This ad from a Caribbean rum producer has apparently been pulled after a protest.

Angostura single barrel rum is a product of the House of Angostura (owned by CL Financial) in Trinidad and Tobago.

This is a newspaper ad that ran at the end of last year.
The headline and tone of the ad certainly contradict the tagline:
"We Know Good Taste."

Change.org sent the company a petition of complaint.
They say Angustora responded, telling them they would pull the ad.

Last March, Belvedere posted — and then pulled — this creepy, rapey ad on their Facebook page.

Florida Gulf Coast was founded in 1991. They're a 15-seed. And they just beat Georgetown.

Florida Gulf Coast, a 15-seed in only its second year of tournament eligibility (the school was only founded in 1991!) defeated powerhouse 2-seed Georgetown.

Florida Gulf Coast led for most of the game, but Georgetown made a comeback down the stretch. Until Brett Comer threw an alley oop that Chase Fieler slammed down. It's the greatest dunk of this year's tournament. (And maybe of the last few tournaments.)

Let's look at that from a different angle.

Amazingly, These Sleazy Ford Ads Are Real

≪ Previous: Lil Bub Is A Totally Comic Book Nerd

Via India. Ford has apologized.

Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and three of his busty Bunga Bunga girls, bound and gagged.

I saw these Ford Figo ads ("leave your worries behind") yesterday, and immediately dismissed them as just another scam campaign.

India is famous for fake award-bait campaigns, and these ads certainly don't look like anything a company like Ford would approve for publication.

And, I was right.

But, the ad agency (JWT, New Delhi) put them on the internet (they were emailed to me by an Indian copywriter), and apparently, Ford knew about them. And that makes them real enough.

Which forced both the ad agency and Ford to apologize.
Read their statements on Business Insider.

Let's see if the agency loses the business, now.

Maybe you can tell, maybe not (the illustration is absolutely horrible) — but that's Paris Hilton with the Kardashians three in the boot.

If VCU had any hopes of coming back from 24 down, Tim Hardaway Jr. put the kibosh on that with a two-handed reverse slam.

The Michigan bench? Oh, they approved.

Happiest of all? Of course, that would be 13-year NBA veteran Tim Hardaway Sr.

A Muslim woman breaks tradition and walks in front of her husband because he breaks wind too much.

"You don't have to stand it."
"It" being his stinky-ass farts.

It's a new ad via Brazil for Dimezin, an anti-gas drug.
At first glance, I thought it depicted a Muslim woman and an Orthodox Jewish man, which scenario possibly would have started another Middle Eastern war.
But the ad is called "Couple" by the ad agency (artplan, Brasília).
I'm sure the 35,167 Brazilian Muslims will just adore it.
