These Pants Are Apparently Totes Humpable

It took me a little while to figure out what the hell was going on in this ad for German clothing company Van Rosen, but now I get it! This guy and this girl are getting it on, but then he gets a phone call. So, while he is detained, she humps his pants, because they are just that sexy, and then later on, after she’s left, he gets to smell them. Hot? [Copyranter]

The take-away message I got from the ad is that Von Rosen pants are worn by men who would rather talk on the phone than have sex with a woman. Actually, the fact that Von Rosen pants are worn by men who would even look at their phones while a hot semi-naked woman was ravaging them seems to imply that they aren’t catering to me.
On the other hand, perhaps the message truly is that Von Rosen pants make you so friggin’ sexy that you grow tired of all the hot women who just want to have sex with you. So tired of it that you actually accept calls from telemarketers and chat with them.
I might need to go buy a few pairs.
Damn, that’s some subtle messaging there.

@_jsw_ Is this just the cinematic visualisation of procrastibation?
Seems like typical Germans advertising wank to me….

@SamL: Procrastibation would imply that she was doing that as a means of avoiding something, but I think instead that she was more or less forced to do it. Thus, it seems to me to be more like a case of phonecrastination and a separate case of pantsturbation.

Not sexy – those just make him a slacker.

I moved away from the south nearly 10 years ago and have long since excised “ya’ll” from my vocab. It bugs me to hear it now, totes annoying.

Was mostly kidding, darlin.’ But did not hallucinate seeing it as one of several incidental add-ons in other threads. *mmwaaah!*

@retrochic - I just recall totes being something the frisky pledged to retire, and they seem to have not ...
as to ya’ll - it’s actually an upgrade from my native vernacular second person plural of younse/yinz.

@j0yy, Totes, oh definitely – deep six.
Younse/yinz? haha, how east coast of you! (it is, isn’t it?)
And did I mention I use y’all too…

@retro - it’s actually a split between Pixburghese and southwestern PA ‘mountain twang’.

@Riley, yeah you don’t like to e-cuddle either… hmh
@j0yy, you lived in PA, that’s right. Thought it sounded easty. I’m sure you’ve picked up some good SW ones now too.
