Can we put these somewhere on the packaging?

1. Skittles may encourage kinky roleplaying behaviour. “Be a bike, baby, be my bike. And I will bring you to heaven.”

2. Skittles may actually be steroids. They both start with S and they’re also both plural. Hey, it’s an easy mistake to make.

3. Skittles may lead to violent tearing-asunder of world-as-we-know-it.

These new ads for Skittles created by TBWA, Toronto made us not want to have seconds. Outcomes take a turn we don’t want to make after the titillating first handful.

We much prefer the Little Lad with the little dance and the I-hate-life! expression. He was so tame in comparison. What happened to that guy?
