Link Haze, 11/20/09.


• Coco channel.
• Anti-condo installation.
• Rubber fowl installation.
• The Indie Rock Coloring Book—how fucking twee.
• AT&T sics noted 3G expert Luke Wilson on Verizon.
• The Scrubbing Bubbles® are not so cute, innocent.
• Pics (above) from a Russian protest against campus sexual harassment.
• PETA sends our troops "Bin Laden bites" dairy-free (gack) chocolate bars.

(NSFW) PETA targets fur-wearing English schoolboys.

(click ad) Londoner Keeley Hazell, Sun Page 3girl and muse for millions of UK masturbatory sessions, is the latest chesty D-lister to strip for PETA's anti-fur movement. "Be comfortable in your own skin"—easy for the booby bird to say (image via). Previous PETASpokesChests: Pam Anderson. Jenna Jameson. Sherlyn Chopra. And CoreyFeldman.

Bouncing boobs used to promote an actual product benefit.


This sexy, sexist spot by Lowe Brazil is from 2003, but I hadn't seen it before and Russian ad site adme.ru just posted it a couple of days ago. It was advertising the Nissan Pathfinder's front independent suspension. After watching it, that feature is unforgettably burned into my memory. It also brings to mind this old Toyota spot. Previous bouncing boobies spot. Previous horrible Nissan ads.

Branding.



(click image) And this time, the assvertising is not Photoshopped. Dutch ad agency New Message created a branded spanking paddle for Massad, The Netherlands' leading S&M magazine. According to Agency Spy, that's Dutch porn actress Sofia Valentine wielding the sadistic pain delivery tool, which has "Massad the S&M Magazine" (in Dutch) cut out of the paddle. Thus, when Mistress Sofia aggressively spanks a submissive, his/her hiney then belongs to the publication and he/she becomes a Massad brand ambASSador (sorry). This is the first case I've seen of non-gratuitous, perfectly targeted assvertising. Previously in Assvertising.
