Commercials think we're all stupid...
Okay, I have been sitting on this for a while, but I finally feel like I need to get it off my chest.
There is an "Herbal Remedy" quit smoking commercial on the radio that says to try this:
Go into a drug store and ask for a aid for quitting smoking, the tell the person at the counter you want to take it home and use it, and then if, and only if you actyually quit smoking, then you will come back and pay for it. Here's what gets me:
"Now, if you do this, you would probably get arrested".
WHAT?
No, you wouldnt.
It would probably go like this:
Customer: I want to use this nicotine gum, but i dont want to pay for it unless it works.
Worker: No
See? No cops.
I also hate "banter" commercials, especially for TV shows that run on the radio...
"Hey, dont you like TV shows on FOX?"
"Yes I do, I sooo love House."
Echhh....
