This website contains material for my amusement only.
This is the part where I tell you to be kind to animals, to help little old ladies across the road, and just give other moms who are having a kak day a bit of a gap from the insistent need to offer them advise on how to control their child losing his/her shit in the bread aisle at Woolworths.
My stuff here is {mostly} my own thoughts - and I do not amend my speech to adjust to your map of the world, or an advertiser or in a bid to make money from my blog.
I think that ship has already sailed.
If the word FUCK offends you --- please step away from this blog, it is really going to offend you.
Some days I am really proud of shit I say, some days I am embarrassed - some days I have no recall of what happened yesterday.
This site may contain personal misinformation or stuff written for stuff sake. A fair deal of swearing, and moaning goes on here.

found this about it – apparently KIA does not have anything to do with the ad?

/ July 14, 2011Good to know – I saw it on an ad award site and it did not indicate that it was not a Kia approved advert – but good to know, I will take Kia out of the “sh&t brands” box now.

/ July 14, 2011Its bad, but I dont actually get it ? Can someone point me in the direction of the punchline ?
reluctantmom
/ July 14, 2011I think the point is that the Kia can switch between two temperatures ….. innocent and paedo.phile with one easy click of the temperature gauge … or something of that nature ….

/ July 14, 2011I also had to read it a few time to actually believe it!!!
With all the sexual abuse and rape of students by teachers in SA and elsewhere it is a bit insensitive and a bit crass to me.
Dont like it at all!

/ July 14, 2011Yes, that is the advertising industry I know. I am sure every ad agency has a list in their office of taboo topics that forms the basis of most ads. The devil is an advertising director! Ha ha.
