Author Topic: People are apparently handicapped at dispensing toothpaste, among other things  (Read 2022 times)

My favorite commercials are the ones that start out, "Are you tired of this happening to you?" while it shows a bunch of totally easy tasks being forgeted up by people who are obviously not supposed to be out of the house. Seriously, I know it's a marketing technique, but it's a bad one.

Here's an example, for a toothpaste dispenser: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=049pGpLdp9Y&feature=related

Discuss commercials that make incredibly easy tasks look incredibly hard.

The begining of that comercial looks really disturbing

VACUUM FORCE TECHNOLOGY?
NO loving WAY. They're packing space-age stuff.


Dishwashing ones.
When you use "normal" dishwashing liquid nothing comes off dishes, but when you use that "super" dishwashing liquid everything comes off dishes with a single touch.

When I saw this for the first time on television, I nearly pissed my pants.

Any infomercial grossly exaggerates the lack of intelligence the normal consumer has.

Any simple task is horribly difficult, from changing a tire to cutting a piece of bread from the loaf. But wait! We have a thing that will allow you to be lazy instead of learning how to do something properly and all it will cost is your next paycheck! Wooohooo! We rip you off making you think we're doing you a great service. Go profit margin go!

I don't know what kind of people live in such homes as shown in before using that hypersuperduper chemical bomb.
Oven's covered with some strange brown thing and bathroom walls covered with stuff and so on.

To be a great inventor you have to be extremely lazy. Take the spatula that has a blade on the side.

You Squeeze, you roll, you Press...

Gah, I don't know what to post!

I love commercials they make me laugh.
