Commercials...

With the Super Bowl looming in the near future commercials have been on my mind. When my friends and I were out for dinner the other night we discussed some of them. But here is my take on them.



First up: Cialis

Ok... I am still trying to figure out what bath tubs have to do with a man being able to place his "tray" in an upright and locked position. Bath tubs? On a beach? On a mountain or cliff? What in the world? Add that to the fact that you are taking this pill to get the "tray" in the upright position in the first place! Why, oh why, are they in SEPARATE tubs? I just don't get it! Not to mention that every time I see this commercial I think to myself what a hassle would it be to get hot water into those things. And the hot water would not last long... so really, they would be sitting in luke warm and quicklycooling water... outside...which again seems counter productive to the effect they are going for. I am just sayin!


Next up: Medicine for genital warts
Just awful. "I'm not just doing this for me but I am doing this for my partner." I for one would have to think twice about knowingly having sex with someone with genital warts. Which leads to my second thought... I am not having sex with anyone with out them wrapping their "tray" in Latex. Which then leads to my next thought... what if it is a serious long term relationship? That SOB better not be hiding that from me... which leads back to my first thought; which is, would I knowingly sleep with someone who has genital warts? I really can only come up with one answer to that question. Hell No! By the time all of this has run it's course through my little pea brain, it's just in time for the side effects/ warnings part of the commercial. "Do not take this medication if you have advanced HIV or AIDS" :::sigh::: If you have advanced HIV or AIDS... I am pretty sure that genital warts is the least of your worries... I mean really. Particularly when you said that you were also doing this for your partner. Now I know, I know... that genital warts are probably very uncomfortable and etc. I am sure just going through a break out would lead you to want to lessen it or not have them at all... but that just goes back to my second thought. I am not having sex without a condom! Latex is a wonderful thing! And that leads to my final thought, Note to self: "Self! Make sure you get your partner tested for STD's before deciding it's a serious relationship!!!"

I really hope the Super Bowl commercials are good this year. Greenbay already lost for the season. Lost badly acutally. And the only thing I have to hope for during this time is that I will laugh often at the commercials. Speaking of Super Bowl commercials, what ever happened to the Bud Bowl?

LOL I never thought about the separate tubs thing. If you had tubs actually plumbed onto the cliff it would easy to fill, and the water would be hot. Still, I see your point. Why not just a hot tub?

Oh, and my favorite Super Bowl commercial in the last 10 years was the Planter's Nuts cashew chick. I just LOVED her. I wrote about it in the blog that year.
