The other thread about this topic regarding movies got me thinking about these….figured there should be quite a few good examples of this….

Here's a class if one that I remember quite fondly but likely wouldn't get made today….



And got to include the commercials that ironically started the famous Kermit the Frog….



Any others?

Ironically, the first TV commercial is pretty timeless.

Me too! I almost got 100% of the words after not hearing it in years.

Do you remember the Frito Bandito pencil erasers that came as a prize in the snack size Fritos packages? You'd put them on the end of your pencil.

Oh wow, that opening line. This came out just before AIDS really blew up, was already a thing for sure by then though.

Such cringe.

My brain is having a hard time reconciling there were dumb asses who are smart enough to get on a computer and go to this website, but dumb enough to actually think they are getting matched with an ideal college.

This site and service is still up. For a 20+ year white collar worker such as myself, the service recommends The Chicago School.

For a 19 year old named "Lakesha Franklin" living in inner city Houston with "some high school" completed and interested in a vocational education, this janky ass service has no matches.

I remember those. I think there was a rap version too.

The way they promoted this poison as healthy should be criminal.

"Secret deodorant…. Strong enough for a man, but made for a woman…"

You know, since they're weaker than us and neither strong nor brave.

For Folgers, it has to be the brother sister commercial that made everyone just a little uncomfortable.

My friend wrote a short story based on that commercial. Its very NSFW and it's a free download on her website along with her other romance books

I can't watch a coffee commercial without thinking of the Chris Farley sketch where they switched his coffee:
