Seen the new Busse add in Blade ?

Oh dear. Apparently have some hate about to come my way...

Seriously? That's their slogan? A bloody skull and "No Regrets"?

Here we go--

Attention Busse Customer Base:

I know the later years of adolescence are rough. Hang in there. Eventually, you'll figure the girls out, get lucky, get married, and have a few kids of your own.

Hanging a poster like this on the wall of your dorm room does not encourage the girls to relax and embrace. A poster like this on your dorm room wall makes the girl feel like she's wandered into the wrong page of a slasher movie.

If you want to impress the girl with your knife skills, take her hiking. Raise a comfortable tent. Show her some foxes, deer and bunnies. Start a fire under the stars far away from city lights. Make her an edible meal after a day of moderate adventuresome exercise. Heat up some coffee to keep her awake.

The next morning, you'll find your need to go all Henry Rollins on us has weakened somewhat.

I dunno, the women I hang with would threaten me with a gruesome -- and strangely, interesting and really fun -- weekend of torture if I didn't buy them a set of sheets like that. Guess I run with a "different" crowd. ;)

But really, "No Regrets"? Don't you think that's just a little over the top?
Dunno, I've heard them yell "No regrets" as long as I can remember.





Congrats StanleyHog!

You're right. I'm redecorating my dorm room with an all Hello Kitty theme. Paging Dr. Lunde...

I found the original post by thermocline offensive and juvenile, but come on, he's apologized.

If his apology is sincere, let's let this go.

;) truly, my apologies.

Not so sure about the sincerity of this one, given the wink. He knew what he was up to. See bold text above. It's called trolling.
 
Whatever your personal thoughts on the appropriateness of the image there is no arguing it is a well executed and rendered image.

As for the skull, blood and 'No Regrets' then I think the adults amongst us can see the add for what it is without getting into any sort of psychological examination of the add.

Anyway i've reacted enough to this troll, Jerry that is a sweet add. Well done StanleyHog.
 
A troll is a troll is a troll - even one that comes in later and "apologizes" with a ;). A post history check doesn't take long to figure it out.

Now, lets stop wasting time on a troll and in the words of the Boss Hog himself Let's Drink!

No baby bottles for the scotch - let's roll.

NO REGRETS!

And - congrats again StanleyHog! That is an awesome piece of work!

Love the Henry Rollins reference!! Good work, though I believe 'No Regrets' may be meant for the gal... Especially after "coffee".

Afterall, these guys are all Hogs, drink gallons of scotch and kill boar with their bare hands and a Hell Razor.... she might never be the same again. :thumbup:
 
They call it "teh internets" for a reason. if you don't get the culture, the comedy, or the references, chances are you won't realize whats serious and whats not.

while no regrets does have a direct reference to "hog" culture, in that you should have no regrets about taking a knife out from under another buyer (as long as it's done legally) and you shouldn't look back on purchases with regrets, you should look forward towards more, or towards future trades. as a life statement, same applies. of course we regret things, but the idea is that active regret gets you no where, apply the lessons to life and move on.

Susan : No regrets.
Bill Parrish :Its a good feeling isn't it?
 
HOGs are too wise and philosophical for general public to fully fathom.

Mmm. Claire Forlani in her most green-eyed beautiful persona.
