“Don’t let diarrhea slow YOU down!”

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

Who? Me?!? What?!? I’m not slow. What’re you talking about?

Oh, don’t mind us. We’re just schlepping a pill for something we made up. Are you slowed down by diarrhea?

Seriously. Have you ever been “slowed down” by diarrhea? Do you know anybody that ever has been? Do you know anybody that knows anybody that ever has been? Do you know anybody that knows anybody that’s actually ever heard the rest of that commercial?

I haven’t and it’s not even, really, the Beavis (and Heidi) thing. It’s how ridiculously preposterous it is and how serious they make it sound.

Look into that and get back to me. I’m working on a very important expo-zay and I think I might be able to get Michael Moore on board but only with YOUR very crucial input! You must act now!

I’m going to work on avoiding laughter long enough to figure what they’re advertising.

Call now and I’ll double your order! You just pay separate processing and shipping!

(And, by the way, if this really is a problem for you, please accept “laugh here” instead of an apology and realize that that particular medication doesn’t require advertisement. If you need it, you’ll surely seek it out.)
