Gym Ad Kindly Reminds Kanye That He Married a Shallow Short-Timer

An easy target, to be sure, but here’s a clever bit of celebrity newsjacking from a New York chain of gyms. 

New York Sports Clubs ran the ad above in today’s New York Post, just a few days after the tabloid wedding of the year between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. 

In case you haven’t adequately been keeping up with the Kardashians, the ad references Kim’s brief but zealously overhyped 2011 marriage to NBA player Kris Humphries. Of course, the message is a bit confusing, since it’s unlikely that Humprhies suffered some sort of failed physique during his brief few months as a married man.

New York Sports Clubs Urges Kim Jong-un to Blow Off Steam by Exercising

North Korean strongman lardass Kim Jong-un should take some advice from New York Sports Clubs: "Exercise reduces aggression and makes you more attractive to others. Join today." The gym franchise, known for its snarky promos tied to current events, on Monday placed an ad in the New York City edition of the Metro newspaper inviting the portly potentate to use its facilities for a workout. Copy starts, "Kim Jong-un, with a great bod, you don't need a big missile." That particular bit of low-hanging humor will likely fall flat for the rotund ruler, since the whole missile thing's proven pretty useful for him so far. Still, he'll burn more calories pumping iron than he will by pressing the button.
