I Would Do Anything for Love – M&Ms
I wanted to share a cute commercial that grabbed my attention while I was at the movie theaters earlier this evening. It was more entertaining than the movie itself. A love ballad brought to you by the lovable M&M candies. While being tortured, a.k.a eaten, baked and sometimes licked by a beautiful group of girls. Oh, how I wish I was in their place.
Anne Almasy Ad Rejected Initially
I saw this ad for Anne Almasy, a wedding photographer on Adfreak and I had to give my two-cents. The whole story was that Weddings Unveiled, a wedding magazine initially rejected (hence this post’s title) the ad because it featured a photo of two women about to kiss. The magazine then promptly received a strongly worded open letter pretty much calling the editors of the magazine spineless for following beliefs not even their own. The magazine backtracked and allowed Ms. Almasy to use the original photo.

And Now, Your Weekly Video Miscellany
Since I refuse to play any meme videos, you’ll notice that this week’s collection doesn’t have gazillions of views. I’m a snob like that. Rather, this week’s content is a love-fact, avalanche back-flipping, condom-delivering foray into cool and smart and funny things. You’ll be entertained, assuming your brain works exactly like mine does. As an extreme narcissist, I can only assume it does. Here you go, like it or not.
Zoosk Puts Go Daddy to Shame With Even Gnarlier Kissing Ad That frog is not much of a prince
Jesse Heiman kissing God’s hands—aka, Bar Refaeli’s lips—for Go Daddy on the Super Bowl was one thing. Nasty, yes, but not bestial. For the latter, we turn to Zoosk, the dating site previously best known for its lecherous heart-puppet slobbering on a laptop. This new spot takes shock-kissing to a whole new level, as the girl (after a long pause to get up her courage) sloppily makes out with a frog, who unfortunately never turns into a prince. (The thing looks real, too.) It’s certainly appalling, but I’d take issue with the direction given to the actress. Wouldn’t it be better if she were loving every second of kissing Swamp Thing rather than…
