I can’t imagine it remaining there for long

I wrote about Ashley-Madison, the dating service for unfaithful married women and the slimy men who want to hook up with them back in August. My coworker James, who drives into Accordion City from the satellite city of Pickering via the Don Valley Parkway,

informs me that they have a new billboard near the “Downtown” exit. It

features a rear-view picture of a very relaxed man on a couch with his

arms folded behind his head in that “aaaaah” kind of way.

The kicker, however, is the caption inspired by the American Diary Farmers’ ad campaign slogan: “Got blowjob?”

Yeeeeesh.

Ashley-Madison have gone from scraping the bottom of the barrel to just

licking its underside. Naturally, the word “blowjob” on a billboard

will raise enough ire that it will get taken down in short order, but

that’s probably part of their tactic, which I like to call “stunt

advertising”.

Still, I’m curious. Can anyone get a picture of this?

  • That billboard, sans slogan, is at the corner of Wellington and Simcoe, too. It's one of those "What's that billboard for, anyway?" billboards.

    This one actually says "blowjob"? Yeesh!

  • "Poetically?" This is marketing aimed at guys looking to score with restless wives with dubious morals. The closest this demographic wants to get to poetry is:

    Roses are red

    Violets are blue

    Get on your knees

    And gobble my goo

    Trust me on this one.

  • Hahaha, you're such a romantic!

    How about the woman's point of view:

    Roses are red

    Violets are blue

    My husband won't give it

    I'll get it from you

  • Any billboard company agreeing to put up this ad would need a morality check themselves.

  • Whoa. I can't imagine this company advertising at all here in Rochester, let alone the words "blowjob" on a billboard. Amazing.

  • A few months back the company issued a press release saying that, according to a survey they conducted, Red Deer was the infidelity capitol of Canada.

    Who knew?
