ATLANTA -- A new advertising campaign from Spirit Airlines has some tongues clicking.
The Fort Lauderdale-based airline, which specializes in flights to the Caribbean, is advertising a "Many Islands, Low Fares" special.
On Spirit's web site they are calling the offer the "MILF" sale; short for "Many Island, Low Fares."
Some Internet bloggers have pointed that "MILF" is known as an obscene acronym in some circles. It is used to describe an attractive older woman.
Some bloggers suggest the use of "MILF" is an unintentional oversight by the airline.
Others say Spirit knows exactly what they are doing. They point to the image of a Caribbean island in the ad that has been altered to resemble a reclining woman.
ROTFLMAO...............

BAH-HA! Oh my God that's too funny -- when you click in the Spirit Air site, you can't miss the "reclining woman" island image right before the big huge MILF letters come up (and lots of the flight prices are $69 -- I'm sure that was "unintentional" too, right?  ). Well, hey, it worked, we're talking about it and I went to the Spirit Air site which I've never done before in my life... so I bet those marketing guys will be getting big fat bonuses for their "gaff".

In a Disney community, there was a discussion of how to abbreviate Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor. You know - Haunted Mansion is HM, It's a Small World is IASM, and so Monsters, Inc. became MILF, to which some objected.

Ok world...puker up!!!

In a study published recently in the scientific journal "Evolutionary Psychology," 59 percent of men and 66 percent of women said they've been in the position of being attracted to someone -- until they kissed the person. Check out some famous kissing »
"At the moment of the kiss, there's a very complicated exchange of information ... that may tap into underlying evolved mechanisms" cluing us in on whether we're genetically compatible, explains Gordon Gallup, co-author of the study and professor of psychology at the State University of New York at Albany. "A kiss can be a deal-breaker in terms of whether a relationship will flower or flounder, so to speak."
I can remember "surveying" so many when I was younger...until I found the "perfect kisser"...Mr. Sageofages!
