Uh Oh. The Wimpy Swimmers of America cause group is about to get their undies in a twist. As will, no doubt, Bob Garfield. Yes, after its Speedwalker ad offended gays (and Bob Garfield), which we never quite understood, Snickers is out with another Mr. T ad which takes on wimpy “toe dippers” who cower at the thought of swimming in water that isn’t a perfect 85 degrees.

“You makin’ me mad, sucka!”

“It’s time to get in the pool, fool!”

“Take that, toe dipper!”

“I hate flying so this better be the last time I hear you crying!”

“Get some nuts!”

Yea, baby! Classic Mr. T.
