I was watching TV, and suddenly, I jumped up and had to come post something. The Wendy’s commercials are for complete and utter morons. They have to be! Let’s go down the list of horrors I’ve heard spat at me by that woman they have doing all their talking in those commercials. Why not start …

You Don’t Always Die From Tobacco
I’m pretty sure that this anti-smoking PSA isn’t supposed to be funny, but if that’s the case, somebody failed epically. I’m pretty sure I’ll be singing this all day, especially when I’m out wandering around looking for our polling station.
Subway, Get Fresh
I have not seen this for myself, but our friend Greg phoned us up and told us about it, so I went out searching. References to it are all over the net, but I can’t find a single video of the commercial. Apparently, Subway Sandwiches has started referring to their footlong subs as…as…as…Yum Rockets! That …
Who Knew Selling Beds Could Be So Hard
I know a lot of you people love this stuff almost as much as I do, so enjoy these outtakes from a mattress commercial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k25cbw9_sHI
It’s As Plain As The Tattoo On Your Head
Hmm. Here’s a message to the ad agents at NZ Airline. If you tattoo a message on the bald heads of 50 people waiting in line about speedy check-in processes, and those bald heads aren’t moving very fast, um, won’t your plan backfire? And if the bald heads do move fast, who’s going to have …
More Things Suck

Brain Dump
Well, I’m tired. I didn’t sleep much last night. So I’m hoping this random pile of stuff will make me burn out so maybe I’ll catch a nap. For people who were wondering, I’m doing ok. There are times when I climb the rollercoaster hill and I’m at the top, like when I manage to …
Pricks Exploiting Tragedies Again
This makes me so fucking angry I’m having trouble finding words, but I’ll do my best. I’m sure that by now everybody knows the story of Tim McLean. if you don’t, he’s the guy who was killed in the horrible Greyhound murder last week. I’m also sure that everybody reading this understands what a senseless …
Reverse Advertising
Hee hee hee. Why do I find it amusing that one of our google ads frames is full of greyhound ads right now? Ha ha ha ad targeting! This time, you failed! You failed as much as poor greyhound, who unknowingly created a disastrous ad campaign that had to be pulled after last week’s events. …
Does That Sound Good To You?
Since we’re heading out for some May long weekend food and drinks, I got thinking about two food commercials I’ve heard recently that make me want to hurl! The first was Subway raving about their new pizzas. Mmm! Pizza! They tell you it’s topped right in front of me! Mmm! With whatever I want. Mmm! …
