Fireworks…Yay!

15 03 2008

fireworkLike everyone else (excluding dogs) I love fireworks, it nearly interacts with all our senses, the bright lights, the banging sounds, the odour of the burning gun powder, it’s all memorizing.

So then you’d expect me to be excited and one of the first people to sit their arse on a prime piece of grass along the Lake Burley Griffin in anticipation for tonights Skyfire 20. But frankly I’m not, I’d love to go and give my senses a explosive high and attempt to take some awesome pics, but Skyfire has turned into a breeding ground for underage (I’d normally say” teen” but kids these days start way too early and before they hit their teens) drinking and debauchery. Which in everyone that is over ages book is not cool. So my senses will have to deal with me sitting at home and doing not much else.

Oh, here’s a TV ad that attempts to encourages underage kids families to checkout Skyfire tonight.





No Beaver Here

Check out this awesome TV commercial for U by Kotex tampon’s, where they are using the term “beaver” as a euphemism for “vagina” and just having some real fun with it with great results.

Because of the “beaver” the Advertising Standards Bureau have been getting numerous complaints and looking into pulling the commercial off the air. What’s wrong with people? Why can’t people just see the humor in it? How is it so offensive to make a formal complaint? I reckon U should have just had the chick walk around with a giant sized vagina and really give them something to complain about. In the end it’s a TV commercial and most people that might have viewed it will forget that they had ever watched it anyways.

Want to smile and giggle? Check out the other vagina euphemisms that the Kotex researches unearthed, my fav…”Hilary Muff”
