    When I first saw this last night, I had to think to myself, what has advertising come to? Sharks discussing eating humans to sell a candy bar. Com' on man!!!

    Boys, it's called off beat HUMOR, I thought it was kind of funny. But then I lke a good Snickers Bar, never met one I could say NO to!!! Now if it was a Jerry Springer Focus Group having Ho's discuss the merits of Socialism, that I would object to![​IMG]
