Snickers: The Next Generation (( <> ))
Oh, I'd say Miranda July had it right after all: the notorious Snickers Super Bowl ad that made a mashup of Lady and the Tramp and violent homosexual panic also lifted from the prehensile sex/scat fixations of the kiddy characters in You and Me and Everyone We Know. Welcome to the Mars dynasty, Miranda. As she explained of her creation to Las Vegas Weekly, "When you're a girl, there's a lot of emphasis as to what's allowed to go into
what hole as far as cleanliness, you know, and somehow the idea of that in a way maybe influenced it, the idea of your poop going up someone else's butthole. It seemed like the place where my head was at, at that age. I know friends have told me that they thought butts were much more a part of sex, that maybe you rubbed your butts together, maybe that's what sex was. It was very unclear at a young age, so that made sense to me; that maybe if butts were sexual, then somehow poop was too." [Video link definitely NFSW.]
