Woman Pees On Rug In Hotel's Racy New Ad Campaign

Categories: Media

I'm always peeing myself at the Standard Hotel, especially on their Tuesday night rooftop parties filled with tourists and weirdies.

(Or I should say tourists and other weirdies.)

But I never imagined that the hotel would use the image of a woman actually peeing--on a lovely shag throw carpet--in their new ad campaign.

Their ads are a series of Erwin Wurm shots dealing with the invasion of personal space, called "Instructions on How To Be Politically Incorrect."

There's also a photo of someone spitting into someone else's soup, and one of a guy going for some breast milk!

OMG.

What a Wurm!

I am utterly horrified, disgusted, appalled, repulsed, and offended, and I'm staying at the Standard real soon!

I would expect this from The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas, where they send out mixed messages in their print ads on what is acceptable behavior from their guests (apparently anything goes, as long as you pay for the damages).  ... Or maybe this is a tie-in promo for the new Nicole Kidman/Zac Efron movie?  ;-)

Holly Woodlawn did it on the sidewalk in Trash. A great visual punchline.

As long as the ad campaign is getting into bodily fluids. how about cum on the comforter?

Is public peeing now a marketing ploy? (wait till the vodka companies get a whiff ... ewwww)

Not that I'm suggesting that, mind you.

Wouldn't she have to squat?

 @bwaybill Only after she's given birth, or after 40. I used to beat most men in a "Pish in a Dish" contest.
