Actually, if anything it sounds like they’re missing fruit.

More of a lime personally, which is weird because I hate actual limes.
Some days it’s Dany with Drogon, other days, it’s Jon Snow slurping his drink…
Oh Jesus… 6 hours and I JUST got that joke… That’s what happens when you spend the day pissed off about white supremacy!

One Million Moms has also criticized GEICO for a commercial showing Maxwell the Pig in a car with a human girl, saying it suggests bestiality.
The American Family Association (AFA) – listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) – created One Million Moms.

Something perhaps schoolyardish in me refuses to see or think or pronounce their name as anything other than “Fayjuh”
The “Fah-yeh” thing just… I don’t know brah
I know people can’t see two women in the bed and not think they just had the sex!!, but if it were a husband and wife, folks’ thoughts would be more along the lines of “she probably woke up first because he was snoring…”
This is just an extension of the fact that when straight people think about gay relationships, they mostly focus on the sex.
A married couple in a bed is perfectly prosaic in most contexts, even if one of them wakes the other with a loving pat on the foot.

Having the woman eat the yogurt with a fork would have totally made this ad.

Truthfully, if I see two young people in bed, the last thing I think of is that they’re married regardless of their genders.
Or lesbians?
Well in this case, both of them appear to be naked. Which is a pretty big indicator they had sex. Or at least that is where the sex is used to sell the product. Even if they did just sleep sleep, they are naked. It is pretty rare for two people to just sleep naked. They usually have jammies.

somebody did a head count once (I think it was during the “Oh Noes, JC Penney has chosen Ellen as a spokesperson!” campaign)[also note, exactly when I started buying my dress shirts/work clothes exclusively at JC penney], and the number was 30K. Not a paltry number of people, but shockingly lower than a “million”, and pretty sad for a national group.
I want to make a joke about Spanish lesbian grandmothers, but I think it would be a step too far.

Whaaaaaaaaa? A) Those commercials are truly annoying… (Who in their right mind wants to hear a pig squeal?), and B) How is it even remotely possible to think that it suggests bestiality? I assumed he was the annoying shit humanoid piglet or whatever getting a ride home from school. Was there some context I missed about them having been on a date or something?
…Or are the million moms hust hot and bothered (and a bit obsessed) thinking about corkscrew porcine ween?
You have to wonder if all this weird putting messed up context where it doesn’t exist is just their variety of indulging in pornography? Instead of watching a racy video, they get to be outraged thinking up weird scenarios and discussing them at length with their compatriots.
Maxwell the pig isn’t a piglet, he’s supposed to be a grown adult (in fact, he’s supposed to be a GEICO customer) in the commercials. Also, he doesn’t squeal at all. He’s got a nasally whiny voice, but he doesn’t actually squeal. In the car commercial, he’s the one driving with a female model in the passenger seat. Because apparently GEICO saves you so much money you can buy a convertible and hire an escort to go with.
ETA: I forgot that he squealed in the very first commercial he was featured in…
Here’s a framegrab from the one the million moms have a problem with:
Clearly it’s playing off the “parking at make-out point” trope, so commonly featured in 1950s horror films.
I was thinking of this commercial. Couldn’t remember what the human in the back seat was (this one’s apparently even worse because it implies homosexual bestiality!).
Stopped paying attention/started muting/changing channel when a Geico pig commercial came on to not hear that annoying noise.
Ah, saw that frame-grab. Maxwell apparently grew up and is totally going to corkscrew that chick. I’ll agree that it’s a little weird seeing a pig at a “make out point”, but weirder than a talking pig? How does he drive with hooves? And holy crap! He’s already naked at the make out point. What a pervert!
