Suvro, when I read, “I only shudder to think about the tastes and IQ-levels of the offspring that these morons are in turn now producing…” I see such kind of parents on regular basis and my heart goes out to children. I feel real helplessness that time.

Amit, what to say. These brands has become a fad. THEY KNOW people won’t stop flocking their joints apology or no apology.

Anirvan, welcome. You might be right. They might have issued everything with an eye to get media coverage. I agree with your soultions too.

Madam, with all due respect to everyone’s opinion, to me it felt like a very cheap publicity stunt on their part. I cant agree more with Suvro sir(who also happens to be my teacher) when he says that people who wrote these are not bad people. I beleive that for every ad campaign there is supposed to be a chain of command and control – were they all sleeping till date. The philosophy is very simple – just conjure up some vile controversy at the very onset followed by a feeble and pathetic apology – public and media will immediately take up the story and the brand will get a tremendous publicity even if for all the wrong reasons and the cash register will start tinkering and thats it. Once the initial dust settles down, its great business all the way. If still something remains – find the scapegoat and nail him. I feel theres two way to tackle this kind of situation – 1. simply ignore 2. Put forward some very primitive punitive mechanism so that these ignobles think atleast 100 times before putting forward something so offensive.

So that’s what it was? I was so bugged when I read the ad some days back…was wondering why they were not being kicked out of our country.I think an apology would still be needed, even if it’s just a wrong way of wording.

Don’t get too upset about this sort of thing, Alka. As an old teacher I can assure you that those who write this kind of crap are not bad people, they are merely imbeciles in a hurry. I deal with pupils of this calibre all the time, and many of them are ‘good students’ who go on to become engineers and MBAs, so I keep telling them what I expect of them once they have entered working life. One brilliant kid wrote, years ago, in answer to a question on Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice, that ‘Portia had a wonderful father who wanted to marry her even after his death.’ And I happen to know that he too is an MBA now, probably drafting or vetting the sort of ads/notices which you find so offensive. My favourite proverb is ‘A fool, when he grows old, simply becomes an old fool’! I only shudder to think about the tastes and IQ-levels of the offspring that these morons are in turn now producing…
