Huh! If you think that's stupid just look at the Ministry of Crap Design thread and see what some of the saddoes are complaining about there - especially in car parks!!
Mind you that lime looks a bit pervy 'though...
Fruit having sex! Talk about 'in the eye of the beholder'!
Reminds me of that saying....
"I've got the lime if you've got the inclination..."
You have to admit though, it does cross the lime a bit!
Please - someone stop me!
I'll never think of Hard Candy in the same way again....

I guess this will become an excuse for fruity remarks.
What a fruit and nut-case
I'll have that song from the adverts going through my head all day now.
It's the kind of thing that's going to anger people who don't have a lot of sex.
I, Brian Pears, am firmly in favour of fruit sex.

Not sure really - I've a friend who always refers to me as "Me old fruit" and I've never figured what meaning he has in mind either.
I'm old enough to think of "Pears" as a soap ...
Coincidentally I use nothing else - though I'm not related to the founder.
It aint a lucky family - Mr Thomas Clinton Pears inherited the soap business from his father in 1909. Three years later he decided to travel to the USA with a view to expanding his business there. So, on 10 April 1912, he left Southampton bound for New York - in first-class cabin C-2 on the S.S. Titanic. A memorial service was held in London on the 21st.
