So, uh...am I the only person who's made just a little uncomfortable with the implications of this commercial?
Not to go all PC on you, but seriously...this guy's about one half step from black-face. And who the hell thought of the name Dark Temptation, in the first place? That just sends off all kinds of alarms in my head. Or to put it as Dolemite might:
My white liberal guilt
Just won't leave me alone
Like the bitches when I put on
My Dark Temptations cologne

The sound isn't working on my computer but I watched the spot anyway. Without sound it's a bit ridiculous and perhaps a touch disturbing. It seemed like a Twilight Zone version of an Easter candy commercial.

I am not one to be so offended by non-PC stuff, but I found this commercial absolutely appalling the first time I saw it a month or so ago. When the white women take bites out of him and then they have chocolate blotches all over their faces, that's just completely gross, IMO. I can't believe that this commercial ever saw the light of day. It's wrong in like 12 different ways.
