How to piss off the Catholic Church
Björn Borg (yes, the former tennis star) just launched a dating service. (I have no idea why) As part of the promotion for that service, this video was produced.

I happen to think it's awesome, but I suspect Herr Pope and his red-adorned cronies won't be particularly pleased by it.

I saw that video last week, but had no idea it was to do with a Borg dating service. Do I have to be ordained to sign up?

Love that commercial!

I initially didn't think was really a dating service. I thought it was a viral campaign designed to raise awareness about marriage equality, because it seems it's just the kind of photo-upload feature we do a lot at work. Put your photo in an existing video... that kind of thing.

So inspired by the commercial, I put in info of a man seeking a man, and they don't have a two-man video, only a man and a woman. They put in an apology at the end.

(The truth is we just couldn’t afford to shoot three different versions.)
So surely it's not a viral anti-8 campaign. It seems you can "chat" with the random person they fix you up with, but if it's really a dating site, it's the worst one I've ever seen (and I met my husband on one; I've seen a lot.)

Still, terrific commercial.

Incidentally, I can think of many many more ways to piss off the Catholic Church.

Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene, but Peter was a better lay.
