I think the real demon of the advertising world is that whoopee commercial where the guy has a cold and he's carrying a glass of milk up the stairs.

1. Who the hell drinks milk when they have a cold? That'd just make you more phlegmy!
2. Are we supposed to believe that this guy has so little muscle control that he can't sneeze without spilling an entire glass of milk?

Yeah, but there are still some marketing gems out there. Seeing Brian Boitano and Lawrence Taylor duck hunting in a canoe just makes me want to run out and grab some Jack in the Box.

What the hell is Brian saying at the end of the commercial? Couldn't understand it...

SowCow... dunno its real spelling.

You gotta love the:

L.T.: "What can you get for a buck these days?"
B.B.: "Your autograph."

I'm truly amazed people still use Lawrence Taylor to market their wares.

Commercials suck. They are written by either the dumbest people on this planet, or to appeal to them.

Either way, when a commercial comes on- it's time the change the channel.
