Funny thing: Just this morning, I was skimming the headlines at People and thinking Jon Gosselin must surely be the seediest no-name D-bag “celebrity” on the American landscape.

But I was wrong, wasn’t I?

I want to call this tool a Federline for our age, but even that doesn’t quite work because K-Fed was, at least, a celebrity spouse. That is to say, Johnston’s actually a step down on the “accomplishment” scale from Kevin Federline. But of course, that’s the point of the ad: As you’ll see from the second clip, he’s not the only attractive imbecile who stumbled into his Z-list celebrity status to be featured in this campaign.

Tell me about it. I didn’t/wouldn’t listen when I was a teen, and my 19 y.o. son is paying me back for it.

I just offered them a free new slogan once this one fails.

Pistachios: because kids don’t need fathers.

I really should start charging for this sort of Advertising genius.

My family owns a nut growing company in California. All I can say about these assclowns is: Google “Paramount Farms Salmonella.”
