Thoughts

Think with your dip stick, Jimmy! A catch phrase used by a fellow with a fake Scottish accent in a commercial for an automotive product. I call it an "automotive product", I think it must be an engine oil, but the commercial is so annoying. I remember the phrase, I remember the dude whacking other dudes with a dip stick, but I don't remember the name of the product. So... they annoy me with this stupid commercial with a phrase that sticks in my head, but the name of the brand they want me to buy does not. I would say that advertising campaign is a failure. So why don't they just go ahead and take it off the airwaves so I don't have to see it or hear it again? EVER.
Update
For those of you who want to see it: its a Castrol commercial. I looked it up... so you don't have to.


John McCain: is apparently showing his true colors now that he's too old to ever run for President again. Mr. Bi-partisan has turned into Dr. NO! Did any of you catch his production on the Senate floor today? It was rather stilted. Sort of an act. A very badly played act. I didn't believe for a minute that he was really as outraged as the words he spoke would have me believe. He even slapped his hand down on the table, but that theatrical display was totally miss-timed. It seemed like he was performing an SNL skit that he hadn't even bothered to read first and couldn't care less if he pulled off. I really think he needs to step down and get his health attended to. His appearance and his actions are very reminiscent of someone who has suffered a stroke. I wonder....
You can find his performance here, on cspan dot org. Sen. McCain appears about 20 minutes into the video. Enjoy.

This whole Rush Limbaugh brouhaha would be hilarious if it wasn't so serious, so dangerous, and so sad. It is hilarious to watch these so-called Republican leaders and big wigs stretch their wings and soar out above all the hateful, racist, sexist, holier-than-thou rhetoric of that disgusting pig. And then count the minutes until they come crawling back on their hands and knees to kiss his ring, to beg and plead for his forgiveness. Which, of course, he deigns to grant them after they've grovelled at his putrid, stinking feet sufficiently. What idiots! These people who worship Rush, who call themselves "dittoheads". WTF!!! They are proud that they don't think for themselves. They think its cool to just nod their stupid heads and agree with anything and everything that foul, slimy, oozing pustule of corruption says. And they DARE to call themselves Americans? Dare to call themselves Patriots? They dare to call themselves Christians? What kind of Christian would sow dissension and hate or support it? They can call that Christianity if they want to, but it isn't anything like the Christians I was raised with or respect. And it's serious business. These folks don't seem to understand that this bloated, disgusting, spittle spewing piece of filth is just using them. The more sheep he can get to follow him the more money he makes. And he understand their limited intelligence; their need; their desire to belong to a herd. And he plays on their fears and their twisted reasoning to lead them around by the nose. That reeking mound of maggot crawling filth has them all fooled. He's poisoned his followers and turned them into evil minded robotic, brain dead, little trolls. That is a sad thing. That is not American. It is not not NOT American at all to say you hope the President of the United States of America fails. FAILS! That corpulent, morally diseased bastard hopes our President FAILS!!! And the repugnicant party "dittoheads" are still scared to stand up to this creep and tell him where to get off! Why is his little "speech" not "incitement to treason"? Why is he not on the no fly list or in some left-over Bushian gulag in Rhodesia being water-boarded? I mean... that is his picture of a perfect America, isn't it? He thought Bush was the perfect President and that President Obama is going to ruin this country. Anyway... enough. I'll get off my soapbox now. Glad to get that off my chest. Thank you.

I don't know if I've seen that Castrol Oil ad before, it's like Groundskeeper Willie come to life there. I agree that it's annoying when an advertising campaign won't die, I can't stand those dollar bills with eyes from the Geico commercials.

I agree Holly...if our president fails where does that leave the country. That kind of talk purely shows their ignorance.

Now here is another one ...this from my best friend. Michelle Obama does not present the proper image for a first lady. I knew I should not have asked why but I did. Apparently it is inappropriate to wear sleeveless after a certain age. Have you ever heard such thing. Of course just to prove a point I will have to go sleeveless this summer. Of course I would look better if I had Mrs. Obama's arms.

Hi Mr. Mike! Thanks for checking in. You are right, those Geico commercials are annoying. And slightly creepy, as well.

Pam... um... did your friend mention what age, exactly, is it that you become too old to go sleeveless? If Michelle Obama is that "age" I must be getting close, too. Of course, I don't wear sleeveless shirts/dresses cause my arms are no where near as nice looking as her's, but... she is setting a new trend, isn't she? Maybe I should try it out on myself, ya think?

She did tell me I was definitely too old so I guess I will be wearing sleeveless this morning. You know there was an article in our paper this morning about the sleeveless dress she wore to the Presidents address to Congress. I though I was raised by a very proper Mom and I don't ever remember her teaching me that sleeveless was inappropriate.

Guess I will have to crawl out from under my rock and see what all I am doing that is deemed inappropriate by others. Oh yes...my hair is too long.

tehehe... mine is too, and I like it that way. :)

I have a feeling that our new First Lady is going to make a lot of folks rethink their views on what is appropriate or not. And I think its about time, too.

Judy said...

Amen! I am right there with you. I can't stand the way the Republicans are acting. It makes me sick to see grown men act like total idiots and not stand behind the new president. I don't like those Geico commercials either. I would like to step on that little green monster.

You heard my rant a while back about Rush Limbaugh. He makes Americans look ridiculously stupid. I wish he'd just keep his mouth shut. Don't see that happening any time soon...sigh...

P.S. Hey, have you moved in yet. ;) Nah, I know it's too soon but I bet you're so excited!!!
