Oh how I LOVE this. I never understand why ad's use cursing though. I like it, but it would never fly on TV.

yep, the robert-de-niro-cursing was the only thing that bothered me too. but very nice anyway...

this was awesome. and i say props on the swearing because thats how people talk, especially de niro. and a guy accusing a donkey of trying to fuck his wife is a good unexpected touch especially around the 45second mark, but the music should have cut out during that part, then kicked back in as the "a little de niro" text came up.

Minus the F words, I really like this ad. It's fun - I've sent it to half a million friends.
