    I got a joke like that about 2 penguins, but it's dirty.

    I just saw a commercial that makes me ask:

    Has it been a generational tradition in your family to put a dot of sour cream on the end of each other's noses while cooking?

    I haven’t seen an ad like that but if it is supposed to be some kind of a show of affection, nope. Perhaps a fist, but no dab of sour cream came with it.

    Fists bring back more memories that the sour cream does.

    It's a Daisy sour cream commercial. "Do a dollop of Daisy." Then they playfully put a dot of sour cream on the nose of the little kid...then mom...then grandma. Because brand loyalty gets handed down.

    I guess I'm not the only one who dislikes Daisy.

    Heard on a local radio station:

    Jill: So Sally, what are you getting your husband for Christmas?
    Sally: I’m so stressed out that I haven’t even thought about that.
    Jill: Do you want to talk about it?
    Sally: Well, Bill and I haven’t been intimate in so long I’m at my wit’s end.
    Jill: We had the same problem but my Jim went to “bla-bla” and they tested him and fixed his problem and now we’re like two 20 year old kids!
    Matter of fact, I am so happy with the results I even baked the doctors a cake!
    Sally: Wow, that sounds great! When I get home I’m going to send Bill right down there!

    My first observation is that I have never equated Christmas with sex. I guess that the better the sex is, the better the Christmas gift will be.
    My second one is that we have two women who are comparing their husband’s uh....abilities. Perhaps I’m a bit prudish but......huh?
    Thirdly, Sally is going to go home and “send” her husband to a doctor because.....? I would think that at some point, Sally and Bill might have talked about their intimacy problems instead of Sally and Jill discussing them and then Sally sending her husband to the doctor because Jill said so.
    Forth, If Sally is going to go right home and tell her husband to go somewhere, he obviously isn’t working so if she’s going to send him anywhere it should be to go look for a job.

    I hate the digestive problem commercials. The one where the guy is late to lunch with the girlfriends parents. Late because he had to stop and take a dump?
    How about the one where the three girls are dress shopping. The one with diarrhea is trying on all manner of slinky silky things,Don't know that I would want to try things on after that.
    then the one where the bands front girl has to walk off the stage to the motorhome. I see the band members in the vehicle later. I can just hear it now,"Damn girl What the hell is wrong with you" Jeesh you sure painted the walls in here!
    I end up screming at the TV, "no No Don't hug her she'll shit herself!"

    LOL!!!!!

    I know exactly the ones you mean...
    The Asian bass player with no socks and the felt hat.
    And the 3 young black girlfriends who take the "I bet nobody's ever done this before" picture holding up that big round sculpture in the plaza.
    Or the girl and her I.B.S.boyfriend talking in her childhood bedroom.

    When we were kids, we saw Geritol commercials (only if we watched Ed Sullivan or Lawrence Welk) and we saw Speedy Alka Seltzer. Kids these days must think that everyone has bowel issues, bladder issues or E.D.

    Poor little buggers.

    Can’t forget Ted Mack’s amateur hour. I think Geritol was pretty much their main sponsor.

    I don't give a stool for such commercials.

    I'm really getting annoyed at commercials where:

    1-everyone is wearing a mask
    2-the shot is through cell phone, and that big screen tv I paid for now only shows a narrow strip in the center and the margins are wasted space

    Does everyone now view the world through the screen of a smartphone these days? And that especially applies to food delivery service commercials. Who wants to see an adult broadcasting the opening a daggone box?

    NBC = Narcissist Broadcasting Network.

    Several TV advertizers are now reminding us of that huge stockpile of cash we now have in our paid-up Life Insurance Policies.

    They tell us we can now take that vacation to Europe we've always planned, buy a new Car, remodel our Home, get our Dog's teeth fixed, and pay off those College Tuition and other bills.

    Yeah...that's all great.....but then we won't have any Life Insurance!
