Harmless Fun Or Too Far? Posted by Dan The Internut 20 January, 2010 - 4:00 PM


Air New Zealand are fast becoming known as the 'black sheep' of the airline industry for their saucy ads.

Not content with baring all for an inflight safety video, now they have gone and angered various support groups with their cougar ad.

Watch the video and let us know if the Kiwis have gone too far this time?

    Are you kidding me? They're complaining about that? It's just a funny ad.

    Another example that we are getting too politically correct for our own good. Its humorous.

    good to see that so far no-one findz this offensive!! In NZ recently they were asking us Kiwis who found the Aussie cartoon "Beached Az Bro" offensive...?! Fortunately all Kiwis said they found it funny too!! See we Kiwis/Aussies really are on the same wave length!!

    well, if they get too "political correct", remember Kevin "B*" Wilson's words. "IF IT IS POLITICAL, IT IS USUALLY NOT B** CORRECT".
    nothing wrong with that advert!!

    It's funny - 'cos it's true. Maybe a bit too close to home for some - that's why they're offended?
