...I use closed caption because 1) I'm old and 2) I have 4 dogs who are noisy. So I'm watching My 3 Sons and afterwards there's a commercial for Febreeze car freshener (covering up a woman's beloved dogs 'dog' smell).......all being closed captioned.
Well CC isn't rocket science and it doesn't always work well. The last line of the commercial was ..'because the things you love can stink'...and those words stayed stuck on the TV screen well into the next commercial for a FUNERAL plan. Can you see where this is going? The lady is talking about planning for funerals...and the caption says 'Because the things you love can stink'........

Charmin toilet paper followed by Roto-Rooter.
Fast food restaurants followed by Pepto-Bismal
AARP followed by Viagra

I have 2 sets. One for my husband's t.v. and one for mine. We watch different things so we have a his and hers, but sometimes he's watching something I want to watch too so I just put on the other headphones.
