Viva Viagra???????? Has anyone SEEN that commercial???

[SeattleGirl]

Watching Countdown, and this commercial just came on. Buncha guys sitting around, playing guitars, drums, etc. Then they start singing Viva Las Vegas, but instead, they say Viva Viagra.

Holy shit. :eyes:

1. VIAGRA! CHA CHA CHA!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:hi:

2. I saw that while watching KO.

I don't know whether to be amused or horrified. A little of both, I think.

[SeattleGirl]

4. I'm leaning toward the horrified end of the scale.

I was in the KO forum posting when that came one, and said I needed to get out my Elvis CD, and play Viva Las Vegas, to get that OTHER version out of my head!

[matcom]

3. I ALMOST POSTED THE EXACT SAME THING EARLIER!

i SWEAR!

saw it for the first time this afternoon!

didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

SO.FUCKING.STUPID.

bravo! :applause:

[SeattleGirl]

5. Yeah, very stupid! I always thought their commercials were goofy,

but they definitely jumped the shark with this one!

[no name no slogan]

6. What next? Ole Olestra?

:wtf:

[SeattleGirl]

7. LOL!

I think I'd rather hear that, than Viva Viagra!

8. When Exactly Is Big Pharma Going To Make A Sex Drug For WOMEN?

They started out marketing Viagra to old men -- think Bob Dole. And right away another old man (Hugh Hefner!) cackled that this country now had a LEGAL sex drug, and that sales were going to be off the charts to men of all ages.

Sure enough, the men in the commercials have become younger and younger over time. And sales are off the charts.

And Medicare and private health plans PAY for this drug when they WON'T pay for women's contraception!

So I want to know -- when am I going to get MY sure-fire legal orgasm drug?

Sheesh.

And oh yeah, I saw that commercial tonight. :eyes:

9. But, but, it's OKAY for MEN to have sex, and sex drugs, and such.

But WOMEN?????

Only on Saturday nights, missionary style, under the covers, and (for the woman) ONLY for the purpose of procreation!!

Sheesh! Didn't you read the manual? :sarcasm: of course.....

And now that you mention it, the men in the commercials ARE getting younger.

[no name no slogan]

10. They already do. It's called red wine.

:hide:

11. ........

21. Viagra guarantees the STIFFY, not the BINGO.

I'd settle for you guys getting the FEMALE "stiffy drug". I think I can PERSONALLY guarantee a HERCULEAN effort toward the BINGO.

[Hekate]

23. lol -- sorry -- who knew advertisers could exaggerate?

Plus Hugh Hefner seemed very pleased, and who could argue with that well-aged voice of authority?

Onward, Hercules!

12. I just saw it today and I was going to post about it too.

I was alternately laughing and shaking my head. I found it absurd, you know, one of those WTF moments.

[SeattleGirl]

13. I know. I was only half paying attention to it, when suddenly I heard

"Viva Viagra", and I had the same reaction: :wtf:

[Archae]

14. I couldn't help but think this, seeing that ad on KO...

The ad-makers really pulled a boner with that ad. :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

15. ROFL!

:rofl:

16. Poor Elvis!

How much more indignity can he suffer in death? BTW, have you seen the Beatles "All You Need Is Luvs" diaper commercial?

[SeattleGirl]

17. No, thank goodness, I haven't seen that one!

The Viva Viagra one was more than enough for me!

18. Saw it last night for the first (and please the gods the last) time

My husband and I watched in jaw-dropping amazement and as one unit, turned to each other and said at almost the same time - "That sucked big time." Then we broke up laughing when we realized what we had said with respect to a Viagra commercial. Our 5 year old daughter stopped petting one of the dogs to look at us and demanded to know what was so funny. When we couldn't (well, ok, wouldn't) explain, she got upset thinking we were laughing at her.

22. Hey at least "Everybody gonna dance tonight..." went off.

Thank God for SMALL favors.

[windy252]

19. Unfortunately, yes.

:scared:

[AngryOldDem]

20. And they complain about the Trojan commercial?

Personally, I find the Viagra and Cialis commercials much more annoying.

[reyd reid reed]

24. I saw that commercial for the first (and hopefully last) time last night...

I sat there with my mouth hanging open. Oh. My. Fucking. God.

And people actually get PAID for these 'ideas'?

:wow:
