<Cheesy rendition of "Dontcha wish your Girlfriend was Hot like me" in a jingly kinda beat>
Good Morning Honey, Hidey, Hiney, Fisherfolk of Fishigan U S of A. Enjoying the sunshine and all of the lovely morning dew this morning? The lake is lovely and well..........the fishin is reel good here at KBV radio. Todays topic is television commercials. When I was but a little tacker, commercials were cheesy but had much in common with one another. They all had a cheesy jingle which was like an earworm, all had an attractive housewife with an apron touting the benefits of said food, cleaning or service available and all were pretty straight forward. The Saturday morning commercials made us drool at the mouth at the new cereals *which all contained a toy inside* and new toys which went faster, were the best or came in 7 different bright colors. Saturday mornings were magical as we waited for the next holiday to make a list for the commercialized things. Nowadays, holidays are not needed to get these new things as a kid. A bit of whining or saying that Johnny next door has it most assuredly will cop the new toy for a kid cause Moms are in a race called "whoevers' kids have the best toys and most expensive sneakers wins". I am not sure what they win, but I am guessing it is a lazy, non-working, underachieving, entitlement seeking adult.......but that is just my opinion, take it for its 2 cents..........uhhhmmm......$48.95 cents worth. My biggest problem with commercials today is that they advertise things I do not want to explain to my five year old grandson. Depends for adults......"Nana, why does the lady need a diaper?" Or, Vagisil, monistat, tampax, kotex, ED drugs aplenty, and those public service announcements *NO thanks for this service*......about STDs. First, if you are a woman, and have had a few children and have reached that "certain" age you do not need a nicely dressed 30 year old woman touting the benefits of depends undergarments, you are already introduced. If you are a woman, you KNOW the benefits of the other ........ahem...........personal products and really do not need a glowing cheeked young girl telling us about them. We KNOW......we just know. Now, the ED drugs.............ahem.............married 28 years and not having a NEED for such a drug..........if we were..............we would KNOW. I do not need a fine looking 40 year old couple tellin me we can be ready anytime...............we are..... and if we weren't...........we would KNOW..........and if we did not know, our Doctor would tell us or the barber or the golfing buddies. I eat more because of some of these idiot commercials. I can be watching CSI and their weekly autopsy but I be darned if I do not need DORITOS after seeing those Dang commercials. The biggest pet peeve commercial is for the new yogurts, drinks and food products containing bacteria which "makes your system regular." I would not be surprised if Jaime Lee Curtis had to run to the potty several times while filming that set of commercials. She must be dehydrated by now. I do not need to pay $4.00 for yogurt when I can drink a bit of prune juice or eat some dates or figs. It is less money and much more discreet at the shopping center check out. I can only imagine what the cashier thinks of an order placed on the conveyor belt and the assumptions she or he makes. TV guide.*Hmmmm lonely and bored*.........soap opera digest....*needs a life*........kotex.......*glad I do not live with that PMS beast*........Vagisil and Monistat.....*thought she looked antsy*..........activia...........*thought you looked a little full in the face and grumpie*...........oh RXs for ...... and for ampicillin..........*Oh FFS why won't he leave her alone, she looks weary*.............If it is true that we are what we buy...............our society is a mess............DONTCHA JUST HATE when personal problems become impersonal because of TV advertising?............the worst of all of the above are those beg for money commercials showing me dogs and cats with ribs showing and sad eyes and battered, hairless and most assuredly on last legs....Or the third world starving kids with swollen bellies, flies surrounding their 2 tablespoons of rice and saddest eyes on Earth...........the guilt of it all and the overwhelming need to look away or write a check...............DONTCHA JUST HATE when the advertising people are smarter than you? Yeah, sure, make your tax deductible donation now......
