The narrator is a slow-talking, over-enunciating woman with a breathy voice that also somehow sounds like she has a mouthful of food. And the music in the commercial almost overpowers her, but not enough that I can’t hear it. I don't think I saw that one but I do like the one they have for Diet Coke.....the "mom" commercial. I especially like the end when they say she can win an argument with just four words "Because I said so." LOL Edited May 25, 2021 by AnnA 4 Link to comment

Mila Kunis is saying "It wasn't me" when Ashton Kutcher accuses her of eating his Cheetos, and Shaggy (the rapper responsible for a song in which "It wasn't me" was the chorus) is telling her to say that. When she blames Shaggy for eating the Cheetos, he says "It was her." to Ashton Kutcher. Let these celebs all have their Cheetos along with the Rabbit getting all his Trix because I've never liked either of the above items! 1 4 Link to comment

It’s an awful decibel and really hurts my ears. It then talks about surgery to help people with a certain hearing deficit. 1 Link to comment

What the heck is ball acne? I have never heard of that. And how would you know if you had it? I couldn't see the forest for the tree? Those balls are pretty well hidden. Of course later on in life he probably would have to tuck them in one of his socks. Gravity is a bitch. Still, up until then, how would anyone ever know they had ball acne? I didn't think he was being obnoxious. Then they would have thrown an absolute hissy fit back in the mid 70s when kids used to ride in a back of a pickup and/or station wagons without any restraints whatsoever. It was common back then. It doesn't make it right, it was a different time. The pig commercial wasn't real, I don't know why anyone would make more out of it then there was. I know! In the front seat, in the back of the station wagon, in the back of the pickup..totally common!

With all these shootings in our country, how irresponsible is it to have someone shooting up a convenience store? What are these ad agencies thinking. 5 Link to comment
