When I saw the Snickers ad during the Superbowl it made me feel funny. The whole thing is of course a put-on, but say it happened, isn't it more of an "oops!" than anything else? It seems like what I feared (violence = appropriate reaction to possibly gay overtone) is where Mars/Snickers was actually going. See John's AmericaBlog post for a write up of the ad, and the accompanying web site (vote on three endings: fey, poisoning, or assault). I'm open to what other people think, tell me what you see when you see the ad.
Snickers has pulled the website, and the disturbing alternate endings. The original commercial can be seen here at the CBS site: http://cbs.sportsline.com/nfl/postseason/superads
