Fuckery: Catholic Vote Thinks They're Being "Oppressed" for Being Anti-Gay Marriage

Sigh. So the Supreme Court ruled on Friday that states cannot bar same-sex couples from marrying, and that they must recognize those marriages. A small step forward considering most states still don't have anti-discrimination laws that cover gay, lesbian or transgendered persons. Now, people are angry that the government is "oppressing" their "right" to discriminate. This (all too serious) "PSA" is about people being scared to admit they're bigoted against the LGBTQ community possessing the ability to marry.

I'm not as disgusted as ADWEEK is about this 2 1/2 minutes of cow dung masquerading as something else. But I am extremely disappointed that anyone who's anti-gay would make an attempt to compare their anti-gayness with the very real and tangible effects that discrimination has had on the LGBTQ community through out history. Shouts to ADWEEK.

Dope Anti-Drunk Driving Commercial from New Zealand


Any "anti" anything commercial is usually doom and gloom. There is the anti-texting commercial from the UK that is one of the most graphic things you'll ever see, and that includes anything you'd see in a movie. But this New Zealand anti-drunk driving commercial is really refreshing because they don't even attempt to scare you out of drunk driving. Instead, they play on humor to persuade you to be the person who prevents someone from drunk driving. The spot is a few years old, but new to American audiences.
