Oddly Uninspired & Unimaginative Superbowl Commercials

[raj]

On the whole the commercials were sub-par.  I didn't like the fart ad, but I generally don't like fart jokes.

I missed the tit flash, too busy channel flipping, there was too much rap in the halftime show.  Of course the photos are now all over the web.  Cheap stunt.
The game was good, too bad I was sick as a dog all day, even now I'm just recovering.  Tthank god for sick time.

MTV should get back to its roots:  obnoxious twenty-something game shows and the Real World.

[Eirik]

"A New England linebacker FLATTENED him as he ran by, chased by security."

Whoa!  I didn't know that.  Man, I bet that guy's agent tore him a new one after the game.  You know what kind of litigation danger he put himself in?

[Velvet Brotha]

Sorry to hear that you were sick, raj. Hope you're doing better... How could you not like fart jokes? They're the best. ; ) "I'm an eight year old trapped in a man's body." Geez... I hope I'm not Michael Jackson.

Apparently the streaker is some British guy who has streaked several other sporting events and is sponsored by an online gambling company.  I think I saw him interviewed on Real Sports sometime last year.

Oh and another thing....

If I see one more Dodge commercial where they say the word HEMI again as if it's some sort of male rite of passage I'm gonna freakin' SCREAM!!!!!!
Lately with truck commercials, it's almost like guys comparing dick size or something to see who's got the bigger one.

I hate that damn word!  
I want to eradicate the word HEMI from all existence!
It's been rammed down my throat with such unrelenting force by commercial after commercial, I just hate it now

And if I see another commercial about something having low CARBS, I will go on a shooting spree!

And I'll bet 90% +  guys don't even know what a Hemi is, which makes it REALLY aggravating.

>I've been trying to get my roommates to make copies of the video (theyt had it
>taping) of Justin Timber(why can't they find him decomposing in the bottom of a)
>lake exposing Janet "Nearly As Much A Cyborg As Cher" Jackson's breast.

Just go to alt.binaries.multimedia.nude.celebrities and download a copy. You have your choice of mpeg, avi, normal and HD copies.

>They had mention something about Janet Jacksons shirt being ripped off by
>someone else during the superbowl. That has got to be so embarrassing for her.

I don't watch sports, but I have seen this; She was wearing a black leather outfit with detachable bra cups. JT reached across, grabbed ahold of the right breast covering and yanked it off.

She was wearing star-shaped pasties, so you know it had to be on purpose.  

That's just tasteless.  

Of course, that's what the NFL gets for letting MTV do the halftime entertainment.

"It's been rammed down my throat with such unrelenting force by commercial after commercial, I just hate it now"


Might one even say, with HEMI powered force?

Thanks Velvet Brotha,  I am feeling better now.  Actually able to eat more than soup.

As for fart jokes, they just don't tickle my funny bone, as a rule.  Blazing Saddles excepted.

[Velvet Brotha]

Glad to hear that you're doing better raj. The flu is helluva nasty this year.

I pitty the foo that don't like a good fart joke. ; )

It's all good my man. You don't have to be sick in the head like the rest of us. We still accept you for who you are.

[raj]

It turns out there was a bit of food poisoning here at work.  One fellow was retiring, so there was a salad luncheon where everybody brings an ingredient (mine's a new bottle of dressing.)  A bunch of us got sick at the same time.  That'll teach me to eat my veggies.

And more on Janet's boob decoration.  Turns out it is a Borg implant:

for a comparison.  Michael, Latoya, now Janet.

>She was wearing star-shaped pasties, so you know it had to be on purpose.

No, it was a sunburst nipple decoration  held on by a nipple piercing.

[Grumpy Guy]

Oh - is that what it was?

Huh.  So, ummm...  How could you tell?

Regardless, still tasteless, still expected from MTV.
