People all over the world...

It seems like the new coors light advertising campaign is meant to harness the whole, "refreshment from the heat" ideal, but it just seems to be like if what happened were true, there would be alot of problems.

Here's the setup:
There is this train. It is silver. Perhaps it's a bullet train, seeing as how coors is the silver bullet. Anyway, it's being loaded in the snow, because everyone knows that colorado is under a year-long perpetual state of snowfall.

Next we have a bunch of people sweating at a football game, at the beach, or perhaps in an oven. The people at all these places all looked shocked that the temperature is high. I mean, no air conditioning at the beach? i know i'm not going back there... that is unless...

In swoops, like a knight in silver train armor, the coors silver bullet train bringing with it, of course, snow and a fresh breath of cool air. Because as we've all learned from peanuts, weather follows you around.

Ok, so that's fine and dandy, but here's my problem with the situation. If the commercial were true, all those people at the beach, and at the football stadium, etc... would get freaking pneumonia. And that's the extra bad kind, the kind with the "p" in the front. Ooh, and also pfrostbite. I mean, everyone is wearing a bathing suit (which, despite what you're thinking, no one is actually bathing in), or wearing tank tops (which also by the way, don't fit tanks of any size), and all of a sudden, the chill of the rocky mountains kicks in? Yeah, they're all headed for some amputations. That's a cold... dose of reality my friend.

Mitch Hedberg's QotD:
I saw on HBO they were advertising a boxing match by saying "It's a fight to the finish." That's a good place to end.
