Facebook, will you stop at nothing?

16 Feb, 2009 poetry, words cordaround eww facebook marketing metaphor seriously simile soft vagisoft words

So, today’s “random” facebook ad was a departure from the slew of “lose weight for your wedding” themed missives. (Thanks Facebook! runs off in a huff, slamming doors and crying.)

Nope, today, facebook was telling me I needed vagisoft. MUCCCHHH better right? Well yes and no. it’s not what you’re thinking. or is it? Well, anyway, apparently vagisoft is pants (soylent green is people) and they are really really REALLY soft, according to their website, THE CORDAROUNDS BLOG, which, in fact, declares them

softer than a silkworm’s anus.

Seriously. That’s what it said.
And then they illustrated it, here:

I clicked on the ad (why? WHHHHY?) BECAUSE, dear readers, I thought it would be something from the onion. It had to be right?

But it wasn’t. it’s fer real and obviously only for hipsters way hipper than me. that or it’s a social marketing experiment. but no, i think it’s pants. heh.

Why did I share it with you? the power of language can be used for good and evil or just plain silly. Besides, given my last few posts I didn’t want you to think I’d gone soft. SOFT! Get it? like a marshmallow womb cloud kitten soft, people. Enjoy your sleep 😉

So just how soft is the womb of a marshmallow mermaid? I guess I will never know since the Vagisoft product falls short of my every hope and dream 🙁
