Well, unless your work has a 'no fat blokes' policy', then yes.

But it is pretty revolting all the same.

its not really that fatness that's the issue, it's more the fact it's on show.

And I don't see what's wrong with it other than the guy not being overly pleasant to look at. What are you doing browsing STW on work time anyway? 😀

Well coffeeking when you start paying my wages you can dictate what I do, until that happens, and I'm failry sure it never will, it has nothing to do with you. Who made you the 'shouldn't be looking at the web in work time' police?

I'm not the web police, I never claimed to be, I dont care what you do, it makes no difference to me but you came on complaining about it, not me! If you're in a place where such things are frowned upon, stop using the internet in work time, simple! The point being that if you're at work you shouldn't be needing to worry about what is work-safe unless your work is browsing STW and also frowns on pictures of fat people.

I'm failry certain most work places wouldn't be happy about browsing pics of naked people, the fact they're fat isn't the issue. In fact some of my best friends are really fat. Untwist your knickers fella, ah but of coures you're not bothered.

But hey maybe I just working in a stuffy place where browsing pics of naked people isn't really the done thing.

Are you serious ? 🙂 I certainly wasn't, but I'm amused by your apparent hypocrisy! Or are you incapable of seeing smiley icons, normally accepted as indicative of a light hearted response...?

That explains it then! Maybe it should also be incapable of seeing fat naked people 😉

Click thru ratio for that ad is 10X the average for the rest of the ads on this site currently.

Now you need to factor that new ads always get more clicks initially but it's still much more popular even taking that into consideration. Funny things ads..

Blokes* will never admit to (actually deny) being influenced at all by ads.
Women* happily own up to admitting they were lead to make a particular purchasing choice by an ad.

This site is 96% male. Who is clicking on that ad?

🙂

*HUGE generalisation

Really? That does surprise me. I'm happy to admit that advertising influences my purchases, for good and bad...

it reminds me of an e-mail from a mate the other day entitled 'dropped the soap'. Now that would be NSFW.
