Dodge punks PETA.

[Meresgi]

I love the fact that the top person in PETA Has diabetes, and uses insulin. Yet stands there and shouts about how using any product that was a result of animal testing is wrong and should not be done.

She needs her life to help save others, duh. Everyone else should just go ahead and die though.

[bechyni]

i lol'd, still have to agree 10 more monkeys and it would of been priceless

Exactly! She needs that stuff to stay alive to save others, while at the same time condemning anyone who uses those products to stay a live and saving others!

YOU JUST DONT UNDERSTAND PETA AND HOW GREAT THEY ARE. I"M GOING TO FIRE BOMB YOUR HOUSE

[Zoolander]

As a type 1 diabetic, it is making me rethink things. I am being pretty selfish putting my life before that of a few animals...

/sigh, its such a heavy burden to live with

[Sylphet]

I know I'm in the overwhelming minority in giving a shit about this but..

IT'S NOT A FUCKING MONKEY! Chimpanzees are apes (along with the other apes: Orangutans, Gorillas, Bonobos, and Humans).

That being said, I thought Dodge's response was pretty funny.

[Deathbringer]

Found this to be a good laugh(even though its made up)

UPDATE: PETA has responded to the new version of the commercial... Press release below:

"If Dodge thinks that using an invisible ape in their commercial is any less heinous than using a great ape, they're sadly mistaken... invisible apes are even MORE rare than great apes, and therefore even more likely to be maltreated by handlers who have no experience with these invisible apes - or invisible animals of ANY species, for that matter.

This maltreatment starts when they are prematurely removed from their invisible mothers and continues when they are trained to invisibly perform through savage beatings (well, we assume they're savage - we can't really SEE the results of said beatings, because the apes are invisible, but DAMMIT they MUST be savage! Then they are discarded at seedy roadside zoos around the age of... well, we don't know at what age, because we can't see any of their aging charactersitics, since they're invisble, but we know it's at SOME age.

In closing, we would like to show you some examples of these poor animals being violated, but.... well, we can't, because they're invisible. You'll have to just take our word for it."

[Ikith]

Okay I hate PETA as much as the next person... But touche peta touche.

[Seanr]

no PETA, you're still not cool with a response like that

/groan

[Deathbringer]

lol, the factsheet thing is sweet. Are they true though?

Grew bored campin NMs for trials and looked up the sources and to answer ur question, yes they are true lol

[Corrderio]

lol, the factsheet thing is sweet. Are they true though?

Yes they are. Although the Pam Anderson one may be wrong since she sold her Dodge once she found out snake skin was used on the driving wheel or something.

Either way, can someone please explain to me why they were protesting the National Cancer Institute and WoW?

EDIT: Nvm about the WoW one, just read up on it. I knew Peta was retarded, but good lord...

[pahnphoenix]

would have been better if

a) they didn't add the word 'invisible' to the 2nd ad; just left it as monkey (inexplicably invisible).

b) dexter needs to use his fucking breathy dexter voice. that shit is so hilarious. "it happens tonight. it has to happen." it's like getting tony soprano to narrate something but not letting him breath all over the mic.

[Cyn]

You can't think of a good reason why PETA would protest a cancer research foundation?

[Gregorio]

PETA loves cancer obviously.

[Pandum]

lmao

[Kerberoz]

You can't think of a good reason why PETA would protest a cancer research foundation?

Nope.

[archibaldcrane]

They seriously should've just made a dadaist absurd "commercial" with a shitload of monkeys and a car.

Dexter's VO could've been "Monkeys. Car. Monkeys. Car. Monkeys. Buy Dodge." and I would've been ecstatic.

[Cyn]

Nope.

Oh shit, I can't even imagine how I accidentally let that word slip in there.

[Builttolast]

PETA rank animals above humans. They wouldn't have an issue if they had used a midget. I would have laughed at a midget but the invisible monkey is pure win.

[Kerberoz]

A Dodge pulls into an abandoned parking lot. Dark hooded figure gets out carrying a wriggling trash bag and a cordless drill. Cut to Dexter with a chimp plastic-wrapped to a table. Dodge logo.
