Not here either.

Looks to me like someone's career in advertising is nearly over.

Oh, I meant Marek.  But, yeah, I don't quite get the selling point of the commercial either.

Still, it's flying around the Internets, so maybe the person who thought it up is a genius.

And I totally don't get advertising.

There was an ad last year which featured a drummer in a gorilla suit. I thought it was moronitude of the first water, but everyone else seemed convinced it was an inspired outpouring of god-like eternal creative awesomeosity.

I had to interview the people who did the sound for the project, and they didn't change my opinion.

But - a hit! So what do I know?

I generally don't get advertising either.  Granted, some of that is because of the fact that I only really pay attention to the ones run during the Super Bowl, which don't really need to make sense (since everybody's just expecting crazy ads).

I think they run similar ads there (not sure if they're as good), but Apple has a really killer advertising team doing the "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials here.  They're brutal.

Doesn't every new relationship involve this sort of thing?

Maybe up there where you heathens live.

I wouldn't have anything to do with that sort of thing....

I guess DC's changed a lot since I lived there

Not DC's fault, for a change.  Just not really an option for me.
