Apparently this ad is much more dangerous than one would like to believe and this lady is pissed:

Per Ms. Jussel's blog, "This Target ad is senselessly subversive on so many levels ....."

AND, "This ad may not be QUITE as blatant as some of the other spread-eagle ambient billboards we’ve featured  (http://www.shapingyouth.org/blog/?p=28) or as viral as the onslaught of Axe videos making the rounds, but it’s subliminal to the point of guffaw"


 ;D  Her blog is like a one-stop shop for all the naughty ads. At least in her mind.

Target won't donate to veterans' charities and they're preoccupied with teen snatch.  A bit like MP really.

How can it be "subliminal to the point of guffaw"?

Is that kind of like "subtle to the point of obviousness"?
