So, I don't watch TV anymore. Y'all know that I never watch TV anymore. I download everything so that it's commercial free and I can watch it when I want and however many times I want. I don't think I've watched a TV show on an actual TV for over a year now. Today, however, I did. And today? I was reintroduced to the mindnumbing dullness of commercials. I could feel my brain slowly leaking out my ears as some women discussed losing weight with her one-a-day pill. The brain-juice was slowly absorbed into the carpet as the Charmin bears danced around playing with toilet paper in the middle of a forest. ... I am never watching TV again.

Hey, I *like* those bears!

The song they sing really gets on my nerves... LESS IS MORE...

However the original concept of bears being on the toilet paper commercial is pretty clever. Does a bear shit in the woods?

My mom says it's 'offensive.'
I say my mom is 'a jackass.'

When you have nothing to do but watch TV all day, you tend to sing along with the songs on the commercials. Its like when Mike and I go to the movies and say the "thank you for watching the Twenty" script along with the actual woman saying it. I think it helps keep the brain juice in.

AIM hates me. Does it work for you?

It appears to be working for me. But I'm not talking to anyone right now, so it might just be faking it.

You know, you could just stuff the Charmin in your ears.... it would help in two ways - 1) Prevent you from hearing the mind-numbing commercials... and 2) Help stop the brain leakage.

It wouldn't stop brain leakage, it would absorb it, leaving you with earfuls of brain-soaked toilet paper. That would definitely block out the commercials.
