I mean if it came from a source that it wouldn't seem so inappropriate from it'd be pretty tame

As it is it is ultimate shit for cunts

I wonder if advertising standards can extend to something like this?

How else would you describe these people than Legend Garys?

Rational people who don't get ruffled by some dirty jokes on twitter?

Remember when Gregg's made baby Jesus into a sausage roll. What were all that about?

It is pretty inappropriate when it comes from a retailer though. It's like if a supermarket had a cartoon of someone wanking as its logo.

Some people are claiming that the teabagging woman one is degrading women.

Remember Happy Eater? (what were all that about, dick 'ead? etc.) Their logo was someone trying to make themselves vomit. Bit much.

What if the woman pictured wanted to be teabagged? We don't know the full story.

The sort of shit that boring, thick middle-class housewives think is amusingly risque.

A major retailer is advertising themselves with an ostensibly childish mascot who draws tits on a frosty windscreen and wipes his arse with a toothbrush. Why do you not get what's wrong with that? Would you not mind if Tony the Tiger tucked his tail between his legs like a cock and got the coco pops monkey to suck it?

Well, no. I'd love that.

Yeah, you have rather sold this, cola.

Because it's on Twitter where young children are not allowed. They're not showing these on Cbeebies.

The question is: would Tony's milk turn brown?

I've never liked Poundland. They've always sold cheap produce that fails to satisfy, as is, as it were, and that, you see.

£1.49, Poundland.

I don't think anyone would mind. In fact I'd start buying Frosties instead of Aldi "Frosties" even though it would bankrupt me.

Imagine seeing an advert and not only paying enough attention to remember the details of it, but then going "ooh, that's a good advert". A living hell.

Twitter is just a bottomless barrel of cunts now, isn't it? Utterly worthless.

there's new series of Tarrant On Twitter because of this

Advertising Standards have received complaints and will investigate them

Unless they paid for promotion (which, if they are telling the truth about the budget, they can't have done) then I suppose it's their right to post what ever they want within common decency laws etc

Even if it is unfunny shite
