I remember many a product endorsement from my youth. "Momma's got the magic of Clorox 2." "Raise your hand if you're Sure!" "Please, don't squeeze the Charmin." "I am stuck on Band Aid brand cos Band Aid's stuck on me." Grammatically bad in some cases, ""Kids love Kix for what Kix has got. Moms love Kix for what Kix has not." But most of the commercials I remember from back then were fun and campy, laughable and sing-along-able.
I weep for today's youth. Where are the fond remembrances from commercials for Viagra, ED, prevention of pneumococcal pneumonia, and ads for medications of every kind, along with their litany of potential side effects?

Not sure what's sadder -- that they can't spell shirts or that $1.89 (rather, I 89) dry cleaning is all it takes to make a Wednes... -
While crafting with buttons, the madness slowly began to creep in. They're mocking me. Mocking me, I tell you! Aaaahhheeeee
