Whores and Homes

A couple of months ago I noticed an advertisement on the Ol’ Dirty website for sex toys.

Since then they’ve added one more sponsor link to that little box. I’d post a picture of it but I’m at work and photoshop is not approved here, blogging is though.

What new and illustrious sponsor did the Ol’ Dirty add? The Silver Dollar? Castles? Jenna Jameson’s personal sex site?

Dreams only.

No, the latest sponsor is a website with an immensely long list of articles on home improvement. Which leads me to believe that the ODE wants students to not only think about their masturbatory pleasure but also the look of the home that their masturbating in.

Sex and home improvement apparently go together like peanut butter and jelly.

I understand the ODE is looking for any ad source that will pay them. However, it’s a little out there when their sponsored links are to websites with services that few college students can afford to spend money on, even if they wanted.

    I wonder who they’ll appoint to the J-School seat. Hopefully they pick a champion for the J-School, someone who’ll represent the students fairly and equally.

    My own personal crusade against poor choice advertising.

    Their/They’re/There now Scott…

  6. Kai Davis says:

    Their ad kit says that you purchase the link (with some small limit to characters) for $10 through them, so I think they know full well who is buying it.

  7. Michelle Haley says:

    Daniel, I was wondering this also, since the ODE’s site is though the “College Media Network”, or at least that’s what it says at the top of the page. I’m wondering if the links are managed by whoever hosts their site.

  8. Daniel says:

    Do you think the Daily Emerald even notices those ads on the site? I’ve always wondered that they might be generated automatically.

  9. Alex Peters says:

    Whatever, dude. If you can’t afford a dildo and a decorative monolithic slab get the fuck out of college.
