    @MajorRage I've seen him live a couple of times. He is an outstanding performing artist

    I've heard he's good but I doubt I'll ever see a better concert than Prince in Sydney in 03.

    I wish I had along to Prince's "unplugged" concert in Auckland the year before he died. Apparently it was outstanding

    Yeah I didn't make an effort to go to that. Wish I had.

    some fucker clearly had no childhood or teenage years or even close friends that took the piss out of one another and did almost anything they could to embarrass them.

    A concerned viewer complained to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), claiming the advertisement portrayed sexual harrassment and humiliation as funny and socially acceptable.

    It's just a race to the bottom when we capitulate to the perpetually offended.

    well i for one applaud this move. At no time would anyone have thought to even make this ad showing the chick being exposed, so why did they think they could make it with a guy? Equal rights means equal rights.

    Next on my list, ads that show husbands or fathers as being a bit hopeless around the home.

    Haha! He didn't consent!

    To be honest I kind of like his/her point. If people wanna push for "equal" rights for women, then that cuts both ways. We lose out on an ad that's a bit of a laugh.

    So basically every ad involving children babies or cleaning products then?

    @Bones yeah I get they'd simply not do the same ad using a female, and up until a few years back no one would give a shit, in fact most probably still dont, I guess it just highlights how fucked things are...the person that complained was probably just some fucker like those on here sick of all the BS and thought hey, WTF I'll complain about this ad...cos SJWs
