Everyone has issues. You learn to live with them, deal with them, or end up behind bars or in a padded room ...

You just now figuring that out? We've known it for ages. Just keep him away from the Klondike bars, take it all with a grain of salt and he's not really a bad sort.
lol...
No insults intended Scott
I can understand it though, I hate commercials in general. It's like the Hollywood big shots think we're completely stupid. The biggest goal seems to be to create a commercial even more stupid than the last one. I can think of some products I won't even touch because of TV commercials. For over 30 years I refused to buy Charmin due to their incredibly ignorant "Mr Whiffle" commercials. If they think something that stupid is going to induce me to buy it, something that insulting to my intelligence, I won't touch it.
I think I saw the GC commercial, but only once and didn't pay attention to it. I only started watching TV again very recently, the only thing I used mine for in the past 30 years was watching VHS tapes. Didn't have or want an antenna even when it was useful...But lately moved back to Texas and they already have satellite hooked up, somewhere over 300 channels and I watch Mash and CSI and a few documentaries...that's it. NO reality TV at all, (people look at me like I just grew a third eye when I tell them I don't watch "Duck Dynasty"...and never will...and don't give a hoot if I look just like one of them. (the old guy I'm pretty sure...) I get "that look" all the time, now I know what's going on after being asked about it at least 75 times..."Hey you know you look just like..."
Now that I've checked out what's currently available on TV I think I can only say it reinforces what I've thought for most of my life. TV is the worst thing to happen to this world since Attillah the Hun. I kept hearing about "reality shows" so I watched a couple of them. I never lasted more than 5 minutes. Disgusting. I won't even think about watching any of the so called sit coms. Not funny, stupid, treat the audience like crap. Even the news must be watched with great suspicion, because the advertisers have total control over all programming, including news. TV gets all revenue from advertising. If their main advertiser doesn't like a story, the network can pull it or they lose all that money. You get 3 guesses what happens and the first 2 don't count...Movies...pure crap.
So that leaves extremely little worth watching on TV. Don't ask me why I happen to like CSI, but I usually do watch that, MASH is the only decent comedy ever produced (doesn't talk down to the audience), otherwise I have no interest in any of it except factual/scientific documentaries. I usually ignore commercials as much as possible, they just make me irritated.
I'll pay attention to the GC one if they air it again, I have little doubt Scott is right, all TV commercials are done by actors, which is why I ignore drug commercials. That guy standing there in a clean white doctor coat is just another actor reading his lines...and usually not doing a great job of it.
The other thing though, I figure that since commercials cost millions to produce and get on TV, if they have the money to produce a 30 second TV ad they certainly don't need any of mine.

You don't know me and that's fine by me.
If you want me to stop on by your house in Ohio, send me a pm and then you can talk in my face all you want. (I might even listen to what you say for 30 seconds or so.) LOL or not..
