    Just throwing this out there......Is it just me or does anyone else find Mario Rosenstock's Aviva ad where he caricatures a heavy metal guitarist absolutely infuriating? :mad:

    Aye, we were talking about this here the other day. The second ad where he's making noise on the guitar and then does the 'phone' gesture instead of the 'horns' gesture at the end. *shudder*

    Thought it was funny too,at least it didn't have him worshipping at the alter of Satan and eating the head off a bat or other stupid crap.

    As I mentioned before, I don't like it, but not cause of the metal thing. I didn't like the rugby ad, or the (I think) dog racing one before that. I think Mario just annoys me.

    I think it's a bit 'meh', just because it's not really funny in any sense. I applaud it though because the majority of metallers take themselves way too seriously.

    The "RWARAVIVA" at the end was cringe. I laughed at the start the first time I saw it though.

    Scaarllleeehhhh on him.

    Anyone who'd get offended or defensive by it I'd just have to laugh at. Mind you i tend to think that way for everything. & I'm easily amused.
