[OT] New Pet Peeve
At this time of year it seems like very commercial is about a "year end"
close out, or "year end" savings. Well, these spokespeople really need diction lessons because I keep doing double takes wondering why anyone would want to go to a urine sale! ; -- Hugs, CatNipped See all my masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ |

What bugs me are the (local) folks who put their kids on television commercials. Hello, you might think they are cute but the rest of the world doesn't necessarily agree with you. A local furniture store turned over the family business to oldest son from said commercials... Mr. Flemming turned around and took it back after said son ran them practically into bankruptcy. No, not a good idea to count on your kids being "cute". Shirley Temple he wasn't. Best if you trust the family business to the cats. They don't mess around. G Jill |

G The commericals I loathe are those Welch's Juice commercials with the children who look and act like aliens. Their voices are like nails on a chalboard for me. Those kids are just plain scary! -L. |

Ohmygawd, *YES*. The latest little girl sounds like she's talking with a clothespin on her nose after having breathed helium! Actually, a lot of teenaged girls sound that way to me. Joyce OTOH I always liked the Oscar Mayer bologna commercials, singing the "bologna" song. Not gorgeous kids, and singing as if they just barely had memorized their one song line - real-type kids, of several races. To give the devil his due, those little girls with the grape juice do sound odd but are drop-dead beautiful girls and AFAIK have a long modeling career ahead of them. |

I think they look mildly deformed or alien or something. There's just something not quite *right*. -L. |
