Hells Pizza; Racist or Funny and Edgy?

[jackalan88]

trust the south african sounding guy at the end to like the billboard haha.

[Shane7952]

Well.... They do taske pets off the street and cook them up and sell them as a meal... It's not targeting a race it's targeting the people that eat them.

[bangel360]

for those that dont under stand its ment to be a joke.in the recent news a tongan family where being taken to court for eating there pet dog. and a brownie is a type of pudding cake hells are selling .just using media topics to spark reaction . ........

.........at least this brownie wont eat your pet dog.......so smile have a little giggle and dont let it spoil your day

[ChachaChapati]

@ScottJG21 that would be hilarious.

[MolloyDadda247Luke]

@ScottJG21 Tongans eat dog and Tongans are "brown"

[Smooth100k]

who ever made that poster is puthetic thats not funny at all...

[Shane7952]

@Smooth100k Who ever puts cats alive in boiling water and burns thee hair off dogs with a blow torch while still alive and cut off their limbs while still alive is pathetic

[jeterlover03]

can someone explain the "brownie" thing to me....I'm from the States and I don't understand the story....

[HIGHrizeMEDIA]

how can u think its Racist its a joke about a brownie not about the colour of some ones skin wtf grow up people dum cunts

[zaniac100]

Presumably "brownie" is a race related term in New Zealand? I only know of Brownies as being a chewy chocolate sweet baked in the oven on a tray; or junior Girl Guides..

[shmuli9]

@zaniac100 I was wondering the same thing. Perhaps the cakelike brownie, to avoid being racist, should now be called "a chewy cake of African descent" and "Girl Guides" should be called "Pre-Women Who Are Empowered to Lead in the White-Male Dominated Forests"... :-)

[mrpwnded]

@zaniac100 its a racist joke to maori people thats how its supposed to be racist but its not unless someone points it out

[soad2260]

@ both of you.... STFU

[bombertheelephant]

FYI the advertising companies are inherently racist and sexist wake the hell up. The brief of course is set by the client and in this case I can only presume that hell pizza considers this very clever. Well there's nothing brave about LCD humor. It appeals alright to people who think it's okay to be bigoted. Edgy is juts a euphemism and a tool to enable the rest of the community to laugh at another.

[DesignedYourWorld]

@bombertheelephant stereotyping again...

[bombertheelephant]

@DesignedYourWorld smartarse do you know what the context is? I seriously don't think you do. Surprise me.

[DesignedYourWorld]

@bombertheelephant well when u say advertising agencies are inherently... you insinuate you are talking about all of them... hence the context is all of them.... so again, your comments are stereotypical... society shouldnt let people who are little fanboys of there own words such as yourself behind a keyboard and mouse... because this is the result. stupidity, stereotyping, and keyboard nerd rage.

[bombertheelephant]

@DesignedYourWorld surprise surprise shit 4 brains I was talking about the story eg. the video up there! LMFAO Trust me if you aren't buyng into what I've posted, you don;t know diddly about media/advertising and I doubt that you've worked there... I base that on you calling yourself a designer hahaha most people who want to be one normally do and then post up videos with their extremities shoved up a puppets rear hahahahaha... Give yourself a break poochi you're confusing yourself more!

[abangbikerz]

can someone explain this to me what does this mean???

[1aotearoa1]

they got exactly what they want, they dont care about the public... And why should they? Just like anyother fastfood place. But these guys are thinking smart. They demand the attention, and thats what they got.

[plonker00765]

if you don't like it,piss off back to the islands and come back when you get a sense of humour,or better still,don't eat any animal you've given a name to and nobody will take the piss.

[bombertheelephant]

that's racist and low-brow...yeah HELL PIZZA...the last guy sounds like a South African....typical LMFAO.

hMMM WHAT IS TEH TYPICAL hell pIZZA MARKET... QUESTION ANSWERED HAHAHA

[DesignedYourWorld]

@bombertheelephant Its funny how you put all the South Africans together, obviously you a super smart kinda person that says racism is wrong and stereotyping is ok... these things often go hand in hand, so before your stereotype, think again because your logic is not undeniable.

[bombertheelephant]

@DesignedYourWorld okay Einstein that very rushed reply was a tongue in cheek response to PLONKER. Yes I am smart and as you put, my logic is certainly undeniable as for yours...WTF? LMFAO

[DesignedYourWorld]

@bombertheelephant Wow, name calling. Super mature. I am not saying anything about the ad... Im just talking about your stereotyping habits, so before you get all defensive and start calling people names, think a little and maybe apologize for assuming all South Africans are racist, because I can assure you that's not the case.

[bombertheelephant]

@DesignedYourWorld okay one comment does not a habit make. Replying to a post a year after it's made is more about you than it is me. LMFAO. I dont; knwo what's funnier you're delayed reaction or the fact that you're commenting on an exchange that has long since been dead. life much johnny come lately? hahaha go fuck yourself nimrod.

[danbuck333]

this is nz we should be able to take the piss out of each other and not get offended

[ColourMeFIji]

Boycott Hell Pizza! Make a stand against racial slurs + crappy pizza...

[Purrfectstranger]

LMAO!  I can't help but laugh at it

bad taste... very racial but very good AND bad publicity for the Hells Pizza brand.

[VAROrarotonga]

can't it it be both racist and funny?

[MysticBlue1]

Whether people approve of it or not, they accomplished their goal - it's getting attention.

[1aotearoa1]

i agree.

[kiwidud3]

media attention is exactly what they want

[philipnewmannz]

And they got it ...

[kiwidud3]

indeed

[nighthawk006]

LOL
