Evidence: "Decorative jalapeño pepper design coordinates with any decor."
Reason I saw this: I love surfing the deals sites and I just had to see what a quesadilla maker is. Trust me it does not coordinate with any decor.

Funny, I've thought the same thing about most everything advertized on TV. What about the gadget guy that DOES NOTHING BUT SCREAM AT YOU.

BUY THIS FUCKING THING SO I CAN STILL AFFORD DYE FOR MY HEAD AND BEARD. I ALREADY HAVE TOO MUCH MONEY BUT BUY THIS THING SO I CAN KEEP AFFORDING HOOKERS WHO LET ME...

Eewww.

At least his lies are slightly more concealed. You might actually believe that oxyclean can get out stains from a shirt soaked in ink and dried in the sun for 3 months. You'd have to be an idiot but at least they try pretty hard to pull it off.

Though I guess it all comes down to greed. If someone can fleece someone else out of money and live with themselves then they'll do it. They probably just convince themselves that a fool and his money are soon parted and they're just getting their piece.

I've zoned out so much advertizement that it takes me seeing a commercial four or five times before it really grabs me. Even then I forget it in a short amount of time.

Like the gum commercial where the goat rams the dude in the guts to get him to spit out his old gum. I must have laughed at that commercial for two months before ever getting what it was for.

I've never been too well swayed by television commercials unless I was supremely hungry or really, REALLY wanted a beer.

Yeah I love how so many commercials never get the point across about what they're even advertising. Even some commercials that I like or find funny I can't remember what they're for.

Most of them don't have souls at all anymore Zeek, so I think they just lose consciousness at night. Or cease to exist, I'm not sure.

This summer it'll be 10 years since I started looking, and so far I've found one marketing guy who still has his soul and yet also has an impressive resume. And I'm not sharing him!

(Happy Birthday NVG!!)

So, lie down already! NVG I think we need to get you one of those beds with the straps they have in nut houses. Otherwise MsA will keep getting up to type "I need to lie down".
