That’s how people still think of “geeks” nowadays

It’s from Axe, of course.

Badvertising of the Day: Reebok Germany recently came under fire for appearing to promote infidelity in an ad targeting CrossFit gym patrons.

After a boycott threat from an anti-cheating website, the company released a statement saying Reebok “does not condone this message or cheating in any way.”

The ad has since been removed. 

Copyranter notes that this is not the first — nor likely the last — sexist ad approved by the marketing knuckleheads at Reebok Germany.

Well isn’t that wizard?

A reader submitted this knife sharpener from Fark to us and said it promotes violence against women.

I’m sure we can argue for years and years over whether or not the concept of the Beautiful Assistant is sexist or not, and I’m sure we can all agree that at some point some sexist arsehole is going to see this knife sharpener and think to themselves, “Yes! Stabbing women with knives! I love it!”, but do either of these things make the item itself sexist?

Personally, I’m not sure. So far as I can see it’s just a knife sharpener modeled on an old magic trick. I don’t think it’s any more sexist than ThinkGeek’s pizza cutter shaped like the USS Enterprise, or, perhaps more appropriately, that knife set with a stand shaped like an abstract, genderless human body.

That said, I’m a male, and that means I have male privilege, which may very well be preventing me from seeing this as something other than an innocent and humorous bit of kitchenware. I’d love to hear your feedback.

North Dakota has the lowest tourism rate in the country. So they will try anything! Like this actual creative from the state’s new marketing campaign.

Drinks, dinner, decisions — who can’t relate?

Who knew this was offensive even when used away from tropical get away advertising?

“Come to North Dakota - we have women!”

Who needs alcohol when the average Czech girls look like them?

Nice Budweiser Budvar non-alcoholic beer campaign.

Nice as in disgustingly sexist!

Oh this gives me the creeps.

But how is it a better world if you discover your GF/wife is cheating on you? That sounds horrible!

Oh no it’s a better world because lesbians are sexy and are interested in a straight man’s sexual desires.

Post-it: for the little things you’ll forget

There is nothing wrong with one night stands, but there is something wrong with this trope. 

LG - Because nobody should have to take professional photos of a fat person.

[Thanks, zerofailure. Therofailure. This is, of course, the ad that iamlennymaybe told us about earlier today.]
