Product Placement

There is a commercial that keeps playing that annoys the heck out of me for many reasons.

-First of all, it's long. If it was at least an interesting commercial it would be ok. It's not.

-Second of all, the product (some sort of skin renewal face mask) is just plain creepy. Evidence below:
-Third, part of the commercial involves a man watching a hot bikini babe on tv and his girlfriend trying to get his attention. He smacks her hand away and keeps his eyes glued to the tv. If this were to happen, you should be renewing your boyfriend, not renewing your skin.

-Fourth and MOST ANNOYING, the commercial repeatedly tries to convince viewers that this mask is super easy to put on (unlike The Leading Competitor
). The way that the commercial does this is by showing a clip of a woman taking the mask off and playing it in REVERSE. It is so painfully obvious that the video is in reverse. Do people watching this commercial actually believe what they see? I wish I could find a clip of this commercial online to show you all.

Ah well. I know this post has nothing to do with me, but I just had to share.
