funny things in commercials

Postby Aaron Coffee » Mon Nov 15, 2010 6:40 pm

Anyone hear any funny lines in commercials that aren't meant to be funny? Two that I have heard are a commercial for battery tender, "Most people don't think about their batteries until they're dead." and for a dental office, "You will wish you had taken care of your smile years ago."
If I could shut my brain off, I could save myself alot of time, money and effort.

The old TV ads for Johnson outboard motors have brought a chuckle or two.

The distant lights!

You and your girl and your Johnson!
Good stuff... :thumbsup:

There is a KC area snack food company called Guy's. For years the their ads ended with "makers of Guy's chips and nuts." The dirty little mind I have was always provoked to snicker at that.

Some of the Allstate commercials with Mayhem crack me up. I love his cold-blooded, matter-of-fact delivery. My favorites are the teenage girl and the lawnmower.

I like the Southwest Airlines commercial where the baggage handlers spell out "Bags fly free". The commercial then switches to an elderly women viewing "Bags fly free" spelling. I'm still not sure whether or not that was intentional or just my twisted self.
