Time for a Pop Quiz, Upper East Siders!

Do these new print ads make you want to:
A) Tune into new episodes of Gossip Girl starting Monday, April 21, on the CW?
B) Join up with one those parent watchdog groups that want to do away with our First Amendment rights and censor everything we watch in the name of "family" programming?
C) Donate a thesaurus to every student in your local high school in hopes of reinstating the use of actual words in their generation's collective vocabulary?
D) A little bit of all of the above?

They say a picture's worth a thousand words. We'll see how many viewers a steamy photo of two teenage characters and a vulgar acronym is worth when this new ad campaign hits streets in a few weeks, unless the aforementioned parent watchdog groups manage to stop it.

OMFG, indeed.
