* I'm from Canada, and here, we have a group called Raising the Roof, who are a charity group who help the homeless. One of the things they do to raise money is selling red toques (wool hats) and giving the money to help the homeless. So by weaing said hat, you are showing how caring you are to homeless people. That's good. BUT, apparintly, THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH, because they relesed these stupid ads where people get benfits from wearing it. The women at work who's your rival wears the same skirt and blouse? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdscfU23xk4) She'll DESTORY HER OWN CLOTHES OVER IT! Are you a dentist who's just preformed malpratice when you've removed someone's teeth at a simple check up? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaMxyWw2d5k) He won't sue you, because you are wearing that hat. WHAT THE HELL?!?!? Helping another human being isn't good enough, you need some sort of selfish asinine reason to be DECENT?!?! It's like something that Arthur from King of Queens would do....only much less funny. I talked about this with a friend, saying that it would have been more appropret to show a sad homeless person on the street beening helped onto his feet by someone wearing that toque, but he said that would be SAD and people want to feel happy. IT'S THE HOMELESS, THEY ARE LVING A SAD LIFE MORE OFTEN THEN NOT. THE POINT OF THIS IS TO HELP THEM OUT OF THAT SAD LIFE. And it's not like it can't work; I've seen ads for the Salvation Army that are kind of sad and serious about changing the life of people on the streets. And these are PSA ads, which are known for more often then not, being somewhat serious. I recall an anti-drinking and driving ad that always puts me to tears with a crying baby who's mother was killed in a car crash (I'm tearing up just thinking of it right now). It's sad, but it still works. So, anyone else agree this? I wanted to ask before I tried posting it on the main page.

* The commercial which bugs me the most right now is Joe Theismann's Super Beta Prostate. I get good use of my fast forward button when it airs. I love (sarcastically) the line of 'more romance in the bedroom'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8i9kVG7owA
