at 17 - 5 so far i'd say the yankees are causing the fenway faithful to purchase more alcohol for memory loss, thus improving the local economy. sales of butt cushions will also probably be up in boston after that rightous ass kicking.cloud8 wrote:Shit yeah!

Re: The say what's on your mind thread ....
I haven't had cable television in more than a decade. I own one TV that was given to me by my father a few years ago. He bought a flat screen and had no use for his old CRT unit. The only thing I use if for is movies. Over the weekend, I started to crave football. I usually watch it at the bar, but going to the bar meant putting on pants. Fuck that. I ended up digging through my garage and eventually finding a set of rabbit-ear antennas. I hooked them up to my TV and spent a good 10 minutes dialing them in to get a picture. Halfway through the Dallas/Washington game, I had had enough. Commercials ruined it for me. When I watch the games in a bar, I don't seem to notice the commercials, but at home, they're just too much.
I'm not sure what pissed me off more, commercials every 30 seconds, or the fact that the commercials were NOT annoying. If commercials suck, it's easy to hate them, but when they contain more production value than most modern movies, you find yourself interested. Then reality strikes and you realize that you're interested in a commercial. Your conscience manifests itself in the form of an angelic cherub resembling John Pinnette on one shoulder and a demonic Mel Gibson on the other...
Cherub: "Ohhhh, look! That guy just found the internet near a pot of gold! Leprechauns are adorable!"
Mel: "Look at you... sitting there, staring with your mouth open. Do you even know what your watching? You've no idea what's for sale, but you can't help but reach for your wallet, can you?"
Cherub: "Those Geico cavemen are hilarious."
Mel: "Yeeeees. That's right. Succumb to the dark forces of the television. Your brain activity has plummeted into the basement of hell!!! YES, YES! You couldn't be closer to death if you had a mouth full of shotgun with your toe on the trigger!!"
Cherub: "I could really go for a cherry lime-aid from Sonic. They have the best tater tots in the WORLD."
Mel: "Wait....where are you going?!?!? Stop that! Nooooooo!!"
*turns TV off, tosses rabbit ears in the trash*

That is a great post, Curb Feeler. I have a degree in Marketing, and I could not possibly hate commercials any more than I do now. Especially those Miller Lite commercials advertising the More Taste League. Fuck you. And the Coors Light commercials advertising the bottles that change colors when they are cold enough to pour down your gullet. Fuck you, too. And any commercial with sassy soccer moms. Fuck you as well.

They act like it's a first - Polish brewer Zywiec has had one of those changing-color-blue-thingies on their bottles for years. So fuck Coors for being Stanley-come-lately, too!Rip Rufus wrote:And the Coors Light commercials advertising the bottles that change colors when they are cold enough to pour down your gullet.

Re: The say what's on your mind thread ....
Just count your blessings you don't get the radio ads with that grating, screaming schmuck from the "Major World" car dealership where you are. He literally SCREECHES for the enTIRE 60 seconds. And I don't mean in the funny "Crazy Eddie" kinda way. (?)
And don't start with me how the marketing has done its job 'cuz I remember the name of the dealership. It is BECAUSE of these ads that I will NEVER buy a car from these sons of motherless whores. Anybody who would perpetuate such an unbeLIEVably IRRITATING ad campaign should not only be run outta business, they should be drawn and quartered.
Say, you Englishmen have pretty much cornered the market on that drawing and quartering thing - Steverino, Stig, Malky, Audie - any of youse available for a proper drawing and quartering for a certain voiceover guy? Airfare's on me.

The coors labels are retarded. You see, I have this built-in hot/cold sensor that I've used for years to determine the approximate temperature of various objects. It's called a "hand".
