How good would that girl feel about herself after this? I know she did it willingly but still.. Besides, not all men look close to perfect like the ad seems to imply.

Disturbingly enough, I believe this is actually targeted at women, not men (there are a few comments on there that indicate it, e.g. the one about being able to wear a bikini without working out due to the ugly girlfriend).

I work in marketing (used to be for a beverage company too, funnily enough) and if an agency ever pitched this idea to me I'd tell them HELL NO... First of all because it's so polarising to the consumer.. second because it's not actually funny... and third because it's just wrong!!

oooh maybe. I was able to google and see a screenshot, but woulda liked to see all what the other specktrettes could see.

still sounds skeevy, but if I do consume alcohol (too many wasted cals for me atm) then it won't be Bacardi.
