While I am a little... Miffed about the advert I must say that on the whole I don't really mind.
As far as I can see, most of the people who are going to see it will doubtlessly chuckle softy and shake their heads a little bit because, of course they know -all about- having a Goth room mate.
Which of course they don't if anyone didn't pick up on the sarcasm there.
As the user above me states, they are selling a product, quite how they felt this would boost sales I don't know. Did they do a survey or something?
"30% of people prefer items that have a mildly mocking reference to Goths on them?"
"Four out of ten people wished they had had brighter colours in their flat to negate the influence of alternative room-mate?"
It's more than a little stupid to put that on there, because I don't imagine it boosted sales tremendously, but it's certainly alienated part of it's market just a little bit.
Having said all the above, I wouldn't mind if it was gone however.
