In honor of World AIDS Day tomorrow, we bring you this charming spot from our friends in Brazil. Hat tip to Made in Brazil for the video and the translation below.

Boy: Am leaving…
Dad: Be careful.
Mom: Don’t forget to take a condom with you.
Dad: Son, take it just in case. You never know if your boyfriend is going to have one or not.
Boy: Thanks dad, thanks mom.
Negra Li: You don’t expect all parents to be like this, right? Wearing a condom should be your attitude, and it is important in the fight against AIDS.

Don’t worry, we’ll be back to our cheeky selves soon.

Also, we’ll be launching a blog about Team Mortar training for the AIDS/Lifecycle ride in the coming weeks. Many photos of sore Mortarons. Fun!

Thanks to the folks at Deadspin for this terrifying gem of a PSA from our (apparently filthy) neighbors to the north.

Clean your floors, people!

We’re rather partial to Aussies around here. The charming accents, the ability to “scull” until the wee hours and, of course, their self-deprecating sense of humor. Of which the following commercial is a wonderful example.

Now if someone could translate part or all of this spot, we’d dearly love to know what this gentleman is saying.

DDB London’s Marmite Squeezy campaign took the Grand Prix at this year’s London International Awards, announced this week. Love the ads…but sorry, Brits…Marmite? Nasty, evil stuff that belongs nowhere near my toast. Nice tip from CR Blog.
