Saw another puker this morning.
 
Same old "if you eat our cereal you'll get thin & sexy" bulloney.
 
Middle aged gal rummages thru her closet.
 
Middle aged gal takes out a pair of jeans, puts them on & zips them up.
 
They fit her perfectly.
 
Middle aged gal begins dancing hysterically.
 
Middle aged gal runs across the yard to neighbor's house & knocks on door.
 
Different middle aged gal answers door & asks "Are those last year's jeans?" as first middle aged gal shakes her butt then slaps it.
 
First middle aged gal gushes that the only reason they fit again is because she lost weight eating Multigrain Cheerios. Fails to mention the months of starvation, deprivation & misery that accompanied the one bowl of Multigrain Cheerios per day she was allowed to eat in order to lose said weight.
 
Second middle aged gal replies incredulously: "Multi grain....????!!!!" Shocked as if she'd never even heard the term before.
 
Image cuts to picture of bowl of cereal & the usual spiel that nobody even pays any attention to anymore including me, which is why I can't tell you what they said, but take my word for it, it's the same tired old yadda-yadda crap.
 
If & when the video of it appears on the internet, maybe I'll post it here.
 
If I remember.
 
It's really stupid.
 
Trust me.

And then the follow-up commercial shows the woman's rage when she realizes her husband has been stretching 'last year's jeans' so they would fit her fat @$$. LOL

How much weight did she gain since she bought those jeans last year that being able to fit into them again is cause for elation?  Five or ten pounds?

Apparently they work wonders on cellulite & sagging skin too.

And if she only lost 5-10 lbs in a whole year, then that isn't anything to jump for joy over.  I'd be pissed I didn't lose more in such a long time period.

After a while, jeans stretch out from their original fit. Last year's jeans still fit means her ass probably widened right along with them.

Do people really call clothing by year (outside of ultra-modern fashion clothing that goes out of style in a year)?  For example, I have a shirt that I got for Christmas last year.  Would I go around telling people it is 'last year's shirt'?  My pants I'm wearing now were bought in 2005, so are they 'my 2005s'?  Disapprove  I dunno, but calling a pair of jeans 'last year's jeans' is a stupid way to denote weight loss, and is also a stupid way to explain the garment itself.  That brings me to this:  Did she buy the jeans last year when they fit, gained 50 lbs, lost the weight, and now they fit again?  Or, did she purposefully buy jeans way too small as a goal to fit into them at a later date (now)?  I don't know about you, but I ONLY buy clothes that fit me at the time of purchase (well, a tad bit bigger to compensate for when they get washed and shrink.)  Maybe I'm in the minority.

Don't look at me.  Most of my clothes I'd have to pinpoint by decade, or simply "I got this shirt sometime back in the 1900s".

You're talking about women, DP7. That's why women have 30 pairs of shoes and men have maybe 3. They couldn't be caught out on the town wearing a pair from last year.Wink

LOL I wonder if the woman had to throw away 'last year's jeans' or only wear them in the house because they went out of fashion 365 (or less) days after she bought them (joke of course!)  

I completely understand wanting to only wear the latest fashions in regard to all forms of clothing (especially hairstyles and accessories like glasses/jewelery, etc.)  There's nothing wrong with that.  However, I still take issue with the whole 'model year' aspect in this ad like the jeans are a car, or music that would get stale and tired a few months after purchase.  But, for the most part, jeans just stay in fashion (of course, unless they are some trendy cut like skinny jeans or that bell-bottom-like style that was going on in the late 90s.)  I have some lightly worn (regular style) jeans from 1999 in my dresser.  They look identical to what is on the shelves today at Kohl's.  Would anyone REALLY know I was wearing 11-year-old clothes if I wore them today?  I mean, it is JEANS! LOLDisapprove

I made my most radical fashion change about ten years ago when I switched from jeans to cargo pants.
 
Oh, and I bought a pair of cargo shorts a while back---in plaid!!!  Shocked

I hope the black socks are knee high, rather than ankle high like the ones in the pic.
 
Ankle high black socks look almost cool in an odd sort of way.
 
Knee high black socks look so "old-fart dorky".
 
That's the way I prefer to envision you.
 
LOL

Actually, I just wear my own natural thigh-high hair sox.  Sometimes I smear a little glitter into the hair, but that's only when I go someplace and want to look my prettiest.
