Unintended Double Meaning in Radio Ad
The radio station I listen to runs a lot of PSAs for various government programs. One they started running last week contains the following (approximately):

"*Ding*! That's the sound of your ex-boyfriend sending that picture of you in your underwear to all of your friends. *Ding!* And now to your coach. *Ding!* And, worst of all, to your father."

It is an ad trying to teach (I presume) teenagers to think before posting things online, with the message that it'll be seen by people they didn't even think would ever see it.

But I heard another message -- either it's pro-women's-sports (the photo is being sent to "your coach"), or it's in favor of gay guys dating (it's being sent by "your ex-boyfriend").

Either way, it works for me. But I doubt the US government intended that message.
