Edge TV-Edge Gel Girls

OK. Um. Yeah. What exactly is the advertising angle here? I mean I know about the first part, that it is every straight guy's dream to have gorgeous women fight a "shaving cream war" on his "stubble", but what's the deal with the second part -the green, wanton, rocket girls who apparently carry a scent that is appealing to men, so that they can be appealing to women. How is that part attractive to either sex?

But I suppose the ad does "get a man going."

Exactly where he is going is still questionable. If a man told me that he had a fantasy about women rocketing up his nose for an erotic nose disco, I believe my answer to the question of where he is going has to be, "I don't care where you go, but get your schnoz the hell away from me," followed by, "The answer to going up your nose in any way or form is and always will be no! I'm definitely not into that."

Bizarre.

There are about 300 different ways to say "That is horrendously stupid." But I think I'll stick with the simplest form.

That is horrendously stupid.
