The other night I was watching actual TV and not DVR or Blakes server and a few commercials came on that got me scratching my mind and then got me saying retarded, typical stuff.

So lets put it in perspective here. Imagine it is about 11 at night, you are sitting in the living room watching the "I dream of Jeanie" marathon on T.V. and the topic of conversation for the night has been horror making out stories, although the topic has died down a little. Then after a weird commercial about diabetes comes on you see this commercial:

This is the part where we all looked at each other speechless and then bust up laughing. We actually paused the show because we were laughing so hard. Yes I know SNL already did a spoof on it and yes the pretty much pointed out what we were all thinking.

So here my roomates and I are sitting, watching a wholesome old school tv show when our minds are thrown back into the gutter.
First can I just say... what was the thought process on marketing this product? Second that thing is HORRIBLE for your muscles. I am sorry when it comes to a real workout that is good and won't do more damage...you got to do traditional methods. Sorry you can't fast track your body composition.

Anyways we finally hit play again after we controlled our laughter and made fun of the product. We however didn't expect this next commercial:

Now tell me... what is the thought that goes through your head...??? Maybe, "Hmm I kinda want a york peppermint patty." or " She has really blue eyes."
Yeah those thoughts didn't really cross my mind. Well the wanting a peppermint patty did but not the way I just said it. The thought that crossed my mind...and some how escaped my lips before I could stop it was, "Shoot, who needs a guy when a york peppermint patty does that to you."
I mean I am not an expert by any means. Frankly everything I know about that kind of stuff is a product of what I have been told and my good ol imagination. I bet if Figment the Dragon knew that tapping into my imagination would lead to that, he might have quit his job.
Anyways, I have been thinking about those two commercials and laughing a lot this week. Why shouldn't others enjoy it too. Welcome to my mind.

P.S Just so you know, there was about a 30 minute conversation that happened after my out burst about the Peppermint Patty, but I thought I would let your own mind create the jokes.
