Charmin Celebrates Number Two With Manhattan Toilet Promotion

charmin_times_square.jpg

Oh how we couldn't pass on highlighting this headline from AdPulp: Charmin Lets You Squeeze One Out in Times Square. Yes, it's all part of Charmin's cutesy bear campaign that promotes a 20-stall Charmin-branded public restroom to be placed at 1540 Broadway in New York between November 20 and December 31. To promote the toilet, there will be Charmin representatives dressed as toilets (yes, you read that right) who will hand out fliers promoting the restroom's locations.

As what point in your short career as a 'toilet' actor do you take a long, hard look at your life and decide you've hit rock bottom? 'Ho ho ho. Happy holidays. Want a map of places where you can take a dump?'

Thanks, Steve. Sometimes headlines like that are really easy to pull out of my...uh, never mind.

Can you believe this shit... Oooops, OK, BumWipe. I mean Times Square was always the world's number one shithole... Now P&G has made it official... All I want to know is if you were in one of those stalls, trying to "execute a secretion" and all you could hear was gay sex or blow snorting, would this encourage you to go to your local supermarket and buy the 24 pack of Charmin, or go to your local bar and get shitfaced, then go to Times Square and unload... I dunno... All a bit complicated to me. But hey... That's what makes advertising the great fuck up it is...
