Hotels.com - Truly Funny Commercials

I saw this shampoo ad on the plane (thank you, JetBlue) and started laughing out loud. It was kind of embarrassing for the first minute. But whenever I thought about it for the rest of the flight, I just started laughing again. This was more embarrassing because I was flipping back and forth between Top Chef and American History X. You know whenever someone is laughing, you look at their screen... so I'm not sure what conclusions my seatmates came to about me. You have to admit this is funny shit...



They're all collected at thetalentjungle if you want to see a few others.

heAD Space

Manny: Ever wish you could defragment yer brain?

Plunge: Compact and repair storage

Manny: Unload bad sector

Plunge: Delete unwanted memories of commercials

Manny: Purge commercial memories

Plunge: Or I guess I could charge for that brain space. Like a banner or a billboard.

Manny: Sounds like a sweet business model when WE charge THEM to post ads in our minds.

Plunge: I best get paid for remembering some shit like Honeycombs commercials from Saturday morning cartoons in the 80's.

Manny: I’ll issue cease and desist letters if they don’t payfrit

Plunge: “Dear Sirs, We're going to stop remembering your shitty commercials… this is a takedown notice. I heretofore refuse to acknowledge that I know who Tony the Tiger is.

Manny: And I sure as shit won't use constructions like "Got Milk?"

Plunge: I didn't like saying "got x" anyway. Now if someone asks, “Got herpes?”
I be like “I'm sorry I don't know what you mean by that”

Plunge: Got ‘Got Milk’?

Manny: Oh yes - we used to carry that catch phrase - but we discontinued memory of that last year.
