Come on ginger.. LOL... that Ad is totally tasteless.. but I love yah anyway you crazy woman.

You think the ad is tasteless, you should see some of the pictures on the box! It's like something you'd see advertised in Playgirl. In every shot but the video cover the package is center focus and accented by light n shadow. I laughed my ass off when I noticed it. Shit, I'm laughing now. Couple of friends I told about it day before yesterday are still laughing today.

I have no use for yoga mats. But if you put up an auction... to say... ban thewho... now there might be something I'm willing to dust of the ol' paypal account for.

Not as easy as it sounds:

Yeah, that ad really pissed me off, actually, thanks Ginger.

DP - Why did it bug you so much ?
I found it to be within the acceptable realm of absurdity.

I think we have enough going on with this forum as it is. Putting ads like that out.. seems to me we should be reaching out to embrace others.. We are quick to condemn programs for treating gay kids, yet we are joking about gay yoga mats?
A bit of a contradiction i guess.
It doesn't really bother me, but I can see how others might be bothered.

I found it funny (especially after the back story).

Yeah, well I guess ye may feel differently if ye actually were gay and understand what that is like on a daily basis. I agree with Che that we should embrace others instead of being a part of the ridicule which can aid in tearing people down.
Gay people have to indure a great deal of hate and ridicule in this world. Especially in America where they(we) still do not have equal rights.
This is why it bothers me, DDF.

Fair enough.

I apologize in advance for posting this blatantly offensive bit of absurdity:
"Are you so dumb that you actually believe that Jesus loves faggots? In a recent interview, Jesus dispels all myths that he supports any sort of gay lifestyle. If you are gay and you don't believe that Jesus hates you, read on. You may be surprised to find out the real truth straight from the mouth of the Son of God."

Aw DP, I'm sorry. Ya know I love ya dearly. I just thought it was funny as hell cause the marketing is subtly but unmistakably targeted to a gay market. I threw the ad on fornits cause ya'll are about the only folk with a sick enough sense of humor to appreciate it. And I had hoped that somebody might bid on it and have it shipped as a prank gift to a friend. But the auction ends in a couple hours, no bids (damn it!) so I'll just pull the ad from here anyway.
Again, sorry I hurt your feelings. You know I didn't mean it in any sort of demeaning way any more than that bit about you and Tony getting kinky with the car and having to move it all indoors if it went any further. Now that was just WRONG but SO funny!

I have no clue what ye are talking about and I would appreciate it if ye would please leave Tony out of this conversation....he has nothing to do with this. Whatever....if ye loved me dearly ye could have thought it thru first, but ye didn't.
I am totally done talking about it on here at all, as I am highly upset with you right now.

Private channels for the win. I'd take this issue to email or phone for further resolution if both parties are interested in persuing it for the obvious reasons.

I disagree; it should be discussed in group. :D

Heh.
Not every joke about anything is necessarily anti-that-thing. There's no anti-gay sentiment in that prank. I was just examining this thing and it's marketing and packaging with a mind toward appealing to sellers. One good place to take your que on who that might be is to look to the original distributors and see who they're pitching too. Just gave me a snicker when I realized it was a gay market, at least that's probably a faction of their target. Well, that and the fact that it came to my by way of cleaning out student dorms for the Tom Savini school, so a number of thoughts came to me about how it may have come to the student and why they hadn't found room for it when they packed up and moved out.
Anyway, I still have the damned thing. Though the auction is now closed, I'd be happy to take $10 + shipping from anyone who wants it. This is an equal opportunity offer. Doesn't matter your gender preference or anything else, nor either that of the recipient if you buy it as a gift for someone else. Just send, say, $15 to payme@fornits.com via paypal and include a note about what it's for, where to ship it and any special instructions or notes for inclusion or anything like that.
Thanks!

Gay market.
Aisle 5 has only pink bananas and hair spray.

Not to mention who is catching!
