No. I'm not saying Americans have no sense of humour. I have the Family Guy DVDs to prove otherwise. I am suggesting that you, personally, have no sense of humour.
Can you please address my concerns that there is no credit on the billboard? And why are they posted on the way to Heathrow?
It's an old advertising dodge to say something shocking and make you wonder what the hell it's all about; then follow it up with an explanation which sells the product. In this case, it's helping American television. I know for a fact this dodge has been used in America as well as in Britain.

What you don't know about me could fill a book.
You can explain all you want about British advertising ploys but Great Britain tourism depends on American dollars. To post those things along the way to the airport is extremely provocative and self-destructive.
As someone who had just spent over a thousand pounds in London, I was disheartened and dismayed to read that billboard. No quite the same as reading some post here at Free Republic.
