I think that is hilarious!!! People are so friggin' uptight. My dad used to call him Spongebob Squareass. I think it's appropriate now that I just saids that.

I saw this commercial the othr night, and right away I said: oh boy, here comes the unnecessary controversy. People just need to lighten up. If parents are so offended by their kids seeing this ad, then they should probably take them out of school, since you see and hear 100 times worse things there. People just need to relax.

i'm not a prude or whistleblower, but i do think it is inappropriate for the age group who they're marketing to. the sexual overtones and the exploitation of womens body parts sends the wrong message and is degrading. i don't think this was well thought out.
