I want to say something about a Volkswagen commercial

Edited on Wed Apr-28-10 02:25 PM by ThomWV
There is a commercial playing on television which advertises some model of Volkswagen. In the commercial a number of pairs of actors and actresses are set indifferent scenes and as automobile traffic passes by one of them hauls off and knocks the living shit out the other while saying something perfectly inane, like "black one". This is done to mark the event of a volkswagen passing by.

Do the people of Germany think we are such imbecilic juveniles that we go around hitting each other like a bunch of fucking two-year-olds? Is this the image the germans have of us, that we are such a bunch of barbaric bastards that beating on each other is as normal as a breath of fresh air.

I find the commercial offensive as a son of a bitch, it makes me made as hell every time I see it. Just wanted to share that with you.

On Edit: I also wanted to say, that just because of this commercial I will never, and I mean absolutely never, buy any vehicle Volkswagen makes again - and I have in the past, several times. This just really fried my ass.
