And the many replies both for and against were just as entertaining to read as seeing the ad images themselves. Jaw dropped and laughing, I enjoyed it. As for the purpose of the ad, I have children of my own and love them dearly. But that didn't prevent me from appreciating the message. I fully agree that the ad focuses on those who use condoms more for pregnancy prevention than STD's. Bravo, the ad is supremely catching and all the feedback, both negative & positive, is half the experience. This was wonderful to stumble across.

If you think about it, people who use condoms are mostly afraid of having unwanted pregnancies more then STD's and this is fully aimed at that audience. Though I do understand how it can be offensive to some people how it looks like its suffocating children etc but still at the end of the day its not like a real child is being killed due to condom use so people who see this ad as a negative should really just look beyond the picture and take in the message.

Well executed. To the point and a great visual. Most condom ads depict a couple in bed, people on the beach, yeah that is great and all but this definetly takes a different approach. It is funny and witty. Good work! A very good and different idea. Well executed. To the point and a great visual.

When asked how he would vote, Buffet gave this thought experiment: It is 24-hours before you’re to be born as a baby and a genie appears. He tells you that he thinks you’re a winner and has great confidence in you. So great is his confidence in you - that he is going to let you set the rules of the very world that you’ll be born into. You can set the social rules, the political rules, the economic rules-whatever you like. And whatever rules you set will apply for your lifetime and your kid’s lifetimes too. You think: This sounds great! What’s the catch? And the genie then tells you that you don’t know if you’ll be born, rich or poor; black or white; male or female; sick or healthy; intelligent or slow. The only thing you know is that there’s a lottery with 6 billion different lotto balls and what you start life as is represented by one of them.
