1-800-WE-ARE-NOT-18

tonight's wonderful array of commercials as us girls watched the beauty that is the TV show Blind Date:

- The "i got over herpes" drug ad complete with women walking in breezy sunset beach scene
- Anti-drug commercial (message: pot is bad, it makes you forget to pick up your sad younger brother from softball practice)
- 1-800-WE-ARE-18. Think young girls in underwear and football jersey cutoffs. I think this one speaks for itself.
- 4 ads for the new "Pulp Fictiony" movie "Be Cool" in the span of 45 min.
- some new Burger King sandwich that some bosom-y woman is eating on a swing while some african american cowboy is singing (what the?)

do ya think we're the wrong target audience? but do they really think juvenile guys our age (that might be redundant) watch blind date? mysteries like this and why hotels fold the ends of toilet paper into little triangles are things i shall continue to ponder...

RE: burger king commercial, that african american cowboy is the lead singer of hootie and the blowfish, and apparently (according to the Minimalist), the woman in the swing is brooke burke, previously known for some crappy cable travel show.

even MORE disturbing is the late-night commercial they like to show on MTV, showing a public bathroom stall with a couple inside, then cutting to the outside, when you hear grunting sounds from the aforementioned couple. thanks for the free porn, MTV. :|
