In a compromise on the great Giant Ass Billboard Conflict of 2007, Toto Washlet [insert beloved Gawker sponsor boilerplate here] has compromised with Times Square Church, the site which was to house the promotion for Toto's fancy new ass-washing machine. Rather than showing naked, smiling asses, the cheeks will be sanitized and covered up by an ass-concealing banner. It's sort of a metaphor for Times Square as a whole, no?

State Supreme Court Justice temporarily bars billboard company from putting up those smiling butt ads in Times Sqaure. We guess you'll have to be content with just seeing them on our site. (Please send your NSFW complaints to our ad king Chris Batty at chris@gawker.com). [AdAge]
