Will Cuss For Bud

August 26, 2007

In general, I find that beer commercials are deadly dull.  They aren’t funny and are usually belittleing to men.  That’s why they are on and off the air faster that their products are supposed to dissapear.  But when this commercial was brought to my attention by a very dear friend of mine, it was hard for me to grasp that it was a commercial intended to sell beer!!

It’s clever (well sort of), and funny, if not a tad bit unrealistic.  Everything that you could possibly want in a commercial.  What’s more, if you had quaffed several gallons of their product, it would seem even better!  But as you all know, drinking is bad for you.  And you should never, never do it.  Need I say more (cough Lindsay Lohan  cough, cough….)?

As many of my dear friends know, I am a huge fan of Chuck Norris jokes.  So, I will be posting a Chuck Norris joke every once in a while.  There is, however one thing I must say; I know that you have heard all of these jokes before (unless you live in Antarctica), but I do not care.  These jokes are always funny to me, and you had better get the same attitude.  So here is the first.

When Chuck Norris comes in from an all night drinking party, he doesn’t throw up.  He throws down.

There are millions of them.  And none of them have a life.  Otherwise they would not have a myspace page.  I myself don’t have one, and look where I am now.  There are two main things that I don’t like about it.  1. People are overly obsessive about it, and 2. It is a way for people to get murdered.  We will not talk about the second one, however.  So moving on to the obsessive people; I am going to begin with a brief anecdote.  A few days ago, I was hanging out with some friends at the local park, when my buddy walks over and says, “Hey will one of you go to the library and help me fix my Myspace?”  To this, my other friend replied, ” Sure, I have to go check my buddy requests, I haven’t checked since this morning.”  This illustrates my point better than Van Gogh could have, even with two ears.  It is not ok to be this obsessed with a non-human  web page.  It is just too much; too much pressure to join and too much pressure to keep up with requests, leaving too little time to interface with actual humans.  And now there is even more pressure to keep up with the constant influx of new options on your page that make your it look like it belongs to a D-list celebrity frantic for crowd approval.  So for now, I am withstanding the constant nagging for me to make a Myspace, so why don’t you try it too?  Maybe you will have some free time to, oh I don’t know, get a real life!
