Well, let's be honest. The ONLY way the average Snickers eater is going to do ANYTHING to ANYONE is from the front seat of their car, or the couch... so effiminate joggers, watch out for cars that lean to the right (from head-on) or couches on wheels!

I thought it was pretty funny. The ad is obviously ridiculous, so it doesn't seriously support the purported values of "the man race" that it presents. The term "man race" is ridiculous enough that I think the ad's seriousness is clear.

Thanks for the racewalking link. Naturally, I see this as extreme disrespect to one of the original modern Olympic sports. I double dog dare Mr. T to walk a full 26.2 mile marathon with me.

Even crueler, I've actually recommended Snickers as a replacement for costly "energy bars." The pain, the pain.

Bahahajajaja LMAO errr snicker!
And no I dont believe that it is a slam against gay men.
Just a snicker.

This is as ugly as Mr T--that embarrassing icon of macho bs--get a clue, men!

It's just an advert. The man was shooting chocolate bars. I'd be glad if someone shot Snickers at me in a drive-by manner... because Snickers are awesome.

Hey People,

That was funny..!!! With a capital "F"..:-) You have to admit, race walking does LOOK funny and efiminate..? Even small children, when they first see a man doing it, think it looks a little weird..?
That is untill the kids tries to do it for 500 yrds.. Then they think it is REAL exersise...

New Snickers Ad Encourages Drive-By Shootings of Unmanly Men??

REALLY??

The only thing it encouraged me to do was laugh.

Pickup trucks flying through the air, smashing through houses and a rider in the bed not being thrown out?
Ridiculous!

A candy bar shooting gattling gun?
Ridiculous!
(Sorry Ben, the thing is not a machine gun by definition. The design has been around since the unCivil War.)

Mr. T? The man is an obvious and intentional caricature of himself!

Speed-walkers? I used to compete in 5k, 10k, half-marathon and marathon length road races locally, and there were two world-class speed-walkers who'd show up on a regular basis. One guy had been on Great Britain's Olympic team in the '80s. They knew their sport struck people as silly looking. We'd laugh at them, and they'd laugh with us. Then late in some races, as they passed some of us the order of laughter would be reversed, but still mutual.

I think some people are just a bit too eager to take offense.

Give the hyperbole a rest, if you expect to be taken seriously.

Awesome ad!

If acting effeminately will get people to shoot free candy bars at me, sign me up.

To anyone who feels this ad encourages violence toward gays, I say:

I Pity You, Fool.

Haha, this ad was hilarious. GET SOME NUTS! This doesn't encourage drive by shootings unless your a very poorly educated piece of white trash, in which there is no hope for you anyway. Stop bending the rules for stupid people. Otherwise you take the fun and happiness our of life for the rest of us.

Definitely made me Snicker!
And no, I didn't feel any uncontrollable urge to go out and shoot anyone.
