One's a silly cartoon with fair warning at the start ('round about where it says "Orgasms of The World!"... And the other's a proper TV ad for a Mars PLC product! Post watershed for suggestiveness, admittedly, but go ahead & try and spot a nipple! Unless you live in one of them fundamentalist religious countries? Maybe wiff one of them leaders wot either talks to, or thinks he's God!? Ya know... Like Iran... North Korea... America!!? Mike.

But when something starts with a 5 second title screen "Orgasms From Around The World" there's certainly chance to stop the cartoon. Is the TV advert NWS? How? What are you thinking when you see it?

miked10270 0 #13 December 19, 2005 QuoteMy sensibilities aren't offended. So... What (in your opinion) makes either of these links "NWS"? The cartoon doesn't show "Excessive Flesh Tones" for anti-porn software to kick in, and surely it is primarily a humorous attack on national stereotypes! Isn't it? The TV Advert is a mainstream advert without any indecent exposure on the part of the models. Again, no excessive flesh tones. Nothing is actually "shown"! RSVP, Mike.

AlexCrowley 0 #14 December 19, 2005 Americans are scared of nipples. You can blow people up, watch the Exorcist on TV at 1pm on a Sunday afternoon over dinner. Dont you ever ever show a nipple or you're going to go to hell. That and the lovely moaning makes the more devout types twitch in a way that requires a great deal of self scourging.

Depictions of sex, even if cartoons, even if not showing anything but bouncing cartoon boobs and nothing below their waist. How the woman is shooting out the candy is obvious, even if they don't show it. Look, I also wish that employers would not care about this, but they do, and skydivers that are just goofing off at work might suffer.

miked10270 0 #16 December 19, 2005 QuoteAmericans are scared of nipples. But... BUT... BUT!!!!... There's NO NIPPLES! No Girl Nipples! No Boy Nipples! No White Nipples! No Ethnic Nipples! NO.. EFFIN'.. NIPPLES..! Specifically, for those who REALLY believe that "[gray]The Confederacy Will Rise Again[/gray]", there are NO "Male Negroid" Nipples in any form of proximity to "Caucasian Female" Nipples. C'mon guys... I'm doin' ma best here! QuoteYou can blow people up, watch the Exorcist on TV at 1pm on a Sunday afternoon over dinner. So... If the Malteser had hit the man in the eye & blinded him then that would have been OK!? We could have CGI'd the whole thing to absolute realism!? QuoteDont you ever ever show a nipple or you're going to go to hell. Well... That's me buggered for forming a cult of Boobie Worshippers on this board last week! Incidentally, I don't recall saying that's "NOT WORK SAFE" either. Maybe Y'All worked that one out. Quote... makes the more devout types twitch in a way that requires a great deal of self scourging.

AlexCrowley 0 #17 December 19, 2005 I distinctly recall animated nipples. Yes, even them Remember, the image of Jesus burnt into a grilled (fried for the UKians) cheese sandwich sold for a lot of money. Animated nipples are like satans gumdrops.

Surely there's a limit on how far we MUST go to protect others? I feel we're fast heading into: "Do Not Use This Microwave Oven To Dry Your Wet Dog!" Mike. Edited to add: Gotta go to bed now. There's a pair of amazingly sensitive & excited nipples all ready for my tender attentions.... Admittedly they are MY nipples.... But at least that way I don't get slapped! Tschuess, Mike.

AlexCrowley 0 #19 December 19, 2005 dude you have no idea about how messed up the PC shit is in the workplace here. It's a legal freeforall. Harassment here is any behavior interpreted as harassment. Yes, it is as stupid as that sounds. There is zero tolerance for anything. Hell, I've been disciplined just from threatening to cut peoples heads off with the side of a chair.

miked10270 0 #20 December 19, 2005 Back out of bed (already)! I DID go to bed... ANd I DID confine myself to playing with my own nipples. Strangely... I DID still get slapped!!! ...Somefin' to do wiff "EFFIN' COLD FEET!" Anyway... This gives me time to raise the dichotomy of SKYDIVERS demands to do an intrinsically risky thing (like goofing off at work) in a wholly safe manner? Discuss... I'm off back to bed. SWMBO:(She Who Must Be Obeyed) almost woke up last time I put my cold feet on her back! A coupla' more slaps & I could be onto a good thing!Like they say:... NO RISK = NO REWARD!.... QED!

There was a stack of folk at my work disciplined for circulating a pic of "Miss World Contestants" which suggested that "Miss Portugal" had excessive body hair! The worst of it was that they decided to discipline ALL the recipients of this E-Mail who then forwarded it.... INCLUDING (mistakenly) the person who blew the whistle on it!!! I wasn't involved in this - for the simple reason that I use my work PC exclusively for WORK... And my home PC for play. It's really the only safe way. Regards, Mike.
