The world is filled with pimps and hos
Another thing: does anyone else find it slightly odd that Asda are using pimp culture to sell their “George” range of children’s school uniforms? The kids are shown having fun in said uniforms, while lip–synching to the sound track, which goes “(gruff pimp voice) who’s the daddy? (sweet girlie voice) you are, baby”. Is this appropriate? Or has someone missed the obviously pimp connotations, in the way that just about all nice girls will happily sing and dance along to “a little bit of Monica, etc” without seeming to realise that this guy is a mack. Or maybe they do realise and they aren’t actually nice girls at all… Fine. But with ten year–old kids, it’s starting to get a bit dodgy, isn’t it?
