I just saw this ad on TV. I found it amusing, but I can kinda see why some people might find it offensive. It's basically calling people un-australian for not liking lamb.
ROFLMAO!! I'd heard about the ad but not seen it on tv even though I hear they were knocked back in their bid to try and get it pulled off the air.
"Pot smoking hippy vegetarians".... ROFLOL!
People who complain about this really have nothing better to do. It's not like the ad incites violence against vegetarians or even discriminates against them. So what, you're call unaustralian. Get over it -- it's obviously an advertising gimmick. Suing over something so ridiculous just makes you look less Australian (American perhaps? where they sue if you look at them the wrong way?).
I love the bit about the 'thongs' too. Nearly choked on my drink.
