03.18.2009 the brits are oddly uptight

A commercial for the DVD of the Angelina Jolie movie “Wanted” was pulled off the air in Britain today because some felt the ad glamorized violence.  This could devastate sales of the movie, especially if everyone agrees to unsee the ads they've already seen and then travel back in time to October, which is when the “Wanted” DVD was released in Britain.  The AP says…

The Advertising Standards Authority said the ad for the DVD version of “Wanted” breached ad codes and should not be broadcast.  The authority said the ad — which juxtaposes images of gun violence with Jolie showing off her bare back — “could be seen to condone violence by glorifying or glamorizing the use of guns.”  It was unclear what practical effect, if any, the ruling would have. The "Wanted" DVD was released in Britain nearly six months ago.

Um, I just wanted to look at Angelina pictures.  I don’t actually care if she’s in trouble or whatever all that said, it’s not gonna change how I feel.  I guess that’s what happens when you’re in love.

    I saw the ads and complained for the opposite reason. I felt that the guns made Angelina seem more violent (and, therefore, fuckable, because I think I may have some sort of mental issue which I’m going to blame on the internet and Brenduhn when the inevitable lawsuit happens). That’s pretty much how I worded it to the ASA, but do I get a very very very late ruling? Noooooooooo, no, you just ignore me ASA you pricks….

    I saw “Wanted.” I didn’t notice any violence. Fucking Brits!

    This is the right attitude. Any reason to show pics of Angelina is fine by me.

    Fuck Anjelina, Hamburgers good if you’re hungry. She has too many tatoos, She’s had too many dicks inside her, and now every time I see her, I think of that fug Octomom! At this point, I’d rather fuck Jennifer. What? She’s just gonna scream Brad while I’m doing it, so, no big deal.

    Seriously, just because she has fat lips doesn’t mean she can suck a cock.

    plus…she looks like utter shit as a Blond…and I’m more partial to blonds.

    Europe is so much betetr than the USA.

    Thank goodness they have standards…..and continue the good fight against violence……

    ….see Wikipedia

    English hooligans have begun using Internet forums, mobile phones and text messages to set up fight meetings or provoke rival gangs into brawls.[127] Sometimes fight participants post live commentaries on the Internet.

    Next thing you know …the French will begin to oppose public unrination…..

    http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2007/10/26/French_device_may_stop_public_urination/UPI-22601193427809/

    PARIS, Oct. 26 (UPI) — Authorities in Paris have come up with an ingenious way to put an end to the practice by French men urinating in public.

    Much to the delight of Mayor Bertrand Delanoe they have developed an undulating wall that fires urine back in the direction of the offender, The London Telegraph reported Friday.

    A prototype of the device is being tried out in the Paris area with the highest number of offenders.

    is this really post worthy? like really, this is such filler. just my 2 pennies

  11. Observer 03/18/2009 17:06

    Any post without titties or a salacious take on debauchery is not worth it…..

  12. Rokan 03/18/2009 17:07

    New Brend*n has a weird thing going on. Late night posts, bad jokes . . etc.
    But he called the Natasha Richardson death 24 hours early, so he may be pscychic.

    This must be a conglomerate now…posts 24×7 of useless shiite nobody cares about (Note to self: wash eyes after Obs avi)

    Wow, we can stop looking. We found him Potz is the biggest homo in the history of the interwebs. Potz, you’re queer. Angelina is skinny with big titties, DSL’s and $ to donuts no gag reflex. Oh yeah, she’s fucking rich. Exactly what are you looking for in a woman - other than a large penis?

  15. TheCalculator 03/18/2009 18:28

    Her legs and arms look like Madonna’s in these photos. Gross.

  16. MonyVibescu 03/18/2009 18:30

    I’d shit on her face; but that’s about the extent of my amorous impulse.

  17. Richard 03/18/2009 18:58

    Oh, oh Brad! I mean John!

    I hear they are going to rename “Salt” to “Chocolate Salty Balls”.

  18. 1NOOB2ENDTHEMALL 03/18/2009 19:11

    I also complained and wanted the ads pulled

    because the movie fucking sucked

  19. CynicalYouth 03/18/2009 21:53

    As a brunette, she is someone I wouldn’t want to shoot a load into.

    As a blonde, she is someone I would not want to wake up next to.

    Who is watching those 14 kids of hers? Oh damn, that’s right, that’s that other skank with fake lips.

    John Voit’s failed clone. It became female becuase they had to use a fro embryo to make the whole thing work. And you know how those things change sex spontaneously. man, that was a good time…
