who knew?! I didn't realize but tobh I don't know if it would be ridiculous to report it - it's not inappropriate per se, I just personally find it to be revolting and felt the need to tell random people that Wink

aleph- we're seeing the same one- two kids, a baby and an older man all stuffing their faces with popcorn- I just think it's vulgar- but there you go- probably many others who don't Wink

and they're clearing WATCHING US. Look at their eyes as they stuff their faces and watch us.

WE ARE THE SHMORG.




Hidden: 


(because the Shmorg is the yearly video from Oorah. Yet it is US being watched through the screen --- in case anyone needs explanation.)

And yes, I find the ad creepy and kinda crass

Lol.... Bigsis were you a lit major? Sounds like an advanced post-something or other textual deconstruction! Very impressive :-)!!

Just joking.... I guess I didn't look that closely.... But the little guy in the middle is awfully cute!

if this is what you're referencing, the only thing I find offensive is that they portray women as cleaning and guys making a mess ... hm

Thanks Very Happy

Math/science major, actually, but I'm a big reader and I find analysis of literature (or film or music) almost as interesting as the story!

Adblock, my dear, adblock.

(I generally don't use adblock on imamother... but I don't like reading with four pairs of eyes on me! Or was it five...)

gosh you sound just like my dh, that's the word he used to describe it when he happened to see that ad. But then again, he hates it when people's eating habits are unpleasant, he grew up in a home where good table manners were absolutely vital! he gets so upset when the kids eat with their mouths open or dont use a knife and fork Smile

You might have to tell adblock to block specific images.

Your best friend on the internet.

Watch this:

https://vimeo.com/145167993 - This is adblock.


It is a free Chrome extension which helpfully blocks all the Nigerian princes promising to help you lose 60 lbs in 3 days using 1 weird trick, the secret the FDA has prohibited to get a flat stomach in a week, the 1 ingredient you have in your refrigerator that (used in combination with their $60 applicator) will get rid of bags under your eyes, how to get free Viagra, and how you can burn 3000 calories while you sleep.

Comprehendo?
