When commercials turn good

Post by JohnnyTwoEyes »

Here's a french commercial on using protection to prevent contracting AIDS.

http://www.devilducky.com/media/45030/

It is, by far, the most heartwarming of all advertising media. Feel free to share any advertisements that have brought you a smile, moan, groan, or giggle.

Edit: there's also a hetero version here http://www.devilducky.com/media/30912/ which is almost as heartwarming.

I think if I was going to parody that Folgers advert it would involve a man in a bell tower with a Savage 10FP rifle with a Leupold scope.

I liked the commercial about the kids wanting a cell phone.

a spoof of horror movies featuring children as the villians. quite awesome.

I hate the Stanley Cup playoffs.
Not because I don't like hockey. I mean, I can think of better things to do with my time, but I don't loathe the sport or anything.
But if I have to watch that motherfucking Budweiser ad one more time, I'm gonna snap. And it's gonna be pretty damn ugly.

the folgers one: hideously creepy, all i can picture is "we are the MorningBorg(TM), you will not be permitted repose." thoguh i'm glad my fears weren't confirmed and the coffee didn't turn him into one of the strange glowy fuckers, jsut went "tolerate mornings"....

the ohter ones... all i can think of is that this is what happens when a sadist plays Sims...

Oh god, the gay sex. :shucks:
The gospel preacher, the hostile teacher/The face of God with an impostor's features
This is the prophecy - the cult leader/The people's temple, the holy ground, the war compound
Four-pound to rifles, disciples, the holy idles/Supreme truth, the cult leader with the green tooth
The multi-millionaire with a stare that can freeze troops/I program people to kill
The motiviational speaker, my words cause people to feel/It's mind control, let the cult leader guide your soul
Open up your eyes to the lies he told/The general, the chief, I be the political pioneer
The cult leader, you can believe in me, I am here/Bless the children, take you under my wing, shelter
Helter Skelter, this is it, you can't kill me I'll exist forever. Cult Leader!

why do I need help from drinking a certain alchoholic beverage?

that doesn't make any sense what-so-ever.

I guess now you guys are going to say that I like to make love to my sister and that I watch nascar right.

Why be so needlessly confrontational?

I believe Honor was alluding in a comical way to the common belief that the beer you drink is inferior to a great number of other beers. Many people are of the opinion that American beer is, to put it simply, crap, so you have to expect some good natured ribbing if you come out in favor of it.

I can't even drink beer anymore, so instead I'll go back to the original topic, commercials.

Anybody remember the Pow-Pow-Powerwheels commercials? They haven't been around for years and that still gets stuck in my head.

I've said it before... But because this country was founded, at least in part, by people who just had to find a whole new place to live because the English were too randy and lascivious and wild for 'em.

It's probably impossible another culture that is at the same time as wholly obsessed with sex, but also as repressed about it as is the United States.

If you drank other beers besides butt light, it'd make sense. ;-)

But the making love to your sister thing... That's hot. Very hot. I'd love to nail my sister really well, just once.

But the nascar... if that's real... you know. Get help.
