Aflac fires Werner?

Wtf?

Was it too controversial? I didn't even see past the title because I had to run errands.

What happened?

I believe the AFLAC duck wrote to C-Mac directly expressing displeasure at being associated with a smoker...

Trying to recreate one of Werners special moments for an Aflac commercial, a boombox was dropped on the duck. So unfortunate.

A life insurance spin now?

Survival says WTF
Be careful what one wishes for
As it will almost always cause changes

before all that good luck..

Werner's been going downhill ever since I met him.

And smokers aren't really good for the image of a firm dedicated to sending you money so you can buy fags when you are sick and can't work.

I heard in the washroom that AFLAC is merging with ObamaCare. This may have something to do with it.

WTF, I'll come clean--I've never heard of the thread.

That being said, the owner of the Cigar Monkey tobacconist has a JR terrier named Winston. He barks at you when you enter the shop. Talk about a stupid pet trick. Winston is a curmudgeon, just like Werner. Werner's been known to suck on Winstons, too.

Sold...stupid American!
