Can I just say something? (It's my blog... so I don't care what your answer is). I have a serious problem when it comes to commercials and the kids in them who essentially act like heathens.
Seriously? Watch the commercial below, who raises their kids to act like this?! If my son brought home kids who acted like this I would seriously be pissed and the last thing I would do is serve them my frozen goodies; I have better ways to spend my five dollars and it is NOT on kids who act like they were raised in a barn! And what's worse is when the kid DOES offer his bratty friends snacks from his parent's kitchen, they turn up there noses and refuse! Wow!
And while I'm on it, this commercial is annoying as well. At :27, this kid just gets up and leaves his oreo AND a full glass of milk on the CARPET???! Umm no. That kid would be turning right around and picking up that milk before he's on the floor with Resolve. This just isn't realistic. For one thing, he really should be at a table when engaging in an activity that could result in brown crumbs and milk in the carpet. MILK. Am I the only one who knows how bad milk smells after a few days. His mom would be doing some SERIOUS scrubbing to get that smell out. And the carpet is white! You can't eat an oreo without dropping those things EVERYWHERE... so on WHITE carpet? Nope. I don't buy it... for second.
There are many more, namely the kids who run around the house knocking things over and drawing on everything. I suppose these commercials may make parents think "Thank God my child isn't a heathen like THAT! If this product worked for their animal-child, surely it will work with my normal one!" Still doesn't make me just want to put these kids in a really long time-out.
On another note, I was having a conversation with my ole buddy Lucas and we started to reminisce on special episodes of our FAVORITE tv shows. Hahahaha.
Anyway, for a good laugh:
In the clip below, it starts getting good at 6:23, but if you don't have 5 minutes to watch DJ Tanner drama, you can skip on ahead to 9:00, where the Danny Tanner goodness is at a prime. Now, I know eating disorders are no laughing matter... But when portrayed on Full House, I have to say that they are. The last two lines are golden. I hope you enjoy:
