I love Yakuza

One if my favorite movies, Fallen Angels I thought was Yakuza as a kid. No they are in HK.

Ad agencies have jumped the shark with this crap.

I think all these ads with the interracial couples have gotten out of hand, and I recently saw an ad that had took advantage of the trend but added a neat twist.

Early on, the spot looks like it’s for one of those matchmaking companies. There’s a black guy giving a sincere testimonial about what kind of companion he’s looking for....then they cut to a white girl talking about who she’s looking to share her life with. You’re sure they’ll get together, but the black guy ends up with a white cat, and the girl ends up with a black dog.

The ad was for pet adoption. Very clever.

Any chance you would start a thread explaining it to all of us.

I'd read it.

Aren't all conspiracies intentional? The bottom line is I don't give a shite if interracial couples and other diversity-type things are depicted in commercials I don't watch. If you (the general you, not you specifically) are bothered by it, you're probably a half-racist, weak-minded imbecile.
