Talking Keep your kids away from Maoams - there's porn on them!!!

And you thought they were innocent candies.

Clearly the wrappers are pornographic, and this article clearly states others think this way!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddr...-wrappers.html



......personally, I like the fact that if you have a cherry Maoam, you're guareteed to see a three way!!

It's kind of like Starbursts, but much sweeter and the fruit flavors are mixed together.....probably because of all that sex they're having .....

Man, honest, who cares, it's just a picture. Honest, if people worried more about the tons of waste they learn from religious sources instead of worrying about who's having sex with who, our world would be a better place.

So now this means that instead of someone saying "Yes, I buy Playboy, but only for the articles", now they say "Yes, I buy Maoams, but only for the candy".....

One of the first things I learned in my psych 101 class was if it looks naughty, it almost certainly was intended to.

It's worse than you think. The green thing isn't a lime, just a green, unidentifiable blob. Who obviously has a lot of fun of the fruity kind.

Is anyone else more concerned with the butchering of a fantastic Shakespearean name by the father? Of all the names he could have chosen for his child he picked Ofelia.

Well, it's possible that there may be some people who see how pornographic the "p" and the "h" look together.......

That's the Spanish spelling. My late mother-in-law was Ofelia.

"The lime, who I assume to be the gentleman in this coupling, has a particularly lurid expression on his face. I demanded to see the shop manager and, during a heated exchange, my wife became quite distressed and had to sit down in the car park."

This is a priceless piece of Puritanical prudery.

The bottom line appears to be that an argument, which the claimant started over marketing materials the shopkeeper did not design nor influence in any way, caused the claimant's wife to "sit down in the car park".

What is the world coming to?

I don't know if it is the power of suggestion but that lime certainly looks like it is getting funky with the lemon.
