did they just say what i think they said?
In the last couple of days I have seen two commercials that sound completely rauchy but aren't meant to be and I can't help but think that the ad agency dolts did it on purpose and are laughing themselves silly.
I wish I could find these commercials somewhere but I just couldn't hunt them down. The first commercial is for Degree deodorant but it looks like a cheezy infomercial for a product called "Snatch It".
Basically, the fake product is a glove with a magnet which enables you to pick up items from across the room so you never have to get up again. It is a stupid commercial to be sure. There is a point when the infomerical host puts on the glove and demonstrates how he uses the glove to "snatch" his keys off of a table across the room and his perky sidekick gleefully enthuses about his prowess at working the product successfully.
Her line made me turn my head and say, "WHA? Did she really just say that?" Then I thought, maybe it is just me. I mean, I know my mind is full of gutter trash and dirty words but doesn't everyone snigger when they hear something that sounds dirty but isn't really?
Anyway, after the demonstration the sideksick says, "Nice snatch, Bob!" Tell me that isn't funny. I laughed and snorted. Even Grumpy thought it was funny.
Then tonight as I was playing matchbox cars on the floor with the boys I half heard and partially saw a commercial on the tv for some sort of fancy Almonds. Anyway, the line that caught my attention and made me take notice was the following: "We select only the best Almonds and what results is an extraordinary nut sack."
Nice snatches and extraordinary nutsacks!
Oh, the hilarity!
