You know what commercial they should ban? The Planters one with the ugly chick spreading a peanut across her neck. I will NEVER eat a Planters peanut thanks to that commercial. EVER.

People thinking this is in any way gay don't get the message of the ad.
This was already explained on the first page. The deli guy is the wife because of the product. No it is not gay. However, the entire joke of the commercial is that the two men kiss. It grabs your attention. I don't like that. There are other ways of conveying the same joke without involving two men.
 
I thought that ad was pretty good when I saw it. Though living in the world we do I also knew it would have a lot of people complaining. I think we should just have a flurry of gay themed everywhere, that will fix the problem. Especially with half nekkid men. Maybe some lesbo but not much, and they can't be lipstick lesbians.
 
a peck on the cheek would have been better IMO. less complaints plus I think it reflects that artificial 'mom getting everyone ready for school/work' thing better.
 
Whats the big deal with the commercial? 2 dudes kissing is no big deal. If they started going at it like dogs or something, then I'd be upset.

It's good that it was pulled. I don't want my kids seeing that shit.

Well I'm sure if your kids become gay because of some 30 second commercial then you can easily brainwash it out of them.

Or, you know, maybe I don't feel like them asking something that shouldn't be asked in the first place ;).

Was that Robert Deniro? Or someone that really looks and sounds like him? :|
 
I thought it was cute, and I'm a mayonnaise-hating heterosexual.

You know, you don't have to explain the 'gross' parts of it. I don't know why people assume to explain homosexuality they have to explain about gay sex. You don't explain how mommy and daddy fuck to kids.

Just say casually; 'Oh, well two men can be in a loving relationship if they choose, just like a mommy and a daddy.' - there, done, question answered, kid's mind didn't explode or become corrupted.
 
I liked that ad. :[

Because it can be depicted as a gay couple living as a family and having children.
