Just saw this one earlier this evening & I was speechless.
 
I honestly don't know how to describe it.
 
Weird? Creepy? Gross? Disturbing? Sickening? Stupid? Just plain YUCK?
 
You decide....
 
 
One thing I do know.... this computer animation business is getting to be a bit much. Stern Smile
 
Also.... the kid looks like a former high school friend of mine's dad.

The f*** *in dramatic voice* "Just for Men...Nothing drives women crazy like a baby's face combined with a rugged beard, talk about the best of both worlds"

I like how the baby's head is on a grown body....who are they trying to advertise this to? I saw no men other than the security guard.

Good point there!

I'm not really familiar with Just For Men commercials, but if a bearded baby living the harem life works, they must be doing something right

On top of the creepiness why did they feel the need to make him with a Hobbit sized body? A baby head, with a child body and a man's beard. Maybe a baby with a beard on a man body, while stupid, would still make more sense. Stupid

Just another lazy fad routine. It goes something like this:

STEP 1) Make baby talk like an adult during commercial
STEP 2) ???
STEP 3) PROFIT

I wish I had picture of one of my old high school best friends' dad.
 
Same bald head, same goatee, same color.
 
The kid looks almost just like him.
 
I haven't seen the guy I was friends with for many years & his dad passed away a few years ago, but I'll bet that when he sees that ad he'll think "Oh sh*t, that kid looks almost exactly like my dad!!!"

When I first saw it I could of sworn it was a E*Trade ad because that's the only logical explanation to have a (bearded) baby in an ad to me. I was completely surprised it was a Just For Men ad. Wacko

For some reason they've been airing this P.O.S. again, and much too frequently for me to stomach Angry

The bearded baby is an annoying POS. They want everyone to think that is a Porshe the happy couple fly off in, I say its a fkin Kharmen Gia. And midget man would not be able to reach the pedals, no matter how cool his beard looks, or know what to do with the hot blond.

Correct it is not a "Porshe". It is a Porsche 356 produced from 1948 to 1965.

Ok sarge, you got me. How could you tell?  The Porsche is fine sports car.  But I am fond of the old american muscle.

A friend of mine had 3 Porsche 356s. I recognized the front and rear views. The side view looks enough like a Karman Ghia that I understand why you thought it might be one. I have never owned a Porsche or any other German car. I have owned more than a fair share of American muscle. Hard to beat a "hot" V8 and rear wheel drive!

While there is nothing lewd or lascivious about this,  it just somehow seems perverted.  I don't like it.
