Here is every vibrator gag (sorry) from The New York Post’s story about Trojan’s botched vibrator giveaway, as compiled by Tom McGeveran in his The Front column:
- On the front page of the print edition, the headline was “BUZZ KILL!”
- The lead-in text read “Hundreds of New Yorkers lined up for free vibrators from promotional pushcarts yesterday—until the nanny city hit below the belt and pulled the plug.
- Inside, the caption on a photo of a line of customers at Pearl Street read: CAN’T GET NO SATISFACTION.
- The headline was “CITY KOs GOOD VIBRATIONS.”
Into the article!
- They must have rubbed Mayor Bloomberg the wrong way.
- City officials pulled the plug on a vibrator giveaway by the Trojan condom company yesterday …
- Trojan sent tingles of excitement across the city …
- But instead of climaxing in a successful giveaway, the promotion was prematurely interrupted …
- A dark-suited representative … put the squeeze on Trojan’s “Pleasure Carts.”
- The decision to nix the giveaway clearly caused the mayor’s voter satisfaction ratings to plummet ….
