Commercial Uprising


Seriously, I’ve had just about enough of the Viagra and Cialis ads saturating all forms of media.

In these trying times, I think it necessary that the President sign an executive order funneling all advertising monies the drug companies have budgeted for those two products into the economy. If that doesn’t get the Dow Jones average up, pardon the pun, nothing will. If you experience a Bull market lasting more than four hours, please contact an investment professional right away…blach.

Another thing, the Cialis ads featuring a happy couple soaking in side-by-side tubs seemingly out in the middle of nowhere are entirely too farcical to be allowed to continue. Any married guy worth his salt knows exactly what would happen if you showed up on a romantic get away to that.

She’d start with “I know the description on Travelocity said the bathrooms were spacious, but this is ridiculous.” Followed quickly by “look, there’s no plug-ins anywhere. Capped off by the inevitable, “Don't even think about it sparky!”

Look, I understand the need. God bless them for figuring it out-ranks right up there with frozen pizza and the remote control in terms of things man shouldn’t have to live without-but come one. Enough already.
