Yes, because we'd never realize those shorts had pockets otherwise. *rolleyes* Dumb ad.

Not to mention that nasal voice is SO annoying. I just noticed that when she says she's already lost weight, his head whips around in disbelief. Hee!

Because kids that age are obsessed with ninjas these days. Or zombies. Seriously, I want to smack her for being such a shrew. He's your husband, not your child. He's your equal, not your inferior. He contributed to the purchase of that fridge and he can look through it any damned time he wants to. Bitch.

My Lucy was born feral and rescued as a kitten. She's such a love bug. She came to snuggle under the covers with me last night. <3

I love black kitties! We had "barn cats" on the farm, growing up, and the majority of them were black.

Whew! I misunderstood. Thanks, B!

Wait - that's the same woman who dresses up like a cat burglar?" Wow, she looks totally different.

At the end, she looks like she's doing the "running man" dance. Not sure how that's supposed to be sexy or "jazzy", as the husband calls it.

Depending on my mood, I either think they're fun or that they're frenetically trying WAY too hard in a way that makes me feel very overstimulated. And confused about the whole point of the ad. Are they pitching to the ADHD demographic? (tongue firmly in cheek)

Andrew, right? Tom Lenk? Thought he looked familiar.

I think it's more a matter of the drug lowers your immune system, so you're more vulnerable to serious infections. You'd still have to be exposed to someone with TB, but if you are, your normal immune responses are less able to fight it off. It's kind of like the steroid inhalers people take to prevent asthma attacks. You need to rinse your mouth out after taking them, otherwise the steroid residual in your mouth makes you vulnerable to thrush, an oral fungal infection. [/your friendly respiratory therapist]

I can't listen to that without thinking of this (that poor octopus):

Nope. Check back on page 6.

I liked the kitty myself.

Let's have another rescue, ala Luxe! That would improve this show. Have Jackson ream these idiots and take the cat for its own good. I'd bet a bunch of these idiots would agree to that possibility because they'd never think it could happen to them. Have viewers compete to be the new owners.

(((Bastet)))

I keep imagining this ad with that song, "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" playing until the side effects disclaimers start. Then you hear the record-scratch sound, followed by disclaimer guy saying, "Actually, it's the other way around - rarely - but probably permanently. Ask your doctor blah, blah, blah."

Wow, I totally took that differently. I thought it was odd because of the gender reversal - the women do the macho arm fold, while the wimpy guy clasps his hands together like the stereotypical nervous little woman standing by her bad, bad man at the obligatory apology press conference (think politician or celeb caught doing something stupid and/or scandalous).

Yeah, what happens when you try to avoid something and the car overrides your input? I remember a plane crash where that happened. They were making a low pass as part of an air show. When they tried to pull up, they couldn't because the "safety feature" on the plane had decided they were so low, they must be landing. By the time they got the plane to obey, it was too late and they went plowing through some trees at the end of the field. Worse yet, the plane was filled with people, many of whom had received free tickets as part of a promotion. Thankfully, only 3 died. They hung the pilot out to dry rather than admit there might be something wrong with the design. He was one of the best pilots in France and he's still trying to clear his name.

Politically incorrect chiming in here. I was horrified when the Ensure ads first came out. I work in a hospital, and it's pretty common to hear people refer to Ensure as "gomer chow". I couldn't imagine people voluntarily drinking it. It's gritty and nasty by the time they add all the shit that makes it "nutritionally complete".

True, but that would make sense and this ad is touting the self-stopping car, so...

I thought Dad saw it, but knew the car would stop itself and wanted to teach the kid a lesson.

Yeah, cats don't deal well with stress and changes. They freak if you rearrange the furniture, so I can only imagine what Luxe is going through.

I guess I'm extraordinarily fortunate, because I never had the "chicken fat" song inflicted on me.

Aw, damn. Poor cat. I was actually hoping this. And that there was no actual medication needed. Exactly. Maybe it's not fair, but I developed a hate-on for shithead boyfriend/husband/whatever. If Luxe has issues, a lot of them may be due to, or exacerbated by said shithead. Eh, that's not fair either, as I've had a bipolar cat that loved me until he hated me and shredded me. I don't think it was FHS, though. I gave him away to some college kids who never saw ANY aggressiveness out of him. And I had a cat that I had picked from the litter because she seemed so quiet and laid-back. Turns out, she was afraid of EVERYTHING, and would lick the fur off her flanks and pull the fur off her stomach. The vet and I tried steroids and kitty antidepressants, but she was that way her entire life, and she was never abused - quite the opposite. I just feel so bad for Luxe, I want someone to blame.
