It's not that funny actually.

i....don't get it

This is considered a joke?

Unless this is supposed to be Nietzschian-level sarcastic cynicism, I don't see why this is funny. And even if it is that cynical it's still not funny.

Father's Day Joke

um ok im still waiting to see the humor in this but ok to each there own

To all you nay-sayers... how is that not funny?

People need to loosen up a little and have a laugh every now and again - it would go a long way toward making this a better world.

durex makes good condoms.
if you use a different brand of condoms
then happy fathers day to you.

whats not to get?

Man, is it THAT hard to get a joke?
This is funny!

Yep, quite funny, those who don't get probably are supposed to laugh more :)

Does anyone who uses the phrase "Nietzschian-level sarcastic cynicism" every find anything funny?

HAHHAHAHA
THIS IS HILLAAARIOUSSSS !!!
too good

This is, in fact, funny.

I've seen similar advertisements before so I know why some find it funny but there are funnier variations.

Does anyone who uses the phrase "Nietzschian-level sarcastic cynicism" ever have the need to use a condom???

Yeah, you're all retarded. That is funny.

Yeah, if you think this is NOT funny then you are too stupid to get it. This could be for number of reasons, most likely, you have never had to use a condom before so you know a damn thing about Durex. Less likely, you dont know how to read.

Thanks for posting this, it truly got me laughing aloud.

Had me stumped for a sec, then I scrolled down & saw the logo...classic.

Good joke.

Very funny. The commercial with the frustrated dad in the grocery with the screaming brat is the best version of this gag I've ever seen.

It's hilarious...but it requires thought, which is why the first few responders apparently didn't get it.

Haha omg too hilarious!!
How could you people not get it and especially not think it's funny??
I love it! Lol

I've only had two condoms ever break on me. And both were durex.

i find it really funny!

A condom joke. Wooo...that's hilarious. [Please note extreme sarcasm.]

Good ole rubber joke.

hahahahahahahah thats a good one props to durex...lol

When it was explained and I got it I still didn't find it funny...

Maybe because we don't have that brand over here.

Still by classifying it as
"The funniest fathers day add yet"
Well that person doesn't really get out much.

Oh i get it, it means that the people who use other condoms are fathers cause they got the women they were fucking pregnant! HAHAHAHAHA

The only reason that people don't find it funny is either because they don't get that this is a condom company because they've never been laid before in their life, or because they have no sense of humor. If you dont have a sense of humor, please get one but I cannot help you if you cant get laid.

BTW this joke was hilarious--thank you for posting. Advertising for condom companies must be tricky because they have to make something that can be read by all audiences of all ages but still carry their meaning...hard to balance that!

Thanks for calling me an idiot and/or a virgin because I've never heard of that brand of condoms before.

Are you Americans?
because its obviously an American brand.
(Same Michael as before)

Yes we are Americans. If you don't like the joke, then go away. We think its funny, and we dont care if you feel otherwise, noob.

And for the record, a durex broke on me last night! That makes this ad a little inaccurate, but funny nonetheless.

this is funny...i didn't get it until I scrolled down but then laughed out loud!!!

this is so freakin funny....for those who dont get it, you're over-thinking it

good stuff

Pretty hilarious. Unplanned pregancies may be the most funny thing in the world actually. Or so movies and tv had led me to believe. My favorite is the face of the new mother or father to be after they find out : )

I didn't get it right away because I didn't know that Durex was a condom Brand. Without knowing that, it's not funny.

I'm of an age where Trojan is the only condom company that I'm familiar with. I no longer have to worry about such things, so the Durex name is unfamiliar. Until I scrolled down to these comments, I had no clue what that ad was about.
A very funny ad. Kudos to the creator.

yeah this is stupid just like you butwipe!

ok i get it...but its really not that funny,kinda cute but not funny. (sorry boys)

i dont get it

Eh. so/so. funny enough ya, and I know funny I laugh at damn near everything. took me a moment to get it.

Only problem is that durex makes really bad condoms. I only used one once...or at least tried. <<; I won't say I'm big , but the thing was tight, uncomfortable, and kinda dry, brand new box too.

Long live Trojan.

I get it, it's just not funny.

OK, so I didn't get it at first either -- figured durex was some kind of software vendor (hmm, perhaps software and condoms should be used in the same sentence). Anyway, haven't needed a condom in years -- been V-safe for 10 years.

Durex marketers should get a raise.

it was funny the first time i saw somthing like that but its loosing its effect.

and durex is deffers in countrys other thatn america (if you can still count the UK as seperate) i have seen many in shops

Father's Day Humor Impact On Blog Traffic

Not only is this not funny, but durex condoms are the worst condoms ever made. Seriously.

Maybe "# re: The Funniest Father’s Day Ad Yet
Left by me on Jun 15, 2007 8:28 PM" is going to be celebrating Father's Day because he doesn't know how to follow the instructions on a box of condoms. And ... "me", this is completely funny, get a grip. Oh, could that be the problem, not enough gripping capabilities ...

Mildly amusing.

Ok, for those of you who don't get it, first of all, your dumb.

Second, the point is, fathers don't use condoms, its a cocky add saying everyone uses their condoms.

1) It is funny
2) Durex started out as an UK brand
3) Durex is the world market leader
4) Not all things are American
5) If you have problems using a Durex then you shouldn't be having sex because we sure don't need your stupid genes.

Funniest line in the comments must be by Sky who complains that Durex condoms are no good because amoung other things they are tight. Sheesh, what did he expect.. that it would be loose?

"Ok, for those of you who don't get it, first of all, your dumb.

Second, the point is, fathers don't use condoms, its a cocky add saying everyone uses their condoms." - Jeff

Wow. For those of you who are Jeff, you are dumb. The point is that people who used their competitors condoms are now fathers because the condoms broke.

Luckily for you, you can actually get money for being this stupid. Apply for a disability allowance at your nearest welfare office.

christ but all you americans are morons, did you know that almost every English national hates you?

It's actually an English brand you ignorant.:
"For those of you not from the U.S. brands, Durex is a brand of condoms sold in America."

ha ha that is so trueandthe best part it funny as well

You guys are all fuckin idiots...if you dont get it ur a god damn fool and should be embarresed that you dont...its hilarious

Strange

It's so funny. But Durex is not only sold in the U.K. an the U.S.

how is that not funny, lighten up people

this is hilarious

How do you not get this. It's a condom company, saying happy fathers day to people who used theyre competitors products(which is why they are fathers).

get it?

Fathers don't use condoms? How stupid can you be? Anyone who likes sex but doesn't want 1000 kids might use them. The ad is NOT saying that everyone uses condoms. It is saying if you don't use Durex, it's possible you'll be celebrating Father's Day.

To everyone who breaks them all the time, cut your fingernails. We've been using Durex exclusively for TWELVE years, and never had a failure.

i laughed out loud.

That's hilarous. And it's spelled "their" not "there," Becca. Tard.

Well, I find the funniest part about this is the number of posts on the whole thing. That, and that I read each and every one of the posts. AND now i'm added to that by posting. lol.

Oh, and btw, I didn't use Durex or ANY of the competitors product... My baby is due on Feb 14 '08! Great date for it, huh?

Whether people get it or not, does it really matter? Whether people find it funny or not, does it really matter? I get it, it's funny, but sitting here arguing over it is kinda fucked up.

BTW: Durex is sold also in Italy and France, maybe also the rest of Europe

that is funny 2 the xtreme...lol not really

awesome!

the ad is so funny! haha...
hmmz... i don't think i ever saw this ad in my country... can some1 tell me a little more abt it? was it a print ad or outdoor ad? when was it out? i'm thinking of using is for a presentation in my advertising module... ;p haha... if anyone know the details of the ad like who did it & where it was published or seen... could you let me know?
thanks thanks!

Bob the very first comment say's it's not funny. He must nto have used it and have like 20 kids. LOL

how can you not get it :P


very funny :D

Freskin' hilarious....very clever!

peopel who don't find it funny most likely don't get out much.

THATS SO HILARIOUS....SOME PEOPLE MIGHT NOT THINK SO BECAUSE THEY TAKE IT TO THE HEART.... WHATEVER THE CASE WAS...... EITHER WAY WE STILL LOVE THEM.....REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY GOT HERE.

Here's a bit of irony, One of my kids was conceived on fathers day. "Whos your daddy". It's a subtle, funny add.

I think its funny. If I had kids from a broken condom it may not be. But its funny..

its funny , not big deal.

Durex brand is sold in Portugal too. Not sure about the rest of Europe.

that was so funny even if i didn't get it at first because im not familliar with that condom brand

This is very funny, I'm still laughing. You're not that bright, if you don't get it...

But

Durex condoms are so bad, in so many ways!
They break, and it's not because nails;
They are smaller than should be; are they meant for kids ?
They are in all Europe, i think: they are in Romania...
They are not well lubricated. So, if you don't break it in the first 5 minutes, it dries out...
They make lubricants, as well. Those are bad also!(cause irritation)

three college girls talking about their weekend. The first one says yes Joe used to have a lot of girlfriends, so i hid his Durex Brand Condoms, the second one laughed, i found em, and poked holes in them all, the third one passed out....

lol
this is so freaking funny!!!
