No Buts About It: Toilet Ad Draws Mixed Reviews
Bare Bottoms On Times Square Billboard Set To Debut In Early July
by Hazel Sanchez
NEW YORK (CBS) ― A risqué billboard to sell a personal hygiene system is going up in Times Square very soon, but some New Yorkers don't think the ad is, well, as clean as the product it's promoting.

Well, at least it will give punsters a chance to try out their best lines.
Going to be hard to explain to little kids why people on a large sign have no pants on, but yet if they do the same thing (pull there pants down in public) it won't be funny, and they will be corrected. It is sending mixed messages. Call me old, call me old-fashioned but to sell a toilet you don't need to show naked bodies, it shows a lack of morality. Right above a church yet, it shows a lack of respect. The root of all evil, money. It is all about money.
Here's a little more on the story and a different version of the ad: http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/20...-not-so-naked/
Now I can't get that whole "cleanliness is next to godliness" thing I was brought up with out of my head. Better go wash up again!

Just a very hard thing to explain to kids that makes sense to them, why that is ok.

that is kind of cute.....
looks like two of them are guys butts...
I wish my butt looked as good as those guys do.......
if they put my butt up on their billboard , mine is so hairey,
many people would think it was an apes butt.....
