I admit to some ignorance on this issue. CW - I have asked before that any irony/sarcasm arrives THIS IS IRONIC written, in triplicate, so as to avoid embarrassment on my part.

They're trying to do a good thing with this promotion; if you realised that your cocaine had been up a bloke's hole, you would think twice before snorting it off a piss-soaked toilet seat.
