The boys from Top Gear are in hot H20 again. People with no sense of humour whatsoever are condemning this latest spoof Scirocco TDi ad, which tells people not to blow their brains out just yet, this car makes life worth living!

Previously they got some grief for this ad, posted here... http://www.videosift.com/video/Top-Gear-Scirocco-ad-Berlin-to-Warsaw-in-one-tank

mm I think mainly folks problem with it is that... well tbh, its not all that funny. It IS possible for this to be funny I think, but the suicide itself is just so.. graphic and in your face, never mind the final shot holding on the body. If you wanted it to be funny, the "shot" itself should have been a punchline, and probably done off camera or something. As it is, its more a shock value commercial than "funny" and it would probably have more people talking about the suicide itself, than the car. NOT the thing you want when showing a commercial.

Exactly... not funny at all. So why are people offended when they ought just be embarassed for the people at Top Gear for making this in the first place?
