If any good has come of this, now we know how to get rid of a mascot.  How about starting a porn wave of that Marcus PSP kid?

So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

If by soccer moms you mean the corprate exects who own her then yes it's a little funny.

Google image search actually turns up Quickies Erin image.

Also, am i the only one who thinks that the guy from the commercials looks uncannily like Bruce Wayne from "The Batman"?

But anyway, this is sad. I thought Erin Esurance was a very appealing commercial. I mean, hey, it sure made me want to buy!

Whatever they pick as their next mascot will get its very own porn within 24 hours after its debut.

There was a loooong discussion about this on the Rule34 IRC channel.
I didn't read any of it though, so I can't remember what anyone said about it.

Except that the article had a recent piece about Erin being less popular than Clippy.
Which implied that there is more Clippy porn than Erin porn.

Yeah. Them. Although they've made references to thier past mascot. Apparently every ensurance company's into the "idiot worker" (Even Geico, he appears more than the Gecko and caveman combined) these days.

I heard about it already, unsurprising but dissapointing, I like commercials that can be... fun.

Now maybe some people should start making NSFW Flo images so Progressive can get a new ad campaign....

...Oh the Horror.

Took them a little while. Rule 34 has been in effect since the beginning, and yet they only got rid of Erin a month or so ago.

They're sales are going to go WAY down. Cause pink hair sells.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

Pink hair with skintight black catsuits sells even better.

Paired with a blonde with a skintight blue catsuit can even sell higher than that.

Well they did reject the first drawing of hers because it was too nipple-y...  8D

If this is true, then let's do it to those shitty Apple commercials. You know, "Hi, I'm a Mac, and I'm a PC". I cringe every time I see that line of commercials.

Someone has to get rid of that [tornado fang]ing monstrosity of a would-be child actor.

Sony sucks enough on it's own, no need to make me feel utterly ashamed of owning anything Sony brand... let alone my PSP.

This is why I don't give Sony any of my money with my PSP... also, topic makes me lulz.

You know, Marcus seems to be one of those "stereotype" black hipsters that nobody wants to be with. Just ignore his existance and everything will be fine.

Of course, there's also those shitty "business office staff member" mascots that are parading around these days.

Who is "Marcus"?


I put on my [twin slasher] face.

I also go by Spectro D., Idylleaus, Malabar, and Dumb-bit Twofuck.
