  • "Feed The Warrior"

    One of the better commercials I've seen for a while. The hunter in the background is classic.

    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

    Lots of American adverts just....aren't that good. Now a gorilla playing the drums. That'll make me buy chocolate any day.
    Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
    -Richard Dawkins

      This is definitely American humor. I agree.

            That advert just didn't work on me. Instead I went out and bought a gorilla and a drumkit...

                      Well maybe just your sense of humour then (and yes, it does have a 'u' in it )

                            video embedded by Dauphin. The one you've embedded is OK, DanS, but I didn't find it laugh out loudable.

                            I'm Canadian, but my heritage is more British than American so...

                              If at first you don't succeed, take the bloody hint and give up.
