Yeah Right!

There is this commercial airing in HK now. It goes something like this.

Dude and Babe are in a park
Dude busts out some fast food burgers
Dude also busts out some fast food drinks
Dude and Babe sit down
Dude takes out a pair of head phones
Dude and Babe share the earphones, one per person
Music comes in
Dude proceeds to "activate" the phone
Phone lights up the table like a candle
The light reveals this message...
Happy Anniversary

Babe is OK with this!

Are you stink'n kidding me! That is perhaps the most unrealistic commercial ever! It is more fake than a Victoria Secret commercial...and that's saying a lot. Here is how it would go in real life.

Dude and Babe are in a park
Dude busts out some fast food burgers
Babe laughs and asks "are you serious?"
Dude begins to sweat bullets and answers "Yes..?"
Babe leaves that broke butt Dude in the Park...
With his phone and both ear phones!
Game Over. Happy Anniversary my butt!

This past Saturday at church Janice, one of the pastors, was talking about intimacy with God. While she was speaking I had this great illustration that I believe really defines how many, if not most, of us approach God. That will come tomorrow. I just wanted to wet your appetite with that little commercial which really illustrates intimacy quite well (seriously...and sarcastically)...and I didn't want to write a lot! Honesty is the best policy you know!

Here is the title of tomorrow's blog.

The Bowling Alley Condom Dispenser (it was the illustration I got...give me a break!)


Dumb Marketing!
Unless it is aimed at broke butt guys
