I used to work for that company! When the ads first launched we had almost an equal number of compliments on the campaign as we did complaints. People *VARY RARELY* ring up a customer service line with compliments, so that was quite fun.
Someone also suggested that the next campaign could be for a condom manufacturer, where a man walked around carrying a rooster.
My mother insists that I respond with, "I don't understand that one..."
My mother also believes that gay means quite happy and carefree, that the glass rooster on my window ledge named Richard is simply decorative and that I never, ever point to the round ceramic objects in a bowl on the side table and shout, "BALLS!" If she keeps this up we are buying her a black hoop skirted dress, a little lace cap and a blue sash and renting her out by the quarter hour to the pantomime set.

Are you going to start a splendid beaver gallery? I would suppose your hit count would go way up.
But it would most likely attract the wrong sort, unlike the usual suspects 'round here.
(Oblig) Fnarr fnarr! Whup! etc.

That's one of the best ads I've ever seen.
Beavers...brilliant
you mean gay DOESN'T mean quite happy and carefree?
Not in California... sorry, 'Merkin bias showing here!
My father-in-law used to leave the room if a pregnant woman was on the TV screen. This would have definitely put him off his cocoa.
Yay, why can't we have ads like that in Blighty?!
