It's a funny thing when you find yourself defining a boundary of good taste that you never knew was there. Like most people I know, I'm a libertarian type when it comes to people skateboarding on moving cars or piercing body parts. Even the worst stuff on the Web just makes me want to just click away and move on.
But PokerRoom.com pushed my buttons. They created a viral ad that wants to be oh-so-edgy, but as Kent Brockman would say, there's only one one for it: idiocy. I won't try to describe the ad or explain why the half-brained dolt in it is adding bullets to the gun with which he's playing Russian Roulette. I'll just leave it to you to decide if this makes you want to play poker with or even be associated with the types of people this ad targets.
