Awesome Anti-AIDS PSAs from France
Now with the late Rev. Jerry Falwell out of the room, I can link to these great AIDS awareness PSAs from France (very NSFW) without fear of being called a “failure as a human being.” There’s one for straight men, one for straight women and another for gay men.
Sadly, there is no way these would ever get played on TV in the states.

How are these cool?
You’re a failure as a human being.

My comment wasn’t that incendiary for it to be deleted.

My bad, must have been a comment glitch. You’re still a failure.

How is this journal conservative, anyway?

Why does Sho’s posting this make him a failure, John? I’d like to know.

John, your blog is a massive failure.

John Goes… to this dude’s church?

Thanks for reading the blog, John. As for your question regarding our conservative nature, feel free to peruse our back issues and our blog archives. Sure, the politics of our individual staff members can vary widely, but on the whole we speak against the general left-wing orthodoxy found on our campus.
Interestingly, two of these ads conclude with the protagonist committing to one partner (a stereotypical conservative ideal, correct?). The remaining ad doesn’t quite do that, unless you believe that cephalo-human relationships should be included in civil union legislation.

Cephalopods need lovin’ too.

“Why does Sho’s posting this make him a failure, John? I’d like to know.”
I read that as a joke. Of course, I’m predisposed to read a lot of things that way.

I consider a great shortcoming in my life that I don’t eat enough cephalopods. Maybe this means that I need Rudy Giuliani to set me straight… but maybe, it means I’m well adapted to a future of increasing cephalopod consumption. Time will tell.

Olly is correct. I would say many people here proved themselves failures at catching that, which doutbless extends to other spheres of life. I’m hardly religious, but this sites treatment of religion, by which I am not referring to Jerry Falwell, who is a heretic, doesn’t seem very conservative to me. Unless you’re using the perenially vague left-right dichotomy, it’s hard to tell what you mean by calling yourselves conservative.
Sho, I think condoms are lame, period. Who wants to have sex with a condom? Answer: no one. If you have to sleep with a slut or ho, do what you have to do, but otherwise why settle?

Because no one wants to settle with the clap John.

John:
I agree with you. I’d prefer not to have sex with a condom. They don’t bring a lot to it and I find myself having to move them around with my hand. At that point, it’s like, why is the condom even here? I can do this alone!
