[Applemask]

@Wavedude21101 That the next time you're in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy­rndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch you should call at the Esso sign, isn't it?

[maclovindotca]

Back when even bloody White people can make fun of our own culture and race also.

[texasghost]

Now...The Esso sign means...

kill the fish and all sea life in the North Atlantic.

@hoteklmario510 Like "Tle Esso Sign Means Happy Motoling?"

[BluTrilobite]

Happy motoring.....back when gas was a nickel per gallon!

[Applemask]

Starring the King of Town as the English oval.

[hotelmario510]

Do you have the Super-Extra-Racist version with the Black and Chinese stereotypes? I haven't seen that one in a while...

[MisterTrimble]

@hotelmario510 Yes, I have that somewhere, and I'll upload it at a later date.

[piflover]

@MisterTrimble ... It actually existed?

[MisterTrimble]

@piflover It did, piflover, I assure you.

[piflover]

@MisterTrimble Was it animated like this one?

[MisterTrimble]

@piflover Yes, it was, although I have no idea if it was a sequel or prequel to this advert.

[piflover]

@MisterTrimble So basically a bunch of non-white people doing this song to show that it's an international brand?

[hotelmario510]

@piflover Yes indeed, look here, isn't it, boyo.

*Is beaten by everyone who lives in Wales*

[piflover]

@hotelmario510 Oh dear. Happy Motoring, black and Chinese people!

[Applemask]

@hotelmario510 They really do talk something like that, though, with the constant self-affirmations and such. Howerver, no Welshman has ever said "boyo".

[hotelmario510]

@Applemask Hence the beatings.

[Applemask]

@hotelmario510 They do say "boy bach", though they like to pretend otherwise.

[hotelmario510]

@Applemask Hm.

[musiccity123]

[piflover]

@musiccity123 Thank you!

[hotelmario510]

@MisterTrimble Oh, I'm looking forward to that one, it's hilarious (:

[gerryono]

@hotelmario510

[hotelmario510]

@gerryono It was, it's not any more.

[AnthonyUK]

@hotelmario510 I remember the chinese bit of the stereotypes ad;esso sign mean happy motoling,esso sign mean happy motoling,esso sign mean velly happy motoling call at the esso sign!

[hotelmario510]

@AnthonyUK It's cringeworthy now, but back then it was a bit of fun. Damn political correctness.

[hotelmario510]

@musiccity123 Thanks, man!

[Nukethelotofthem1]

@hotelmario510 You stupid racist prick

[hotelmario510]

@Nukethelotofthem1 Yes, yes, I'm racist for wanting to see an old advert and laugh at how racist it is.

You moron. I wanted to see it for comedy value, not for my own agendas. Shut the fuck up.

[Nukethelotofthem1]

@Nukethelotofthem1 Do you think this advert is racist ? It was made in Britain when the population was 99.9% white and there were no other racial groups to be offended. The oldest joke in the world begins with " There was and Englishman, Irishman and a Scotsman," and includes a Welshman somewhere in the punchline.
