DisapproveDammitnow! I FINALLY found it and IT has been around too long beyond long enough.

Just how many things are wrong with this commercial?

  • How many people have a master bedroom IMMEDIATELY at the top of the stairs?
  • How many of those master bedrooms have DOUBLE DOORS?
  • Why does Dad have a coffee cup on his bed table, at night?
  • How many of us have bed headboards made out of nice white fireplace mantles, or how many of us push our beds right up on the fireplace?
  • Doesn't that whole set look like something set up for multiple commercials for different companies with minimal change? It could be Allstate, but push the bed and end tables aside and it could be summer remodel for Lowes's, or some paint company, especially if you roll in the bathroom vanity where the bed is, but with the double doors, push the stairs away and we have a home entry way.
  • We all KNOW that bed doesn't go with all the art hanging directly above them unless that kid is destined to be an 'only child because 'Mom & Dad' would have cuts and bruises from all those times 'Dad' was busy slamming 'Mom's' head into the headboard and having all that art fall on them time and time again. 
  • Has this kid told his parents that he is gay?

I dunno. Why did Americans think it was a good idea to hand the presidency to an unhinged, megalomaniacal lunatic last fall? There are no answers to these questions...

That kid is definitely a poof, Dad seems to be accessing him and coming up with the same conclusion, yet his Mum is the voice of acceptance. When he prances down the hall to his room is complete evidence.

When the Dad notices the kid, he's thinking "Even though I'm paying for everything, according to the secret paternity tests, I'm glad that little Censoredup isn't actually mine."  And no car for a month?  The kid will just go back to hitching rides with strangers like he's done for years...

Thought about it and figured I'd best take them down while I was ahead.
