What bothers me more than the whole creepy flight attending stalking is, the kid kicking the seat and the faint child crying in the background. NEVER do an ad with kids who are crying or throwing tantrums. Unless you're selling diapers or condoms, then I could see. This is one of my pet peeves.

The Vice Principal at my Elementary school had a paddle with holes in it...less wind resistance.
If kids came home with welts like that today, the lawsuits would be worse than all of the hot female teachers screwing young students.

I had a female teacher before I moved to my new school. Now I have a male one. A bit more serious than the comedic female one, but still comedic.

E*Trade is getting a little too outrageous here. I have to admit, I laughed when the guy jumped off the back of his own boat.

I hate this one too. The flight attendant smiles at him, closes the door on him, shows her anger/annoyance, and then immediately goes back to being phoney with a huge grin. The people in the first class seating look like huge assholes. So what is the message, what are they selling? You too can be a rich asshole and enjoy being catered to by phoney flight attendants?

There's only thing to do when the 'brat attack' occurs: be a man and look back at the brat and his parents and ask them in a loud stern manner, "Is he really yours? If so, would you please contain your little spermmistake before I have to slap him into next Tuesday and toss him out the emergency exit?!"

This still cracks me up, and is on quite often. The long FLYYYYYYYYY me to the moon never fails to wake me from a light slumber.

I tried to find the actual song they are using here.
The lyrics are clever but the commercial is not...I've owned a couple of boats big enough to actually sleep on. A list of the mistakes they made.
1- You can be arrested for almost running over a wave boarder! 2- "Top speed, 50 knots". There is no way that that boat ship can go that fast! 3- "A champaign and models popourie"? I believe that part. 4- "On my yacht made of Cuban mahogany"? Yes, they did make boats out of this exotic wood when I was a kid. They may still use it for interior trim...This is a fiberglass boat ship!
