    ASPCA ads are a little much.

    I hate this one. I'm pretty sure it actually says his parents came home early, not hers, so it makes no sense whatsoever.

    I thought they say "he" as well. Not even sure they even mention a girl/guy involved in which case they would still be at parents house.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's his parents. My only thought (and why he'd have Taco Bell and have to eat it while running away) is that he's smoking a bowl when his parents come home. Other than that, it's confusing as hell.

    Or he was enjoying an apple pie before his stuft nacho.

    It says "her" parents, definitely.

    Yeah, I finally caught it clearly recently. I thought it said "his" the first few times I saw it. The only good part of it is the spittle flying off dad's lip as he curses the kid. Funny little detail. But the commercial, and the concept of a Stuft Nacho, is stupid.

    Or a black taco

    I swear the first several times I saw it, it said, "when YOUR parents come home early" and then it changed. I think they actually changed the voice over. And I was trying to figure it out. Do his parents have a ban on eating nachos in the house and the only way he can do it is when they're gone? Did he not buy enough nachos for everybody and his dad is mad at his refusal to share his nachos? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

    (As a side note: if my dad banned me from eating nachos, I'm pretty sure I'd run away from home too.)

    Man, I swore I heard Your the first few times, too. Of course I've been on copious amounts of cold medicine the past few days, so I wasn't really trusting my ears.

    Maybe they DID change the voiceover. It was definitely much more clear the last couple of times I saw it. CRAZY!

    If I see that stupid Nissan commercial where the woman drives the car on top of the elevated train once more I'm going to puke.
