Commercial logic?

Well, the commercials are at it yet again...

In one of the newest commercials for polaroid (apparently they make stuff that doesn't require shaking), there is a guy sitting, watching his tv, when all of a sudden, without his prior consent, the channel changes from sports to figure skating. He then proceeds to change it back to the more manly sports channel, when he looks over and sees a girl in the building next door watching the figure skating...

Through his unbelievable logic, he deduces that she has changed his channel, perhaps unknowingly, but still, she's watching the exact...same..thing... Well, it goes back and forth, changing channels about 20 more times (by which point i am already down on the floor, in the fetal position, foaming at the mouth), when he finally looks over to find that the girl is gone. He looks over, and sees a, er... fruity guy in the apartment next to the girl's apartment, holding his remote... (hopefully that's what that was), and smiling er... gayly..

The moral of the commercial? I have no freaking clue. But their slogan is something to the effect of "have fun."

You know what? My idea of having fun isn't when other people can randomly change the channels on my tv. I mean, it's never going to be a problem, because polaroid would be hard pressed to sell more than one of these tvs to more than one person in the same time zone, but if that were the case, that by itself would make me never want to buy one.

I would write more, but i'm watching tv, and someone keeps changing it to porn... gotta figure out what the hell is going on...



Mitch Hedberg's QotD:

There was a product on late night TV that you could attach to your garden hose - "You can water your hard-to-reach plants with this." Who would make their plants hard to reach? That seems so very mean. I know you need water, but I'm going to make you hard to reach. Hopefully they will invent a device so that I can water you before you shrivel and die. "Think like a cactus!"
