Finally, an Ad Campaign Aimed At Monkeys

    Did I mistakenly load an idle story? Sorry, haven't been here in while.

      Did you come back just to show how much you don't like a site you don't read?

      Wow, sad life.

    When I pictured an ad using sex to sell jell-o, I pictured a jell-o fight between two attractive females. That was an awesome thought.

    Then I pictured the same ad, but with monkeys. That was a less awesome thought.

    I don't think I want jell-o anymore :(
