Olympus Aids Breast-Obsessed Men

With Super Bowl XLII behind us, we can now turn our attention to more pressing matters in the advertising business: the use of female cleavage and breast-obsessed men to sell stuff. Yea, yea, yea, who wants to read another story about some stupid ad that uses boobs to sell stuff? Oh, you do? OK, let’s continue then.

Where were we? Oh, staring at boobs…uh…rather writing about boobs. Sorry. We are easily distracted…sort of like the four guys in this Olympus E-3 ad who can’t help themselves from staring at this woman’s breasts which spill forth as she leans over to adjust her shoe. Come on guys, you know you do it all the time. Your eyes immediately dart downward while at the same time you try to maintain some sort of respectful, non-gawker-like look on your face. And you wish you had a camera at that exact second to take a perfect pictures of that perfect…uh…pair.

Well, thanks to the Olympus E-3, which claims to have the fastest auto focus, now you can. Although you’re still going to look like a pervert with a camera aimed directly down the woman’s shirt. When Olympus can give us glasses or contact lenses with an embedded camera, you’ll at least look less like a perv and you’ll help Flickr become an even more interesting place.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
