any commercial that will make you remember the product/ brands name is a succes, thats the point

there are multiple paths to imprinting brand/ product names into someone's head ;)

It has been brought to our attention that several unauthorized, sexually suggestive advertisements portraying the PUMA brand have been released over the Internet. We are appalled that images like these would be created and distributed under the PUMA name. As a brand, we seek to take a unique perspective toward our advertising in an effort to challenge the boundaries of our industry; however we would never consider using these tactics. We are in the process of researching the circumstances and reserve any legal steps available.
Lying bastards. Seen this one a number of times ages ago. If I found one of my old mags with that advert in i'd call 'em up and hold it for ransom
It didn't have jizz in it, IIRC.

Well, not my copy. What you do with yours is best kept personal.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.
