Two Commercials
After more than six weeks of nonstop television viewing I feel totally qualified to critique commercials. There are two right now that send me up the wall!!!!!! I told this to the husband who has not seen either of these commercials a thousand times. He had the nerve to say that I complain about everything. Also some mess about not liking anything. Well little does he know that if one of those commercials come on with him by my side he might become strangled!!!! Let us discuss these two commercials. The first is the Dodge Ram. Yes the pictures of Mohammad Ali and everybody else are nice. But how in the world are they related to a truck? And the man's voice is beyond irritating like he is reading poetry about a truck. Please I wasn't born yesterday. This commercial is not going to make me want a Dodge Ram. Instead I want to choke the voice that keeps saying "I am Ram". The next commercial is the Walmart one. You know the one that lasts as long as an infomercial. The one with the cutesy blonde that is selling small appliances. You know at the end of the commercial she goes home with a customer to help with her party. Please do you believe that? Have you ever seen an employee leave with a customer? Buy a vacuum cleaner and have an employee go home with you and vacuum your house.I don't think so. After viewing this particular commercial two billion times I knew Walmart had crockpots. The husband said we needed one. I said go to Walmart. He did and there were not any there. So why I am having to change the channel twenty times a day to avoid the Walmart crockpot/blender/ electric fry pan commercial? I feel so much better after sharing this.
