    Good point. Plus it's Jon Lovitz in M&M form, so who really gives a fuck?

    But if they're on the planet to be eaten, why do they keep getting invited to parties? More importantly, why would they GO to parties? Seems like a mighty big risk for them to be somewhere that people are drinking alcohol and snacking. It's just asking for trouble.

    They all seem to know each other, so are these the only sentient M&Ms on the planet? Are they denying their M&M heritage by leaving the bag for the human world? If they're ready to get freaky with human women, how do they have sex?
    I have questions.

    All the women in the M&M's commercial are hot. Also, has anoyone ever bought M&M's or because of a commercial? Aren't they impulse buys?

    Anyone see the new Mazda commercial where they're trying to compare some innovation in their cars to Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in baseball? That gets on my nerves.

    I stand by my statement made many moons ago:

    I don't give a fuck what a car can do with a professional driver on a closed course, with optional features. I just want to know if it will start when it's 10-below outside, how well does it handle, is it a comfortable ride on long trips and does it get good gas mileage?

    Show me a real fucking car with a real fucking driver on a real fucking road full of other drivers. And don't make the white guy the bumbling fuck, either.

    You're going to turn the ad world on its head with that kind of subversive thinking.

    OK, not sure what the hell Values.com is and I'm not looking at it and the ad with "You Fill Up my Senses" which seemed to either be selling stock video or tourist packages to Earth was nice the first time I saw it, but seeing it 50 times in two hours of college basketball has convinced me there is no god.

    Any drug ad that mentions "suicidal-thoughts" as a possible side-effect.

    WaxVac, where the guy sticks a Q-Tip in his ear and screams "OW!" with much more force than expected.

    The jackass must have stuck the Q-Tip into the far side of his brain.

    Radio ad that's been in heavy rotation lately:
    "You can't see me because it's radio. I can't see you because I'm totally blind."
    The whole thing is just awkward and stilted, not to mention stupid.

    Ha, agreed 100%, one in a while I will blurt out "OW", just to see if Mrs. Huggy is paying attention.
