Warning: mildly NSFW...?
*
Gimme a break.
As Jack Nicholson once said, “The censors say they're protecting the family unit in America, when the reality is, if you suck a tit you're an X, but if you cut it off with a sword, you're a PG.”
Hey, Vizkids... Is it the (tiny pictures of) transgressive lininality? Or is it your MENTAL place of work? 97% of Media Nipple content is taken directly off typical broadcast TV... the same place where ads for Viagra go back-to-back with vaginal dryness "disorder".
Geez, I'm almost damp thinking about the recuperative effects of Cultural Farming. (Now I'll never make the Blog Roll!)
Mental places of work
Sorry to take so long to reply.
I agree with you that the videos aren’t that transgressive (hence “mildly”). However, just because you and I find them ok, that doesn’t mean that they are ok in every context, particularly workplace contexts. Hence the “NSFW” warning. Like the R and X ratings, this warning provides people with information that they can do whatever they want with (and, unlike the R and X ratings, the warning carries not restrictions: those under 17 can still click through).
