Yeah, I heard about this on the radio the other day.

That teapot cracks me up so bad. It reminds me of a South Park Hitler.

Apparently people have been selling that teapot for big bucks on ebay.

That's frickin awesome. I want a Mussolini waffle iron.

How could the advertising execs Nazi the resemblance?

JC Penney said that they didn't understand der fuehrer over this.

BIG SMILE!!!

I know, reich?

In other news, the teapot just annexed the kettle!

So they are going to act like it wasn't done on purpose. "Oh, was that wrong? We have to say we didn't know that was wrong. If we would have known we wouldn't have done it."

tha **** outta here......

I found this kind of fascinating. Goes to show you that negative publicity is still publicity.

LMAO

If this teapot looked like JFK, people would love it. I guess roasting jews is more frowned upon than I thought...

This is a strange world we live in.

So the manufacturer of that teapot now sees its product discontinued, because the marketing idiots for JCP arranged the photo shoot in an accidentally inappropriate way? That's harsh.

I prefer freshly squeezed Jews myself

Those marketing assholes knew exactly what they were doing if you ask me. Making a billboard for a ****ing teapot? Yeah...

it could be sold in one of two options. "Standard" which is just one tea pot.
and "Conspiracy Package - Set of 3" which comes with one teapot, and you need to find the other 2.

They should just make a whole set of dictator teapots. Stalin, Hussein, Mussolini, etc. Gotta catch them all!

I saw a few posted on schindlerslist.

A Pol TeaPot?

LMAO

waaay ooooooo

i was thinking the exact same thing.

It even matches the Tojo-ster and the Ho Chi Mincer.

This pot called the kettle black...then gassed ursula pursuit of racial purification.

heh - good one.

You can brew up some Goebbels tea.

:clap:

CP is the king of bad puns and inappropriate humor.




BRAVO.

:LOL:

The tea was brewed on time, every time.

Thats sooo weird, it really does look like a cartoon Hitler. LMAO

At least it wasn't an industrial sized oven....

When it boils it whistles like Eva Braun.

They're replacing it on the shelves with a new wine product called Mein Carafe.

The Rollerskate that looks like FDR continues to sell well.

Strange Brew by Cream is running through my head now...

They already have the Eva Braun coffee maker

Coming soon to outlet stores on the outskirts of Leningrad.

Natural gas powered?

Thank you, gentlemen.
This thread has made my day.
and

"Adolf Oliver Panties?"

/got nuthin

Who would put a ****ing teapot on a Billboard? WTF? This had to have been done on purpose.

A company that wanted people to know that they, like Kohls, offers products other than clothes I would guess.

I'm a little teapot short and stout,
Here is my handle,
Here is my ESSEN MEIN SCHEISSE MIT KUCHEN SCHWEINHUND

Its a improvement over my last tea pot. That tea would brew for a little bit than start Stalin

LMAO

horrible. but funny.

I'm a little tyrant, short and stout, here is my howitzer, here is my kraut.

Jeeeeesus. LMAO

D-day. Discontinuation day.

Nothing like a fresh-brewed Jew early in the morning.

a cup of Jew in the mornin'

That was my thoughts as well. The idea that "bad publicity is good publicity" comes into play here.

Could call it the Despot Teapot collection.

You're way out of the Warsaw line with that one.

Ehhh... Looks like Mother Mary on a piece of toast to me.

People see what they see. We're wired to recognize familiar faces and everyone knows Hitler's mug. He's the most famous man in history. Without the picture there, I wouldn't have seen it at all. It's hilarious seeing them side by side though.

If you're going for the imperative, you need to include "Sie" in there. Also, "Scheiss" is masculine. If you're eating multiple shits (Scheisse) then "mein" needs to be in the masculine accusative plural.

ESSEN SIE MEINE SCHEISSE MIT KUCHEN, SCHWEINHUND!

Much better.

What about the French?

I think the funniest part about this is how the teapot resembles Hitler, but it looks kinda like a Lego Hitler. Or maybe some kind of Mattel Hitler toy.

Speaking of which...I just googled and look what i found. LOL you can find just about anything on this here damn internet.

You know, come to think of it I've never met one person that doesn't agree that the political correctness shit in this country is way out of control. It seems the only people who care about political correctness are the douchebags on the 24 hour cable news networks.....

In the modern world, it's all about niche marketing. I bet if they marketed it as the Hitler Teapot they could get some good sales. For p.r. purposes they'd just need to balance it with teapots that resemble FDR, Churchill, and DeGaulle. That shouldn't be too hard.

/close thread

The problem is that those people claiming that P.C. then turn around and insist that the restrictions they want implemented aren't about being P.C.. In other words, a lot of the people who tell you that they agree there's too much P.C. in the country are full of shit, because they're all for it as long as it's not their ox being gored.

Maybe as a white dude I just don't understand. Given my nature though, I'd like to believe if I was a minority I would not give a shit about PC.

I attempted to Jew a seller down on his price for one of these teapots he was selling on EBay. He shot my offer down right away, so auschwitzed to another seller and was able to dictate a better price.

Mark Cuban was responsible for this.

Good show.

Grammar Nazi.

Thank you. I did nazi that grammar problem.

Close her down boys.

I prefer tea-day.

I heard that the real reason for the recall is that they had one of these in the Reichstag and it started a big fire.

True.

Mark Cuban - Jewish

Mark Cuban - Lives in Dallas

JC Penney - HQ in Dallas


hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

this is ****in stupid. its even worse that they gave in to these pussies bitching about nothing

you don't think it's funny?

i chuckle every time i see it

This. It is hilarious.

What's worse is that I thought JC Penney went out of business. They must have just been taken over. (haha poor dictator joke, but it's early)

i'm sitting at the dentist office this morning, waiting for my checkup, and the women that work there are discussing this story. so, I drop a couple of the jokes I read in this thread.

not a good idea to offend someone that's getting ready to stick sharp, pointy instruments in your mouth...****ing bitches.
sec

LMAO

Wow, that's pretty funny. I wish I would have seen this a bit sooner. I wonder how many people had to call in complaints before they took it off the shelf? Better yet, I wonder how many people were actually offended?
