I still haven't come up with what I consider the best commercial of the year, and since none of you, save one or two, every write to me me I have no recommendations. I am sure this will inspire a certain Bostonian to make a suggestion. There are lots of commercials I detest, of course. Citi banks accessories commercial with that hideous screaming lyric, "Someone left the gate open." is my most hated, followed closely by that no-talent creep who does the credit report commercials. I can't complain about the technological commercials since I don't understand half of them. I dislike most Xfinity commercials and even though I have Comcast, I don't really know how it differs from Xfiniti. Almost all car commercials are exactly the same. Take a silver car. Build some kind of meaningless concept around it. Tell the consumer absolutely nothing about the product and you're done. Beer commercials are mostly built around male losers who continually ridicule or betray their best friends in their desperate attempt to have sex with a beautiful girl who has nothing but contempt for them. There are not interesting soda ads like those classics of the past. Movie ads are often exciting because they usually usual thrilling music which is never actually in the film. Of course the political commercials are hilarious this year since they're mostly elephants battling elephants. The attacks on Obama are the most humorous since they have absolutely no relation to the brilliant, handsome, charming, hard-working, all-American president of the very same name. Who cares if it's Gingrich or Romney, they're both amoral and dickless? And speaking of impotency, commercials for Viagra, Cialis and that other one are fun if only to see what new phallic symbol they will come up with before they plop the couple incongruously down in a separate bathtubs (can anyone explain that?) . So, you see I'm stymied, but I'd hate to have you kindly come to my blog and find nothing new, so I'll make a point adding something at least every other day. But I do wish you'd send me a note of praise, complaint, anything I an respond to, Even if it's just complaining about my ending a sentence with a preposition.
