Funny or not

By ezou

Funny or not here it comes


Actually I don’t get it, we pay billions for the awareness of the endangered species, and simply a well respected company like VolksWagen just symbolize the power of it’s vehicle and space by putting an imprisoned or kidnapped elephant which is by no concept funny, I don’t know correct me if I’m wrong

    I don’t find it funny, they also have an ad where a terrorist sets off a bomb in the car..they “Volkwagon” do push the limits when it comes to humor

    Welcome to my humble blog.
    Actually the one that the bomber blew himself was done in the UK and it was funny untill the terrorists attacked the subway then it turned provocatif :S

    @Michelle

    wtf? Not funny at all. Especially for a SA, we had a huge scandal a couple of years back about elephants who were being abused and beaten in captivity.Not funny VW.

    Ezou,
    The ad is obviously directed at Hisbollah or Hamas. “VW Touran, for all your kidnapping transportation needs”

    i’d like to know all the thought that went into putting this picture out.

    Never mind how they really feel about it, didn’t they anticipate how others could feel?

    Nice blog btw!
