Prevailing Wind January 9, 2018 Share January 9, 2018 I have a problem with the new Mayhem. It's only January 8th. People haven't HAD two weeks yet to give up on their resolutions. But I'm glad he's back. Link to comment

Glad to see the real mayhem back. 7 Link to comment
Bastet January 9, 2018 Share January 9, 2018 Same here; I like that the timeline of Mayhem's "resolutions are made to be broken" coincides with so many resolutions that wind up broken. Sure, there are those that last longer (and those that stick), but I think - as someone who doesn't make New Year's resolutions or do anything else superstitious, but who listens to others - he's comporting with the average, and I'm glad of it. The "I'll be good" commercials were okay, but were just placeholders to me before we got back to mayhem scenarios, which are truly funny. 6 Link to comment
Silver Raven January 9, 2018 Share January 9, 2018 This is a magazine ad, but it made me laugh. Ikea is running an ad in a major Swedish women's magazine which encourages women to pee on the ad. The ad has a pregnancy test built into it, and if it turns out positive, the women can take the ad to Ikea to get a discount on a crib. http://www.adweek.com/creativity/ikea-wants-you-to-pee-on-this-ad-if-youre-pregnant-it-will-give-you-a-discount-on-a-crib/ 5 Link to comment

Even though I disagree with the point of the ad, which is that DirecTV has such great service vs cable. DirecTV service sucks. The only reason I still have it is because of NFL SUnday Ticket I crack up when I see where the guy's pop explodes over him and the inside of his car; the guy on the plane with that horrid kid kicking the back of his chair; the lady who sat in the gum. Oh, and the guy in line at the grocery store and the lady behind him ramming her cart into him. Gawd, I love slapstick. 6 Link to comment

I just saw a video with Shire Horses, I think they are a variant of Clydesdales. The female was dying of colic, and the male rushed to her side (10 years together) and he kept biting her neck and tugging on her mane until she got up. They were minutes away from putting her down! I cried like a baby, he saved her! Beatrice and Beau. 10 Link to comment

It's so refreshing in these xenophobic times. Yes, it's a movie tie in. No, I don't care. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTvMSHVTem0 I actually severely dislike that one. I love the concept, but the execution gets me. "Wook-kee! AWWWWWWWWW! (or whatever annoying noise that was" followed by the Chewbacca noise, and more of that "AWWW" noise. Maybe it's because I'm sensitive to some noises, or maybe it reminds me of the Dumb and Dumber "Most annoying noise" bit (loved that movie).

Part of it is the fact the beer is crappy. But it also just doesn't strike me as that funny or original as most seem to find it. But then I am the rare male who always hated that "And Twins...." Coors light commercial as well from 15 years ago or so. The song was SO BAD, yet it caught on and was everywhere. I hate the Dilly Dilly ads too. I think it's because all of the Eagles fans around here have picked up on it, and are beating it to death with a stick. Ditto on the "And Twins" ad.

It's true for me. Some kids were killed in a car accident near my house. They were driving way too fast, and slid off the road and in to some woods. No seat belt. Ejected from the car and were killed. An elaborate memorial was built in the woods with a bunch of solar light things. Some flash. It drew me in - I felt myself pulling. Enough people complained that they removed the lights. On 1/8/2018 at 10:14 PM, BooksRule said: I know taxes aren't fun, but this commercial sure is. 'Tiny knitted Teddy bears.' Funny!

cpcathy January 30, 2018 Share January 30, 2018 Love the cable commercial with the "evil" guys playing charades, it plays like a mini-sitcom and I laugh every time.

Finagler January 30, 2018 Share January 30, 2018 @mojoween and @Popples IN 2016 my D and I went to NYC and waited in the cancellation line for Hamilton tickets. While we were there, Daveed Diggs was walking past. He was super nice and he let me take a picture of him with my D (it was her birthday). We were lucky enough to get tickets to the show and were sitting in the front row. One of the songs he sang as Jefferson required him to blow a kiss- which he did- right at us- he even winked. My D was over the moon. After the show, we did the stage door and D got her Hamiltome book signed by Daveed, Lyn, Chris Jackson, and others. We have tickets to go see Hamilton again in DC this July. Can't wait. 13 Link to comment

Prevailing Wind February 2, 2018 Share February 2, 2018 I thought InBev was Dutch. No, it's a hybrid Brazilian-Belgian company. From Wikipedia: "InBev is a brewing company that resulted from the merger between Belgium-based company Interbrew and Brazilian brewer AmBev which took place in 2004. It existed independently until the acquisition of Anheuser-Busch in 2008, that formed Anheuser-Busch InBev (abbreviated AB InBev)." No matter, they damn well better leave the Clydesdales right where they are. 6 Link to comment

Blergh February 4, 2018 Share February 4, 2018 I don't know why but I like that Purple Mattress commercial starring Goldilocks who uses 300 pound of glass dropped to see if mattresses can protect raw eggs from breakage! She has just the right 'tude and humor needed to demonstrate the product's attributes (and I hope to see that performer in other things). Still, I'm satisfied with my own mattress and not ready to dump $1000 on a new one! 1 Link to comment
