Lame-mongous from Lynx:
More desperate than Desperate Dan after ten years inside.
And to round things off, here’s the quote of the day from The Situation:
No matter what T-shirt you select, whether it’s fitted, graphic, sequined, bedazzled, crew-neck, deep-V, wifebeater, or what-have-you, it’s about being proud of who you are. If you want to bust out a deep-V that’s safety-cone orange because you think that’s your color, then wear the hell out of that fruity shirt so everybody in the club knows that nobody owns it like you do. Set the trends, don’t follow them. I wear what makes me feel good because I’m at the tip of the spear—the cutting edge of fashion that’s fresh to death. When I see something I like, I grab it. My only system when I shop for fresh apparel is my own primal reaction to what I see, the moment I see it. When I enter a store, I trust my eye to zero in on what’s mint. That’s the single most effective system I have for knowing when to pull the trigger on a purchase. If I find myself hemming and hawing, that’s a clear indication that the garment in question is not destined to make my rotation. I walk away from the rack because I’ve failed to make a connection to those threads. On the other hand, if I know from the moment I see it that that particular piece is going to make me look awesome, I trust my instinct completely and it comes home with The Sitch.
I couldn’t have put it better myself.

You just know that everyone involved in that Axe thing was high-fiving themselves.
CUNTS.
Bet it was written by a pissed-up, knob-head client.
Posted 22 Oct 2010 at 10:42 am ¶I bet the original headline that was presented to the client was:
“For men who’d rather be ON a woman than on a horse”.
But the client got nervous and somehow managed to make it even worse.

Posted 22 Oct 2010 at 12:16 pm ¶Hats off.
Better with ‘on’ yes. But you’ve at least got to give them credit for taking the opportunity. It’s hardly a bad idea. Look around you and you’ll see plenty (sorry mostly) worse ads. It’s a long way from the worst ad you’ll see today.
Just because it’s having a pop at a campaign everyone is wanking over doesn’t make it bad.
You want to see bad? Lets all post our books and we’ll see.
There was a time we used to give a lot of awards to this kind of stuff.
There, I feel better now.
Time to fire some cunt.

Posted 22 Oct 2010 at 3:38 pm ¶I disagree.
Posted 22 Oct 2010 at 4:14 pm ¶You weren’t going to fire me were you ‘Me’. I am a prick and not a cunt just in case you didn’t know. Thanks for clearing that up a while back Ben, it helps one sleep at night.
Posted 22 Oct 2010 at 4:39 pm ¶I work in the agency that has done this and it’s the intention to have it graffiti’d so it says ‘for men who’d rather be with a man than a hore’.
ok, not really.
but you get my point.
