Message In a Throttle, Part Two
I don’t know what gets into the minds of some advertisers. The following two TV commercials are particularly unpleasant to my sensitivities. I don’t even know what the product is in the first example, which is probably just as well for them.
The first is a commercial where a hollow-chested nerd sprays on deodorant (?) and turns into the creepiest looking brown mass that proceeds to offer up various bits of his body to women. He sprinkles nose droppings on their ice cream, wipes belly button lint on a strawberry, has his ears eaten off, offers a box of his own fingers, melts and serves his hand, has his ass bitten, and finally has his arm ripped off. All the while he maintains a pop-eyed leer while I’m running out of the room to vomit. Hovering over the toilet, I realize what the brown mass really looks like.
I saw the following ad years ago and have refused to eat at Quiznos ever since. What are those things? They use road kill meat!!!??? Back to the vomitorium!
Let me know what commercials turn you off, and I may be able to post them in future blogs.
