In trying times like this when the whole world is rocking from a global economic downturn, an old friend of mine tries to incite cheer with his glorious joke, that is, if you find it funny.
FIRST, the title is already a dead giveaway sham.
Once upon a time, there was this merry king.
And this king had a beautiful daughter, the PRINCESS.
But there was this problem. Everything the princess touched would just melt.
No matter what:metal,
wood, stone, They would just melt. Because of this, men were terrified of her. Nobody would dare marry her.
No way, they did not wish to melt away.
The king was exasperated. What could he do to help his daughter? He consulted his wizards and magicians. One wizard told the king, ‘If your daughter ever touches one thing that does not melt in her hands, she will be cured.’
The king was overjoyed and came up with a wise plan. The next day, he held a competition. Any man that could bring forward to his daughter any object that would not melt would qualify to be her groom and inherit all the king’s wealth. THREE YOUNG PRINCES TOOK UP THE CHALLENGE.
The first brought a sword of the finest steel.
But alas, when the princess touched it, it melted, and the prince went away sadly . The second prince brought diamonds. He thought diamonds were the hardest substances in the world and would definitely not melt. But alas, once the princess touched them, they too melted. He too was sent away disappointed. Finally, it was the third prince’s turn. He told the princess,
” Now, take one deep breath and hold. Then put your lovely hand in my pocket and just feel the glorious thing there.”
The princess rose to the occasion. Her face turned as red as the beetroot when she felt a snaky substance “growing” as she nudges it with her dainty hand.
Not only that.
There was somethingHARDER , another substance.
That “another” substance was awesome. It felt small but was really hard. She squeezed it with all her might.And hey presto, it did not melt!
The king was overjoyed. Everybody in the kingdom was overjoyed. And the third prince married the princess and they both lived happily ever after.
WHAT was in the prince’s pants?
M&M Chocolate Candies, you guess?
They are HARD, and they melt in your mouth, not in your hand.
Not forgetting also – the Prince’s well-endowed phallus.
Now the Princess had the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. Whatever were you thinking?
How corny can you get?
Sure, the Prince’s erect penis and the “bonus” of M&M Chocolate.
Yummy ….. for the Princess, that is.
Someone passed on this advertising tale to me and I am still trying to guess the product’s “positioning”.
I am still scratching my head for a apt solution.
Can I classify this one under SHOCK ADVERTISING?
How does the two items relate?
At what point does the marketing OR the branding come in?
And for YOU?
WELL, YOU CERTAINLY DO HAVE A DIRTY MIND, yes?
END OF STORY.
