there was an old skit on SNL with Cheri Oteri and John Goodman, where Cheri was the office floozy and really horrible at innuendo. This infomercial makes that skit look positively genius by comparison.

Was it crap?

Absolutely.

Was it genius?

Absolutely.

Was it funny as hell?

Absolutely.

I know everyone has a different sense of humor but I don't think I've seen a person yet that didn't at least crack a smile at this commercial. Me? If it weren't for tile flooring, I would have literally been rolling on the floor laughing.

Axe commercials make me doubt my brain's humour sensor. Was this meant to be funny? I didn't really find it funny at all. Just stupidly bizarre. I don't find double entendres funny.

I thought it was funny the first time I saw it when the ad said at the end 'It gets your balls clean' but then on re-airing it was changed to something not funny, thats when it lost ists lustre if yo uask me.

I don't find such stuff interesting/funny because it's I feel DEs are very cliche.

And if you do appreciate such ads as this one, well, what can I say? Stay in school!

Appreciating something and laughing at it till your face turns blue are two totally different things

Great ad. The British accents are a turn on, and make the commercial in my opinion.
