so stupid I'm creepy
I swear sometimes my imagination runs away with me to the point I want to hide under the bed clutching a teddy bear. Sometimes what scares me is just leftovers from childhood, bumps in the night, glimpses of someone in the house from the corner of the eye that turns out to be your own reflection in the mirror. But other times . . .other times its my own stupidity that creeps me out.
I saw this commercial.
I saw it twice.
The first time I swore I was going to rant on my Lj.
The second time I realized my mistake.
It shows a high school football guy saying "I really want new running shoes bad. But I'm gonna wait."
A pretty girl running through the park. "I would be great to have new summer clothes right now but I'm waiting."
An attrctive young woman grocery shopping. "I'm waiting!"
A group shot of an entire girls little league baseball team in a chorus saying "We're all waiting!"
Thats it. Nothing else. Cut to the next comercial.
Maybe its just me. Maybe it was my upbringing. Maybe religion has been forced down my throat too many times. But I thought "OMG! The catholic church has just gone too far this time! Do they really think this is the way to promote abstinance?!?"
I feel like I should type this next piece in a whisper. A small humiliated whisper. I saw it again today. Same commercial. New tag line.
"You haven't shopped until you've shopped So and So's grand opening!"
Oh. Relived? Yes. Embarassed? Uh huh. To mortified to post it on LJ? Never.
