annoying new advertising...

[zzaapp]

Has anyone else in the Cincinnati area heard the radio advertising by the transplant pusher here?  It encourages children to ridicule bald guys by playing a new game called "See Spot".   The ad tells them that when they see a bald spot on a man's head, they should point and yell "See Spot!!!"

It is just another example of the depths to which some people will stoop to sell a questionable product.

thats seriously weak...

[PigPen]

That's stupid

[wpruitt]

As susceptible as kids are to the hype of the media, it will happen.

Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

[Timmay]

is that a PC thing?? 

[Tyler]

That's like us creating a video to teach kids how to pick out guys with hair plugs and laugh at them.

Well, they won't see a "spot" on this head, it's always shaved clean----I wanted to get rid of the "spot" and I did like most here.  If my child ever said anything like that to a fence sitter, I'd slap them clean into next week!

Well, let them enforce it.  As a lawyer I really get swelled at unenforcable legislation , it's just a publicity stunt by legislators.  A child can't appear in proper person and unless the spanking gets to physical harm, it's not actionable under any sane system.  And another point, psychological cruelty is never mentioned--withholding love, attention, etc. 

sorry everyone, I'll get down from my soap box now.

When do children listen to the radio? I think most are listening to their iPods, or playing with their Wii.

Rather than actually appealing to children, I think this is intended to prey upon the insecurity of a guy with MPB. It's still pretty low.

2 ridicule anyone 4 an advertising promo is just plain wrong.  it just goes 2 show ya that idiots still populate this planet.  it definitely won't make me purchase a rug from the "rug pushers".  it is just their desperate attempt 2 promote their product.  oh well... call me spot... i'm gonna keep my dome smooooooth!!!

One of the reasons I keep my dome sly is that one of the last times I did grow the hair back, a co-worker noticed the "spot" in the back.  Fortunately he wasn't trying to be mean.  When I had first started that job, I had hair and only the front was receeding.  So when I grew it back, the "spot" appeared.  Forturnately, going sly has been a confidence builder.  But I do think that making fun of people's appearances is pretty low.

Thats true bro, a kid on the bus tried took a five right out of my my gf's purse while she was getting her cellphone out. On instinct she bitch slapped the poor kid to the ground. The mother had a horrified look on her face but I think she knew my gf was in the right there.
