What's this I see in an advert on TV last night?
Immac is changing it's name to VEET!

You can just hear it now:

"Just going upstairs to veet my legs"
"Okay dear"

WTF? :confused:

Jif to Cif is OK, and Marathon to Snickers is OK, but VEET? Crap name! It's globalisation gone mad, etc etc ... I expect Naomi Klein will write one of her poncey 6th-form essays about it soon ;)

LOL, I'm considering creating the brand name "No Logo" just to piss Naomi Klein off :D

Veet? What the hell? Who makes up these words?

Notorious -- :D

Did I dream it, or is it true that "No Logo" is trademarked by her? If so, just another whore at the capitalist gang-bang, as Bill Hicks would say .... :rolleyes:

brickboy - marathon to snickers is NOT ok...how can you say that ;)

Doesn't matter what it's called -- it still comes up peanuts, slice after slice ... ;)

'Just off to Veet me badger darling' - just doesn't sound right to me.

That's one hell of a euphemism! :eek:

LMFAO @ Mooseracer!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D

Dan - that did make me chuckle (almost a coffee gusher!!!) :D

In the very dim and distant past, do I not remember that Immac, (or, if not Immac, then something else), was actually called "Veet-O", and part of their advertising was that the process was "Veet-Odourless)??

Brickboy surely you mean wipe after wipe?

LOL, I went to use some of the stuff last night but the can had de-pressurised :( All the stuff was in there but I couldn't get it out :rolleyes: Its a con I tell ya :D

that's WD40.

It was either 'VEET' or 'SPREAD' apparently

Going upstairs to VEET my legs OR Going upstai.............

;) Pete

Isn't Muji already based on this concept?
