    Shocking

    I saw this poster in the pub on Saturday and was genuinely shocked, I was actually going to complain myself. Just what the hell did they think they were doing? I can't see how anyone could have possilby thought that this is an acceptable advert.

    If they had an advertising agency, I presume they aren't using the same one any more, if it was internal - and this does suggest internal advertising - I hope someone has been sacked.

    Also, when did advertising gambling at all become legal?

    Title

    No Biggie.

    Don't see what the issue is, unless it's the PC brigade being upset with the line:

    "You love sex. She loves sex. You love money. She loves money. You have money. She loves you."

    Which is true anyway. Most guys know that a woman's love for men is directly proportionate (being exponential near the peak) to the man's net assets. :-)
