Banned PETA Commercial

[ChromeAlchemist]

oh deary me, PETA are getting desperate aren't they?

Oh well, the day I take Cabbage over pork is the day it is being jammed into my lifeless mouth.

 

[Enigmers]

Studies show, meat-eaters have more enjoyable meals. And, unlike sex, meals happen three times a day. (unless you're the kind of person who visits brothels daily, in which case you're hardly the kind of person who's become a vegetarian)

 

[Hey Joe]

Yeah! I'm totally going to have sex with a head of lettuce!

...

Wait, that's not the point of that ad? Seriously though, I don't think that's any worse than the Jessica Simpson ad from a few years back, but then again ever since Nipple-gate the Superbowl has been cleaned up quite a bit.

 

[Blind0bserver]

Oh PETA, I just love how you take a strong moral stance against animal cruelty but have no problem objectifying women and making them sex object by parading around naked just to get your message out. It just helps reaffirm a long standing theory of mine that PETA doesn't care about people.

Of crouse PETA don't care about people. Racisism, sexism, totalitarian governments, famine, drought, war, civil unrest, human sickness...meh, who cares, let's save the animals. There is a good episode of South Park about it actually.

I think the ad needed more "sea kittens"

Coincidentally, that South Park episode is where that comment came from. Allow me to demonstrate:

Spoiler: From South Park Episode entitled 'Douche and Turd'

MR. GARRISON
All right, children, I have just been
informed that since our school has been
attacked by eco-terrorists for the 47th
time, we are going to change our school
mascot.

CLASS
AWWWWWWWWW!!!

STAN
Buh, Mr. Garrision, if we change our
mascot, that means the eco-terrorists
win!

MR. GARRISON
That's right, Stanley, the eco-terrorists
win. Now, I have here a mascot selection
sheet. Every student is supposed to
check the box next to the mascot they
like the most. And the most popular
selection will be the school's new mascot.

CLYDE
But we like being the Cows!

DREADLOCKED PETA MAN
(After throwing a bucketful of red paint on CLYDE)
You're responsible for the enslavement
and genocide of millions!

MR. GARRISON
Get, get outta here, PETA! We're changin'
the mascot already!

DREADLOCKED PETA MAN
Who'll speak for those who cannot speak
for themselves??

MR. GARRISON
Go on, get, get outta here! Get, get
out! Jesus, where do they keep coming
from?? Go on, get outta here.

STAN
This is bullcrap, dude!

MR. GARRISON
Now children, it's not that bad. There's
plenty of great new mascots on the sheet
to chose from. The Hurricanes, the Blizzards,
the Redskins, the Indians...

WENDY
But aren't Indians and Redskins just
as offensive?

MR. GARRISON
No, those are fine. PETA doesn't care
about people.​

The defense rests, your honor. No further questions.

What the fuck? That was a fucking horrible commercial. Using a stupid tactic (obvious sex appeal) to make a stupid (and probably completely unproven) point. Really? Vegetarians have better sex? How the fuck would being a vegetarian improve sex? And what's "better" sex? People doing the study measured how "good" sex was between vegetarians and non vegetarians?

Good for NBC to ban that. They probably did it because they knew how stupid it was, not because of the sexual content. Or, I hope so anyway.

Fuck PETA. They're really going to push me to kill them one day.

Also:

Oh PETA, I just love how you take a strong moral stance against animal cruelty but have no problem objectifying women and making them sex object by parading around naked just to get your message out. It just helps reaffirm a long standing theory of mine that PETA doesn't care about people.

This.

It's better than the Sea Kittens affair. That's really all there is to it.

Yeah. That sea kittens thing was really bad.

But still, the average superbowl viewer, enticed as they might have been, will not give up meat. Like me. I still like my veggies, but I won't give up meat for a loooooong time.

 

[KittywifaMohawk]

I truly don't know why I found that so funny.
I truly just died of laughter right there.
Why is it so funny? Because it's pathetic.
God PETA just needs to stop....

VEGETABLES ARE SEXY.

Sorry, but I felt like shouting it out loud, but my roommate gave me a strange look when I got to, "Vegetab-" and I stopped.
But seriously, isn't it a tad creepy?

 

[BigCat91]

Well good to see that peta is as thick and absent minded as before.

really if they could only comprehend the thought that animals eat other animals, and that some of those things such as lions or tigers, actually kill their pray worse then we do.

 

[theultimateend]

If they really wanted me to give up meat, they should make plants that taste like steak. Whinging at me and holding stupid, misguided publicity stunts won't convert me. Bring on the bologna bush!

That may have been a joke but I really think making convincing alternatives is the easiest way to get people to go vegan.

I mean if you could provide me with fake bacon that tastes, smells, and feels like real bacon but has none of the fat I'd be all over it.

I have trouble believing we can give 80 year old men erections with one pill but can't devise convincing meat alternatives.

Ps.

PETA are fucking idiots; the sea kittens, going after COOKING MAMA, and just the average everyday stuff by PETA members. Back in high school we had this girl who ran around putting stickers with stupid slogans on everything and it really got annoying. Not to mention the petakillsanimals.com debacle...

SCREW YOU ON ONE FACTOR (the rest is good ;D)! Sea Kittens is the greatest idea in the history of this organization.

Who here doesn't want to go to a resturaunt and order "Deep Fried Sea Kittens."

Or as Stephen Colbert Joked "Now I can enjoy the delicacy of land fish"

 

[mattttherman3]

Oh dear, I suddenly have an urge to eat raw broccoli. No doubt becoming a vegetarian would help me get the ladies, because I just might lose some weight but I don't wanna eat vegetables, they are evil.

I'd say it's more than a "tad". Why try to link "sex" and "vegetables" together into one train of thought? The only time I can even remember someone even trying to link the two together was when a co-corker of mine tried to tell both myself and a couple of my fellow employees about a "video" he saw on the internet involving a woman doing something with a cucumber that mother nature never intended to happen. Granted, there was a multitude of things wrong with that, the biggest one admittedly being that this guy thought that was proper work conversation, but I'm sure trying to associate a vegetable with sex has to be one of them.

Now if you'll excuse me, I feel dirty for remembering that conversation. I think I'll go throw up now...

 

[Avatar Roku]

EDIT: I also wonder if they were trying to appeal to veggie fetishists.

Well, they'd have to be really stupid to go after veggie fetishists, considering they're probably already vegetarians. Yes, they'd have to be very stupid indeed. So, the answer must be yes.

 

[Pyro Paul]

I would of banned the commercial because it is a straight Lie.

their proof 'Veggy eaters are thiner and more fit' and 'meat eaters tend to be fatter'
ergo, thin people better in the sack than fatter people.

when infact, eating protin (meats) will allow increased and prolonged sexual desire and drive as well as increased stanima and endurance leading to longer more enjoyable sessions. Where as eating fruits and vegitables acctually decreases your sexual drive and the Sugars in fruity plants will create a temporary energy boost but will quickly be burned out leaving you tired very quickly meaning shorter less satisfing sessions. This is why in many cultures natural aphrodsiacts tend to be key organs of certian animals which do some times show to have some effect (in which these organs tend to be very high in protin)

the people that made this commercial seriously need to take a human physiology course...

Puff Daddy and his goons slaughter them all. Nothing like mass murder to teach us all a lesson about PETA. I love that episode because politicians are personified as either the "giant douche" or the "turd sandwich." Good stuff.

 

[YouGetWhatsGiven]

That is just kind of silly. No matter what you do or how you do it, unless there was no meat left in the world, people will not stop eating meat.
