Cutest commercial - gorgeous strangers: man & woman reclining at the beach discussing

his crappy and her cool Kindles. Appears to get a little flirtatious, when the man wants to "celebrate" after he E-orders one like hers. She gently rebuffs him by responding "My husband is bringing me a drink right now!" To which he says, "So's mine!" and they both turn around to look at two gorgeous men at the bar waving back at them.

Beautiful, accepting, normal commercial - it would have made Harvey Milk proud. Harvey Milk - one of the greatest Civil Rights leaders of all time. Up there with Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Cesar Chavez, Susan B. Anthony, etc, etc.

They want Geico to pull the pig commercial...they say it promotes beastiality. Seriously?? A commercial with a pig and a girl is going to make people want to have sex with animals?

when they equate a Talking Pig with beastiality?

Why is that the first thing some think of?

Who is really twisted here?

(It was a royal 'you' which didn't come out that way)

This was a side topic to the OP and refers to those offended by the pig.

Sorry for the confusion.

Gone are the days of sitting in a swivel chair at a keyboard and monitor.

Now they get a big poofy recliner and sink into it.
