In the words of the great 21st century philosopher Mr. Lil' Jon "whaaaaaaaaaaaat?" I don't get it

Give me the address of the philosopher, sent him the layout and see if he understands it ...

Hahahaha. I get it but it's juvenile and unoriginal. Not sure if using a tired old middle-school joke in an AIDS prevention campaign is in good taste or advisable.
Lazy stuff, guys. What, do they have 14 year olds making ads over there in Italy?

Guest . You don't get it? Well you aren't getting any either are you? Anyway you look at it you have to cover yourself with a 68 ( sorry I'll owe you one).

is truly poor, but my budget just like my good will, is a social campaign.

Nice ad!

You have to consider that the cool part here is kinda lost in translation.

"Prevention before coming." in Italian is "Ricordati di preVENIRE prima di VENIRE".
It's actually funny for us (i.e. the Italians. :))

That said, I never saw one of these ads.

Il messaggio è secondo me sbagliato. Prevenire prima di venire, può funzionare per una campagna contro le gravidanze indesiderate, ma non per prevenire l'aids. Non mi dispiace nel complesso la multisoggetto. Ti dirò potrebbe funzionare anche senza head. Bye

Ciao, sono interessato a capire perchè sbagliato il messaggio?

i get it prevention is good.. but y do you need a condom for a 69...

AmOgodzzz's picture 501 pencils

[sigh] 69 is a euphemism for when two people perform oral sex on each other at the same time. Called 69 because the way the numbers look. Imagine the rounded parts of the numbers being the people's heads and the other side being their genitalia. Can be used to describe this act being performed by a heterosexual couple or a homosexual male couple.

The lesbian equivalent of 69 is L7. The all-female 90's grunge band L7 took their name from this term. (They're actually awesome and you should all check out their music if you have time.)
