Raindrop needs answers and she needs them fast!




Will somebody explain to me what that picture has to do with the Indiatimes auction? It makes no sense to me, and it just looks very creepy. And she's not even pretty. If you're the woman in that picture, I'm just saying that because I'm jealous that you get to be in an ad and I don't.

Is that supposed to be 'Bound woman for sale, Re. 1'? I hope not!

Unknown said...

one of her strap seems thicker than the other, or is it the wire (rope) that has her entwined?

Madame Mahima said...

lol u crazy cow!
that looks like an S&M session gone wrong

sac said...

um, a symbol of the frustration of never ever being able to win anything at re.1? like those mythical deccan airlines cheap seats.

My theory: What hot woman worth her salt would spend time looking around auctions online? She'd make her minion do it, or, if she was really hot, make him buy it in-store.

This one here is so hooked, she's done a little wild on with her mouse (she's can't afford a wireless one).

Advertising a product is most effective when played to the right demographic, hence the not-hot female specie.

I cant stand her hair. She cant pull off short hair at all. Argh.

Unknown said...

Ladies, just because she turns me on is no reason to hate her. Give turning me on your best shot. Don't get mad, get even.

APOO said...

The pic is that of a male!
He says u can tie him to the bed with those strings and get downright dirty. Sex is being auctioned for re 1.
Raindrop: U might also get handcuffs for a buck... I know u like em handcuffs. Am sure he would agree to replace those strings with handcuffs!

Raindrop said...

Imhunt, I have no idea! What bothers me is that it's around her neck..that's scary..

Mahima, yeah...wouldn't want to be with a guy who binds my face and NECK!

Sac, yeah, and there are more reasons not to fly deccan than the non-availability of cheap fares..

Drunken, you might actually be right! I'd hate to be that mouse, wouldn't you?

Punkster, I agree! I don't think she can pull off ANY hair, to be perfectly honest.

Mediocretes, just when I thought your taste had improved dramatically! You just need another good whipping, boy. Does that turn you on? Huh? HUH? (That's how I keep him in line, Mahima. Lots of whipping. I show him no mercy. )

Apoo, I wouldn't pay Re 1 for sex with THAT dude. I'm not into men who wear lipstick. And I'm not fussy about handcuffs. I've been known to improvise with scarves.

Yeah, that puzzled me at first, but now it seems obvious. It's subliminal advertising, see. They're trying to boost DVD sales for Shaun of the Dead.

Unknown said...

Marketing geniuses at Indiatimes know exactly how to get people talking about their ads. And you dumbasses fall for it.

Watch this banner become a pop culture phenomenon.

Wheres my tag?

*sulk*

jhantu said...

its a S&m/bondage auction.. bound and gag the bitch, spray her with perfume, use ur digicam to snap her, or your cell phone to make your very own mms clip aptly titled "the new india times scandal"..

elementary

Raindrop said...

Nath, and all this time I thought it was to boost sales of Hall's throat lozenges..

Mediocretes, shut up and come here, you useless thing.

Punkster, I'm sick. Be nice to me. :(

jhantu, that's a little too obvious, though, don't you think?

nevermind said...

Such is life, Raindrop. Maybe you should chop that hair and get some wires..

Unknown said...

I've seen ramp models strut with such things on, maybe its for those.

or

The woman is frustrated because she spent a whole lot of money buying all that while she could've simply logged onto the auction site.

Prosaic, repulsive, lack of sleep.

My theory: Its a message to the guy to tie her up or she will buy everything @ the auction... But tying her up will only increase her resolve :)

Scritch said...

I think it IS woman for sale Rs. 1. Male oriented shitty ads.

Raindrop said...

Nevermind, funnily enough, I AM considering chopping that hair.
I'm not sure about the wires though.

Imhunt, interesting theory, but I'm not buying it. It's definitely more sinister than that.

Born a libran, that just proves MY theory that men are evil AND stupid. :)

scritch, yeah, that's my pet theory. They could've used a slightly better looking woman though, but then again, men don't care as long as it's wearing a skirt. Or wire around its face.

Scritch said...

I too would have preferred a nice looking woman, but its the unconvincing expression on her face that is more irritation.
your new profile picture looks eerily like my friend ratna
