Jesus fucking Christ.

Mother & Garth Jennings

What the fuck were they thinking?

Anyone's who's ever seen Flight of the Conchords will

immediately clock this as a blatant rip-off - right down to 

the glasses-and-sideburns styling of the Jemaine-a-like

and the Kiwi-accented sign off. 

And 'anyone who's ever seen Flight of the Conchords' is 

exactly who this ad is aimed at.

We can only assume they were hoping to get caught. 

Like serial killers who deliberately leave incriminating

evidence with their victim's corpse. Except instead of 

a hair or a glove, these cunts have left a trail of tepid 

shit leading from the crime scene straight to the Tea 

Building where the trail climbs the wall and spells the  

words 'we are thieving cunts' in fifteen foot high daubs 

of anus-paste.

***UPDATE***

Thanks to 'the worried well' for this titbit:

"The guy with glasses and sideburns is Kiwi stand-up

Jarred Christmas, he was a recurring character on the

FOTC show on Radio 4 and a friend of the guys from 

their New Zealand and Oz circuit days."

Not a friend any more, I'm guessing.

You pile of unfathomable cunts. Try doing this with your

fingers - pick up a pen, then place the tip on a blank 

piece of paper, then have an original idea, then write it

down. In the likely event that you fail to have an original

idea, simply reverse the pen in your grip and lower your 

eyeball onto the tip. Then continue to lower your eyeball 

until you are blind. Then continue until your are dead.

Thanks.

Cunts.

I'd been meaning to post this one for a while but couldn't 

track down the guilty parties. But then I received a 

message from Ben at stuffbenfound.blogspot.com who 

delivered not only the team and the director, but 

everyone from the account managers to the animators, 

all served up like a vertiable cheese board of cunts. 

Cheers Ben.
