Sunday, October 17, 2010  Mother, NY... no more 'Mad Men'?
Thank you, creatives at Mother, NY! Nothing like a man in a wig
with a mustache to say tranny loser! har har *slaps knee*
Mother, NY is an award-winning (2009 agency of the year as
determined by Creativity Magazine), hipster ad agency which
often uses humor in ads. They're best known for their whimsical,
widely seen commercials for K-Y and Stella Artois but other
clients include Diet Coke, IKEA and even Amnesty International.
Recently, to publicize their move from lower Manhattan to Hell's
Kitchen in midtown Manhattan, the wits at Mother, NY came up
with a pfuuuunny little promo piece called: Transsexual Barber
shop. *chortle*  NOTE: the section being discussed starts at

creatures? A barber shop (which are for men, get it?) which can
trim the mustaches of men dress
