Picture 1-134 A humanoid octupus gives a lap dance to a bear in this TV commercial for Orangina soda. It's funny, but I prefer Orange Crush myself. Link (Via VSL)

    From Wikipedia: “Orangina is a carbonated soft drink made from oranges and tangerines.”

    Sounds to me like if one felt like calling it “orange soda,” it would be justified.

  • gobo

    I suspect this campaign will cause a lot of people to say things to their friends like “Ick! Now I feel uncomfortable and have to sleep with the lights on! I’ll never drink Orangina again!”…. and then wonder why they’re having thoughts of sexy bunny girls getting sprayed with Orangina the next time they see it in a store.

  • Sephacus

    I apologize for potentially adding to the level of disturbance this video already has, but the colour of the Orangina definately gives the video a “Golden Showers” theme. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_showers

    When I saw this up yesterday, I thought the headline said “Orangina’s funny TV commercial”. The only thing funny about furries, IMHO, is that I have to laugh or I’ll scratch my eyes out.

    It seemed as though we had reached that point where furries could co-exist safely among higher life forms. Having re-read the headline correctly, I stopped worrying about invading hordes of naughty people in animal costumes…for now. ;)

    Mark’s had his fun and now its time to
    Serve his conscience overseas
    Coming in fast, over BB?

  • Wes Kim

    Given how disturbing I find this video, I know I should never try to watch “2 girls 1 cup.”

  • sonny p fontaine

    circuit4, you beat me to it.

  • extra88

    I saw this last month in jwz’s blog. He doubleplussed the wrongness by taking a particularly freaky clip and making a slo-mo animated GIF out of it.

  • FunGuyFromYuggoth

    It looks like there is an Oran-gina after all.

  • Bonnie

    I’ll never look at my deer head the same way again.

  • CapnMarrrrk

    I have to blame the Internet for perving up anthropomorphic animals.

    Still though, it’s quite a lush commercial.

    If anything remotely resembling the creativity that went into this ad showed on American TV I’d reconsider the the jump button on my DVR.

  • slamorte

    i dunno man, the internets didn’t make that lapdance happen. that was fully orangina’s doing.

    i find this very disturbing. i don’t know why, but it’s totally put me off the beverage.

  • anutron

    Yet another proof of rule 34.

  • zikman

    Orangina is not orange soda.

  • help i cant comfirm my username themelonbread

    I used to like Orangina before I saw this commercial…

  • Panpan

    To people who don’t know French, the lasciviousness seems completely gratuitous and disturbing.

    However, the commercial does make sense in French because Orangina contains pulp. “Pulpeuse” is also said of a woman with full and sensual forms.

  • boinger

    Orangina has a taste similar to squirt mixed with orange juice, it’s definitely not an orange soda at all.

  • h3llc4t

    DO NOT WANT.

  • Benjamin

    I fear a unicorn chaser. :_ (

  • Chris Tucker

    The less said about Great Cthulhu’s sexy teenage granddaughter, the better.

  • horsepj

    Disturbing? Ha! Disturbing to me was alt.sex.barney. die.die.die.die.die.die.die.die, but that was the early ’90′s.

  • loftwyr

    Anthropomorphic animals were sexualized long before the Internet, Furries just found each other easier since the Internet made swapping FanFic easier.

    As for this ad, I think its funny. And I made a nice screen cap icon for use in my blag.

    You people are prudes ;)

  • Jeff

    Jeez, as if humans acting like animals isn’t bad enough, now the animals are looking like humans. But, I’m sure some of these chimeric beings will show up in Second life. What kind of animal would you be? I guess I’d opt for killer whale or maybe a chipmunk.
