Spring Break
Best commercial: MacGruber for Pepsi…hilarious.
Worst commercial: “Heroes” playing football…so campy it hurts.
GoDaddy quit teasing
You will show me enhancement?
Please go bankrupt now
Oops. Who knew that penalties in the end zone were bad?
Apparently not that guy.
Apparently, NBC is trying to gelatinize my brain through screening their comedies. Alec Baldwin is in on it. Hulu.com was launched solely for the purpose of stupifying the American populace. Lord only knows what they’re planning to do once the nation has been reduced to drooling, obedient zombies.
I think I’ll go for a walk instead of watching “The Office” after the game. I always knew something was off about Rainn Wilson.
Ed McMahon and M.C. Hammer just appeared in a Cash 4 Gold advertisement, you know, the company that gives you a cut rate price for your gold while pocketing the profit when they sell it back to the market.
Anyway, I wouldn’t make any financial move that these two men suggested. MC went bankrupt and Ed has to lease his house from Donald Trump since he couldn’t afford the payments on it.
Plus, I don’t think the average American has golden silverware and fireplace pokers lying around from years of excess spending.
I think both men appeared in this commercial in exchange for consolidation of their large amounts of credit card debt…or maybe it was for a free ham sandwich.
Contrary to popular belief, dreams very rarely (read 99.999% of the time) do not come true.
New Orleans Saints player Usama Young was featured in a commercial chronicling his incompetence in previous sectors of employment. His reasoning? He wanted to be a pro football player instead of a snow cone vendor or a maintenance man.
Go into work and throw a snow globe at a vending machine and try telling your boss you did it since you want to be the next ace knuckleballer for the Chicago White Sox.
You will be fired. And you aren’t even good enough to pitch for an over-35 beer league team.
Competence at work is a virtue, no matter if you think you are destined for your current state of employment are not.
Watching 3D programming without the requisite glasses is like getting hit in the face with a white-hot wrecking ball. I think I had about 27 epileptic seizures during the course of that Ray Lewis ballerina commercial with the lizards.
I don’t remember what it was for because of the pounding headache that all of the double vision and terrible colors gave me. Midol? Tampax? Burger King? Keystone Light? I don’t know…
Wow. Since when did eating Cheetos become synonymous with being evil? First there was that commercial where that girl put Cheetos in someone’s dryer at the laundromat and now that same evil woman is causing innocent (albeit annoying) bystanders to be attacked by pigeons.
What happened to the cool and jolly Chester Cheetah of my youth? Now he looks like a Chinese monk and he’s making people do evil things.
I am at a loss for words.
Apparently, Hyundai is worried that people don’t know how to pronounce their name. At the end of their ad about winning some sort of automaker’s award, a man said, “It’s pronounced Hunn-day, like Sunday.”
I thought it was pronounced crappy Korean-made tinder box that explodes on impact.
Nevermind, I retract that statement. Apparently the Hyundai Genesis got a five-star crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
I guess I’m getting KIA and Hyundai confused again.
Apparently, Gatorade now considers itself enough of an American icon to be represented by a letter. Their new logo features a G with a lightning bolt going through it.
On their Web site, a congratulations to Serena Williams on winning the Australian Open ends with the phrase “Now That’s G.” Yes, complete with unneeded capitalization.
I guess that phrase lends itself to sports since Gatorade helps people keep hydrated and succeed (supposedly).
Can you imagine if McDonald’s were to launch such an ad campaign?
“Kevin has Type 2 Diabetes, now that’s M.”
“Mary just eclipsed the 500 pound mark, now that’s M.”
“Robert goes on a child-punching rampage if he doesn’t get his McFlurry, now that’s M.”
Plus, does anyone know who the weird masked dudes in the Gatorade ad were? They reminded me vaguely of the Putty Patrol from Power Rangers…
