Skittles - Newlyweds - Dir. Cousins [Not affiliated with Wrigley or Skittles. Contains explicit content not suitable for minors] from Cousins on Vimeo.

Generally, Mondays at work are the worst day. There's nothing better to put a dampener on a great weekend than a mountain of filing, or a screen full of spreadsheets. This particular Monday, however, has already been saved by what could be the best internet viral video of all time ever...

Bold words, agreed, but take a look at "Newlyweds" created for Skittles and we're sure you'll, like us Linters, be rolling around in laughter. Never before have we seen a sweet brand so brazenly refocus its attention away from its core audience. This clip is most certainly not for kids.

Indeed, as you'll see, the tone is most certainly adult. And although you might get away with the action on screen up close, from afar and audibly we reckon it's definitely going to get you in trouble at work. You have been warned.

It's on a par, if not slightly better, that the Diesel - Safe For Work Porn vid from a couple a years ago (which requires signing in to YouTube to view)...

UPDATE: Like many others, we've recently found out that the Skittles Newlyweds video is not a genuine viral campaign by the confectionery giant, but an elaborate parody (see sharetherainbows.com/disclaimer). However, regardless of its authenticity, it will have done no harm to the sale of Skittles. And we should all be applauding the clever work by film collective Cousins.
