Marketing Slogans Break Wind. ^_^
^_^
I was just reading about the UK Mars Bar on Wikipedia, as you do when eating a Mar bar, sometimes....=P..O_O...no? Just me? Oh well...
And it listed all of Mars' advertising slogans in different countries.
This one amused me:
"Nimm Mars, gib Gas" (Take Mars, step on the gas) - Germany
..because it sounds like, Nibble on Mars, and get Gas ...i.e. wind, and farts. ^_^.
Sure enough, when I went to AltaVista's Babelfish translator, the slogan "Nimm Mars, gib Gas", directly translates as "Get Mars, Give Gas"....
....I wonder if this was done to give baked beans a run for their money, as the premier fart-inducing product...^_^
