Sometimes he writes them down...

While they WILL get OB-GYN recommendations from each other, it is our unanimous opinion that no woman would ever a) talk about odor with each other (unless it was to gently suggest that she do something about the "funk"), b) ask each other about the comfort/stickiness factor -- FORGET about asking random strangers, or MOST IMPORTANTLY c) DO IT IN THE AISLE OF A GROCERY STORE!!!! This ad was OBVIOUSLY created by some stupid man who didn't have sisters to enlighten him at an early age, a long term relationship with a woman, or just plain common sense. DUGH! Also, as someone who takes the subway on a regular basis, do you know the amount of germs that you pick up just by using the handrails? (Shudder! EWWW) I don't care how long the opening is on my handy new portable dental care product, it's not going to happen. NO WAY! That's what toothbrushes are for. Also, if you start dancing and singing in the NY subways, you are either a tourist, a struggling musician, insane or some combo of the above that is to be avoided and ignored AT ALL COSTS.

Carl's Jr. has done a great job of targeting their correct demographic: 18-35 year old males (in other word, me). The subtleties of his expressions, mixed with the gang-esque signs he was throwing down, made for darned-funny advertising that works (for me, anyway). I must, distastefully, disagree.

Do they really think that this is going to make me want to buy their hamburger? Did some ad guy come up with that at three in the morning? Seriously this little kid tugging on his amibilical cord has shades of the Little Assasin by Ray Bradbury. It is the most tasteless thing on the air waves today.
