Best advert of the year (so far)

What happens when you use the best driving song of all time (as selected by Top Gear, and independently verified by me) to advertise the best chocolate made (as decided by me)?

This..... enjoy.

Brilliant!

I am a Twit, The Sontarans are sh!t

Ok Jon, I've started using twitter now. Are you happy?

I hope you are. Currently I'm so unhappy and angry that I may need to go out and kick a tramp.

What could possibly bring on this foul mood? Why its the latest concept to by urinated on by our old favourite Russell T. Davies, the Sontarans.

Lets have a quick look at them from back in the days when they weren't shite and didn't do silly dance...

How to be offensive, in case you forgot.

Today, while searching for pictures of Tony Gubba (for an animation which will appear soon), I stumbled upon a list of ethnic slurs on wikipedia. It truly is fascinating stuff.

Did you know that the Austrailians referred to the Viet Cong as "Nigel", rather than "Charlie"? (I was a PFC on a search patrol, hunting Nigel down. It was in the jungle wars of '65.)

"Eskimo" is offensive?

"Honky" was derived from an African-American pronunciation of "hunky", the disparaging term for a Hungarian laborer?

And finally, that "Gubba" is an Aboriginal pejorative term for white people? (not just the sandy haired clowns).
