Ann Summers, Roy of the Rovers and Rampant Rabbits

It seems that seems that no one, not even the Ann Summers sex shops, are averse to jumping on the World Cup advertising bandwagon. They’re currently using a version of the famous shot of Bobby Moore holding the World Cup aloft in their Irish shop windows. Except it’s advertising their Rampant Rappit vibrators. And it’s drawn by actual Roy of the Rovers artist David Sque.

“What the bloody?…”, I hear you say.

Indeed.
Fustar, who had a hand in it, has the whole sordid story.

    A hand in it?

    I’m saying nothing

    Good one Sinead.

    What’s clever is that it gets everyone chatting like this. Humour and slightly irreverant use of icons always work. Remember the Paddy Power “Last Supper” portrait!!??

    From such humble and inadvertent beginnings are careers in the ’smut’ industry made. Perhaps I’ve found my calling…

  4. Hesitant Hack Says:

    And you let us all know about Cock-Rubâ„¢….

    Hmmm, wonder if that stuff would do anything for RSI, Sinead?

  5. fústar Says:

    If cock-rub sales rise significantly in the next few weeks I’ll be demanding a few bob…or several jars of cock-rub…

  6. Keith Says:

    What a lady. :-)

  7. Hesitant Hack Says:

    Just to add: by “stuff” I meant Cock-Rubâ„¢, the tingle-inducing Ann Summers product linked to by fustar. Not the rubbing. Not the outcome of the rubbing. I’m sure neither of those would do much for your RSI. In, fact…never mind. Good. Glad we got that cleared up.
