Is this the commercial that caused all the Libyan, Egyptian, Syrian, Iraqi and worldwide jihad?

The best commercial of all time wasn't a real commercial, but it was a "Honeymooners" sketch. "The Chef of the Future".

"Can It Core A Apple?"

Hands down, my favorite commercial is the Audi Green Police commercial. It subversively pokes fun at the environmental movement. I giggle every time I watch it. Plus, I love that Cheap Trick spoofs their hit single "Dream Police" by singing the accompanying "Green Police" music track.

Yahoo link for Green Police

Thought you said you were going to stop!

If you’re going to make nasty assumptions, you should man-up and admit it.

I have two favorites.

The first is a commercial for toilet paper:

While the second is more a public service annoucement than a commercial: (Note: it gets loud, so turn your speakers down a little)

Neither one is made in the US, so what does that say about the quality of our commercials?

You do realize that you are being aggressive? You are probably suffering from passive aggression in fact. Despite knowing what you did, and knowing that slinking off quietly is the right thing to do, you just can’t resist keeping the discourse open.

You really shouldn’t bring God into your little swirl of insanity.

You will respond again....

I liked the “Byyyyyyyyyyy....Mennon”. Seinfeld loved it too and they put it in a great episode where George is going to get dumped by his current girlfriend and Kramer says to come up with a way to stick his name in her mind.

He leaves and then says “Coooooooooooooo...Stanza” and she couldn’t forget!

It’s funny.

Feeling aggressive? Using God’s name to further your spew? Shame. I hope you go to church, and aren’t just using religion to make appearances.

You will reply, and you will try to drag God down with you.

Using God as a crutch? Perhaps you should acknowledge your behavior and keep your dirt out of church.
