You do?  Well I can only assume you&#039;re not very attractive then....Sorry, like you say, looks aren&#039;t everything.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve got a good sense of humor.  Your post wasn&#039;t funny.  We are inundated by celebrity culture, little rubber people running around saying and doing stupid things.  Movies, magazines, ect.  Our culture worships these morons.  But that isn&#039;t enough for you?  One commercial shows two simulated average people, and oh, the longing for some Justin Timberlake looking model just overwhelms you.  &lt;blockquote&gt;Well I for one would heartily endorse weeding out by any means necessary people who lack the humor gene.&lt;/blockquote&gt;  And who decides what&#039;s funny, chuckles?  You?  Always ready to eliminate or dismember those who disagree.  Predictable honora.  You put your foot in it and now rather than let a rotten joke lie, you make my point for me.  Should I bother with a rhetorical rejoinder on what should be done with stupid people?  Let it rest.  You were pwnd.</description>

I am old.  As in when dinosaurs roamed and the earth was cooling old.  These Snickersguys make Mr. Whipple look like Dick Powell (like I said, old...)</description>

		<description>A second after seeing where the advert was going I was on another channel. Didn&#039;t want to see 2 guys kissing. I voted with my remote. I don&#039;t care what it was mocking. Gone.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Yeah, too bad we all can’t be little Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt clones…course, that would make sleeping around kind of boring, but hey, at least we wouldn’t have to look at ugly people. You know what would be really cool..if we could figure out what children were going to be good looking and which ones ugly and then sort of…get rid of the ugly ones…create kind of a master race? That would make for some lovely commercials, huh?

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Remember when people in commercials were good looking? Oh those were the days…. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt; If that’s hateful then is it hateful to use the word “indefagitable?” 
smellthecoffee on February 8, 2007 at 12:44 AM&lt;/blockquote&gt;
That&#039;s funny!
It took me five episodes of Horatio Hornblower, but now I can say &lt;em&gt;indefatigable&lt;/em&gt; as if it was the most natural word in the world.  I&#039;m sure it won&#039;t take too much practice to get &lt;em&gt;indefagitable.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Boy, that&#039;s what I call defining &quot;hateful&quot; down.  If that&#039;s hateful then is it hateful to use the word &quot;indefagitable?&quot;  These people need some skinheads in their world to remind them what &quot;hateful&quot; really means.</description>

		<description>I like Snickers. I didn&#039;t like the commercial. I&#039;ll still eat Snickers. Commercials will not change a person&#039;s mind as to the brands they like. Unlike the fact that Pelosi and Kerry own Heinz, Delmonte, Starkist and Nine lives. That has changed a few minds.</description>

Heh.  Not only did I eat a Snickers, I bought one for a co-worker who was disturbed by the ad and left it on his desk.

He said he didn&#039;t know whether to consider it a kind gesture or sexual harassment.</description>

Oh,yeh, what do you know? All the Mars executives that paid for that ad know you do!  The ad company told them so.
So there!  Buy one! Buy ten! Eat them! And &lt;em&gt;like&lt;/em&gt; &#039;em!

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Less funny. And less effective at selling Snickers. The point is that they were so enthused by the Snickers bar that they didn’t even notice their impending awkward moment until after it happened.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, sorry, but seeing a dude eating a Snickers bar out of another dude&#039;s mouth doesn&#039;t make me want to buy a Snickers. All it does is make me wonder, if the guy on the right is drawn to Snickers bars like a moth to a flame, then why didn&#039;t he just dig some change out of his pocket and buy one himself... or steal the other guy&#039;s bar (with his &lt;strong&gt;hands&lt;/strong&gt;) before he started to eat it in the first place? And why did the guy on the left only seem really interested in eating it after someone else started eating it out of his mouth?</description>

<p>Well, sorry, but seeing a dude eating a Snickers bar out of another dude&#8217;s mouth doesn&#8217;t make me want to buy a Snickers. All it does is make me wonder, if the guy on the right is drawn to Snickers bars like a moth to a flame, then why didn&#8217;t he just dig some change out of his pocket and buy one himself&#8230; or steal the other guy&#8217;s bar (with his <strong>hands</strong>) before he started to eat it in the first place? And why did the guy on the left only seem really interested in eating it after someone else started eating it out of his mouth?</p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Did that commercial make you want to eat a SNICKERS bar?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The commercial didn&#039;t, but the controversy afterward made me think about Snickers and how good they are.

So yeah, I bought one.  And it was &lt;i&gt;good&lt;/i&gt;.</description>

		<description>Interestingly enough, half of the video descriptions provide a link back to... Americablog!  Who takes credit for getting the ads pulled in the first place

*&lt;em&gt;Shakes head&lt;/em&gt;*..

Worth noting is that a few extra clicks from those videos and you wind up with a video trailer by Spike Lee wondering what would happen &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuKgZpAnuBs&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&#039;if the South had won&lt;/a&gt;&#039;

Which seems really peculiar from Lee, considering he still seems to argue like the CSA &lt;em&gt;did&lt;/em&gt; win..</description>

		<description>Occam&#039;s Razor:
Simplest explanation:
What about the hygiene?  Two slovenly guys who don&#039;t look like they know how to brush their teeth, don&#039;t brush their hair, wearing last week&#039;s clothes working on a oily car with dirty hands and they throw &quot;food&quot; in the mix?
EEEwwww!
Who cares about &quot;homophobia&quot; psychoanalysis?  These guys are &lt;em&gt;gross!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>The only analysis necessary is:
Did that commercial make you want to eat a SNICKERS bar?  Just pick one up whilst standing at the checkout?  As in BUY one?  As in increasing company sales and thus evil profits?
Hellloooo Mars!  Hersheys&#039; bars still look good.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Because this day and age, we’re not even allowed to think that there’s anything wrong with two guys kissing without being labelled homophobic.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

They didn&#039;t think it.  They said it outright.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Here’s a question for you: do you think that this commercial would have been more funny or less funny if the same two guys reacted the same way after only &lt;em&gt;almost&lt;/em&gt; accidentally kissing?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Less funny.  And less effective at selling Snickers.  The point is that they were so enthused by the Snickers bar that they didn&#039;t even notice their impending awkward moment until after it happened.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Equally ridiculous are the people that protested to the Snickers’ people that the commercial was anti-homosexual and should be pulled.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Oh totally.</description>
