The Power of Advertising
Life in this house just never gets boring…
My husband and I, lazily watching TV recently…
TV Character: “that’s about as exciting as a douche commercial…blah blah blah…”
Me: “I don’t remember ever in my life seeing a douche commercial.”
Adam: “Sure you have. I’ve seen tons!”
Me: “WTF? Why would you even remember a douche commercial?”
Adam: “Um, DUH, Jenny. ‘Calgon, Take Me Away!’ You don’t remember that?? Gaah.”
Me: “Um, DUH, Adam… those were BATH SALT commercials. Weirdo. Did you think every time someone says ‘Calgon, take me away’ that they’re talking about douching?”
Adam: “I guess.”
Me: “Yeah, because that’s so relaxing. After a long hard day at work, I’m sure women all around the country go home thinking ‘Calgon Douche, Take Me Away!’… god you’re weird.”
Adam: “Women are an enigma. I have no idea if douching is relaxing or not. Women do weird things.”
Me: “NO ONE I KNOW DOUCHES!!!”
Hey, Calgon. Your commercials are apparently confusing to men. Revise, please.
