Look at me! I'm a size 2!

**Martha** · 03-02-2007, 06:50 PM

My nomination for the worst commercials ever: those for NutriSytem. One woman says: "Look at me I'm a size 2, hahaha." Another woman refers to her "smoking hot body." A man says his wife doesn't find him "as digusting anymore.:

Wtf?

I am ready for a break from TV. Back to novels.

End rant.

Pretty weird. Gotta get to San Antonio one of these days and see what this wahooguy is all about.

Martha - I'm so glad you brought up this topic.

I can't stand Nutri System commercials!

How about the chick who said "I was a size 10 and now I'm a 2!" Nothing like perpetuating eating disorders. Also the male version of the commercials are a crack up. The message for men seems to come across as "eat our rib stickin meals and get laid!". :P

Oh but theeee best commercial is Maxyderm male enhancer which depicts the old fart taking the young dancing babe out of the bar for a roll in the hay.

lazygood4nothinbum · 03-02-2007, 07:08 PM

how about grecian formula (or some similar shoe polish) advertising: "don't let the grey hide the real you."

I hate all the diet program commericals and I hate all the wrinkle cream ads too, they never show someone that is old enough to have wrinkles or lines in the commercials.

Man, I gotta watch more TV...

Here's a picture from the Maxiderm Male Enhancer site - WTF

The advertising industry is nuts.

Yeah, Outtahere, I agree with you on the wrinkle creams. Although, Diane Keaton seems to think that calcium in her facial cream will make her skin "stronger".

shiny · 03-02-2007, 07:15 PM

I think the most annoying thing about that commercial is how she says it. I'm a size teew. Plus, she doesn't look like size 2 to me, I think the new size 2 is what size 6 used to be.

Martha, when are you going to Mexico - I'm ready to hear reports about it!

If she's having to look that closely, he must really have needed a remedy!

You sure that's not from the wrinkle cream site?

Better hurry if you want to see the big mulch fire. Looks like they will finally have it out by next week...only burned for 2 1/2 months. :P

She's wearing his underwear. It goes to reason he's wearing hers.

While deleting spam from my email the other day I saw a subject line introducing new Cialis soft tabs. Is it a new form or a cure for priapism?

ROFLMAO. That was my thought, exactly. All she needs is a set of binoculars.

Sounds like the advertising industry is hitting a raw nerve with the large, wrinkled, gray-haired, small-Johnsoned demographic.
