"Oral Me"-Brand Toothpaste Not Going DOWN Well in Kuala Lumpur

Story here. Myself, I think it’s a snappy name, but Alas! the Malaysians aren’t going for it. :frowning:

…I’ll take seven.

And my apologies to all. I now realize the thread title should have been: “Oral Me”-Brand Toothpaste Not Going DOWN Well in Kuala Lumpur." :smiley:

:smiley: We forgive you. Well played, anyway.

A good advertising jingle can go a long way to fixing this problem. Something like, “Oral-Me! It goes in your mouth!”

Want me to save the title joke, Sam?

Another potential headline: “Oral Me” gives Malaysians bitter aftertaste

*What happened to the smile we knew
Not by chewing Dentyne
But from fellating in the hay
Oral me oral you oral day

Where did it go that after glow
When we could feel
The lips of lovers turn our way
Oral me oral you oral day*

Why does it taste so salty?

Maybe there is just confusion about whether they are supposed to spit or swallow.

“Oral Me – So you can have the whitest teeth anyone ever came across.”

Their slogan could be: “Try it with our mouthwash… as recommended by 4 out of 5 porn stars!”
With apologies to Paul McCartney:

Oral-Me, Oral-You

Desmond has his barrow in the marketplace,
Molly is the groupie of the band.
Desmond says to Molly “Girl, I like your face,”
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand,
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.

Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry store,
Buys a twenty carat golden ring. (Golden ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door,
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing: (Sing)
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.

In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home,
With a couple of kids running in the yard,
Of Desmond and Molly Jones… (Ha ha ha ha ha!)

Happy ever after in the marketplace,
Desmond lets the children lend a hand.
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face,
And in the evening she still blows 'em in the band.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.

In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home,
With a couple of kids running in the yard,
Of Desmond and Molly Jones… (Ha ha ha ha ha!)

Happy ever after in their “adults only” space,
Molly lets the children tend the stand.
Desmond stays home and ploughs her with his pretty face,
And in the evening she still blows 'em in the band.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.
Oral-Me, oral-you, life goes on, brah!
La-la how the life goes on.

And if you want some fun… take Oral-Me, ha ha! (Thank you!)

Weird, just how little alteration this one required! :slight_smile:

Planning to hand them out as “gag” gifts?

Well, at least it’s a paste and not a cream.

I hope not. As jokes go, you see this one coming a mile away.

Yeah, that one pretty much sucked.

Malaysians say new toothpaste name sucks; new toothpaste name says Malaysians suck.

Yes, please, if you would. Thanks! :slight_smile:

Done. :stuck_out_tongue:

Thankee. :smiley:
