I can solve all of the countries problems in three easy steps

[Orrex]

First, vehicles must clearly and accurately indicate their gas mileage, and a miles-per-gallon limit should be set for any road built or maintained through federal funds; driving a below-the-limit vehicle on such a road is a federal offense.

Second, all commercials for cell phones and service-providers thereof must be permanently banned. And only vehicles meeting the miles-per-gallon (described above) may be advertised in commercials broadcast over federally licensed airwaves.

Hell, while I'm at it, all personal assets and holdings over, say, $5,000,000 must be seized and redistributed evenly among the nation's populace.

1. What's the beef with the cell phone ads?

[Orrex]

2. Well, I'm just bitching, mostly

But even inasmuch as I don't generally care to be preyed upon by aggressive commercial interests, I'd like to see something advertised that isn't booze, a cellphone, or an SUV.

3. So Viagra's okay then?

Wow, I was worried for a minute. I so love those commercials! :sarcasm:

4. And don't forget the spam!

My day isn't complete without reassurances that my penis can satisfy hot women. :rofl:

5. Touche!

But don't mistake an omission from my list as an exoneration of the advertised product. There are more stupid commercials in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in my Lounge-postings.

Another one that irks me is that stupid spray-on lubricant. I mean, god forbid you actually touch the person you're hoping to lube! How revolting!
