Did You Ever Wonder????

Did you ever wonder where the woman that a dusting spray product traps in the glass box for 7 days, to show how well the product keeps dust from coming back for 7 days, goes to the bathroom????

You trap a supposedly unsuspecting woman in a glass box and hold her there for 7 days to show how your product keeps the dust from coming back.....I don't even wonder where all this new dust is supposed to come from if she is in a closed box....or how tightly is the box sealed....or how does anyone have so little to do that they could stay in a box for a week...or why isn't she pissed about this happening to her....I don't even get caught up thinking about the legal issues of imprisoning a person against their will......nope...it's the "Where does she go to the bathroom?" that I can't get past.

Come on....a major corporation expects us to accept that this woman is sitting in a glass box waiting for the dust to settle and we aren't supposed to notice that she doesn't have a bathroom?

Personally, I think the commercial would be much more effective as a carpet cleaner & paper towel ad. Seriously....after 7 days in a glass box dust settling on the coffee table would not be the big mess to clean up!

And what about the .org that has a TV ad that is telling people to slow down and enjoy life so you will have time to "stop and smell the flowers".......well, someone should have told them and the commercial maker that the zinnias that they show popping up through the cracks in that asphalt don't smell. I can see the symbolic use of the family eating at the table in the middle of the freeway.....but when they tell me to smell the zinnias they just lose me.


What can I say.........just chalk it up to hoisting the crazy flag a tad bit higher on this hot still Friday.

Have a great Friday!!!

BE BOLD, EAT CAKE, WEAR ART!!!
