Mad? Who's mad? The only feeling this whole thing invokes is pity. Nice of you to admit wokeness is about politics rather than any genuine desire to do good. Read the thread title. It's hardly hunting for it when they literally shove the ideology down one's throat.

Hmm... Remarkably like children, yes? And yet...

Vaguely recall the second video, but laughed out loud.

Just the allure of green characters, something this fandom would understand.

Remarkably like you being so interested in the subject of kids that you awkwardly ram that subject into others that don't pertain to them nor child abuse. But thanks for the daily awkward subject-crossing cringe.

Nice deflection, does your sword arm hurt right now? I will assume you understood how I was pointing out the blatant contradiction between someone dismissing the sexualization of candy while siding with those who sexualize children, groom them and even talk them into life-changing treatments before they can understand what the heck is going on, yet you chose a weak attempt at trolling instead. If by interest in kids you mean lamenting and abhoring what leftists put them through, then yes, I very much am interested in kids.

And please, none of that "ram into others" imagery... This isn't a gay pride parade. You're all the cringe I can take.

You truly are very warped, politically obsessed, and extremely black and white thinking, aren't ya. "Liberal" automatically equals all the craziest fringe bulls*** you believe it does so you throw labels around without even taking into account actual history of an individual and force narratives on them that isn't even true. You couldn't pick me out of a crowd because you'd be looking for something that only lives in your head rent free and isn't real.



Anyhow. Just wanted to mention I saw a/the tv ad for this a couple days ago. Included some claim to also be renaming M&Ms to something reflecting her name, too, so it's definitely a thing, but definitely also just a gimmick. But they sure got attention for it, as surely intended.

This is too damn funny, considering the source.

Here you go boys. And I do mean boys, unless you're a lady into other women.

Have a NSFW green M&M lady disturbingly made of flesh:
Spoiler for click at your iwn risk:

If I had to be scarred for life (thanks to the Bad Women's Anatomy Reddit sub), now you can be as well! If you dare. Though maybe some here would be into that. Or the already seen it??

In most cases I'd roll my eyes at things rarely ever going both ways, but you know... you can have this one, I can do without any more M&Ms made of flesh and human bits. Sweet dreams, fellas.

Even if I was a lesbian, I wouldn’t tap that.

But I’ve seen worse.

Exactly, where did anyone think the mini ones come from?

Apparently.

Seems like there was supposed to be a bigger M&Ms commercial bridging the Maya to spokescandies return.
M&Ms/Ma&Yas Twitter account plugs the first commercial.
Maya does a long awkward initial spot in Q2.
Twitter account puts up the No Signal graphic around halftime.
Spokescandies announce their return, with Purple getting last word, after game is over.
Twitter account change name back to M&Ms.

Maybe they ran out of money?

Edit: looks like they spread that cash around getting other company social accounts to make up stupid responses to their anti-climatically resolved campaign:

Didn't catch any Super Bowl ad, but on a muted tv at a restaurant I did see a brief glimpse of another female character (new?) alongside the rest, a peanut M&M kind of a pinky-purple color and the words to the effect of the M&Ms being back. Was that from Sunday?

Yeah, must be this spot that aired soon after the game ended:

Cocoa Clam Nut, a next limited edition flavor pitted against two others to become permanent.

Maybe if one of the spicy flavors came back it might actually win that time. (I still sometimes check for those Chili and/or Jalapeno flavors to return... *sad face*)



edit: Although I have to say, if a purple M&M will be added to the regular bags then finally my seeing them as TMNT colors will no longer be missing one.
