Web-hosting service GoDaddy.com's Super Bowl commercial -- in which Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli kisses, deeply, lengthily and quite audibly, a curly-headed nerd-type named "Walter" (actually a busy TV and film actor named Jesse Heiman) -- has managed against all odds to crisscross cultural divides and effectively gross out an entire nation.
