UPDATE: Kia's superbowl commercial was some silly awesomesauce

 

If you lack short term memory, or if you have never visited this blog before, you will not recall the preliminary excitement that I expressed regarding Kia's upcoming Super Bowl commercial (about 3 posts down).  Well, I'm no sports fanatic but even I know that the Super Bowl has come and gone and I just *had* to find that damn little commercial.  

Well I did, and it kicks ass.  Turns out we don't really see a whole lot of Muno, and even though the monkey dude stole the show, it was the bear that got the girl.  You can view its coolness here but you're going to feel like a total loser in comparison. Don't say I didn't warn you. Damn I wish I was a fucking puppet.

So THATS where the black box is!

 Much like an episode of What Not To Wear,  South African airline Kulula has received a facelift after adopting a new branding scheme called “Flying 101.” A creative paint job on the exterior of the carrier indicates where the planes parts are located and includes items such as: front door, nose cone, black box, landing gear and secret agent code. Yes, secret agent code.

The Kulula rebranding effort was accomplished by South African creative agency, Atomosphere Communications, and the rebranding graphics are only a portion of the brands planned business and marketing transformations.  Other changes include items such as high impact environmental consciousness through ‘Project Green’ and simple in-flight entertainment podcasts.

This is how we roll

 

See that big red cyclopse dude? That's Muno, a big friendly monster currently airing on the Nick Junior network.  Debatably Muno also resembles a gigantic dildo although I wasn't aware that silicone could transmit HPV.   Anyways, that's neither here nor there, Muno and his above posse will be making a brief appearance in a Kia commercial during the Super Bowl.  Take a sneak peek at his money shot here. I don't know why this made me laugh so hard, it just did. 

World Health Organization, I have three words for you: What The WHAT?

In 1988 the World Health Organization established World Aids Day (recognized December 1st each year, although I have yet to see the celebratory announcement on my Puppies & Kittens Calendar) in order to raise awareness of the AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV infection.

Somewhere in Latin America a philanthropic foundation called Grupo de Apoio à Prevenção à AIDS da Baixada Santista (GAPA/BS) developed an AIDS campaign with the message “Be pure. Safe sex is never wrong.” GAPA/BS hopes to change the perception of purity, precisely with the belief that to remain pure, all it takes is protection.

Pictured below: Wow, if slapping a condom on it equals purity, then does this mean I am looking into the eyes of godliness? Apparently this deity wants your dog to wear a condom too.

This is your future. Damn! I didn't know the future looked so good...

Pictured above is the latest World Wildlife Fund Campaign - We Are Animals (brought to you by Wrangler for WWF). Apparently their slogan “Their extinction is ours as well” is creating a lot of hype. Funny, I would have thought it was the super buff and beautiful naked bodies washed up seductively on the shores that demanded all the attention. Meh, what do I know?
