And now it's time for some juvenile humor

A couple months ago, Unk and I were watching TV and a commercial for some sort of snack food came on. At the end of the commercial, the camera focuses in on the packaging, and the voice-over announcer says, "... an extraodinary nutsack."

WHAT?!

We both look at either incredulously, pause a beat, and burst out laughing. "Extraodinary nutsack?" "Is that what you heard?" "Is that what YOU heard?"

Pause for a good 5 minutes of laughter. Seriously? Is that really what they said? The mind can hardly comprehend.

Time passes. We finally see the commercial again. While it's possible that after the first viewing, we realized that the tag line is, in fact, "an extraodinary nut snack," the fact is that you NEVER heard that extra "n", no matter how many times you listened to it, and oh LOL, it's just too funny to play during football season. It's so funny that ... you guessed it: they changed the line. Now it just says "an extraordinary snack." Which, of course, isn't funny at all, and today when we heard the edited version, we were finally able to focus on the actual brand name of the nuts. Which allowed me to Google it. Which allows me to share the original with you:

Evidently, we're not the only ones who noticed it either. When I Googled it, I got about 86,000 hits :)
