You’ve never seen the first Poltergeist movie?
Well, this whole gravestones/mattresses thing shines an entirely new light on the venerable Biblical comment about “not dead but sleeping”!! 
Wow, there really IS a Bible quote for every situation.
Well, I am glad this boycott thing turned out to be unnecessary because I just can’t get behind any boycott that deprives me of coffee.
While those are clearly not tombstones, I can see where somebody might get confused. Even still, I cant believe nobody has picked up on something even more outrageous. The ad begins with the kids ripping up Bibles! Motherfucking Bibles people! I dont care what religion you are or aren’t, but that’s seriously offensive. I doubt the ad is really going to encourage any youth to go out and rip up people’s holy texts, but do we really want to belong to a culture where such a destructive act of vandalism and disrespect is considered cool? I dont. I’m too apathetic to boycott DD, but I dont know if I will feel as comfortable buying from then now. Look, maybe I’m biased because I’m Christian, but ripple up Bibles is not cool. If it was a Koran, this ad would be on the national news, but since it’s a Bible I guess nobody gives a shit. Grrrrr, that ad makes me angry.
So angry I want to rip things in half.
Huh? 
Do you consider the phonebook a Bible or are you just purposely being obtuse?
I think he’s purposely mocking the OP.
In other words, WHOOSH.
Aaaaaaaand Whoosh! Gotcha ya! 
I empathize with you, Rigamarole. With Autolycus, you never know.
Hey! 
(how should I take that remark? lol)
Amen to that.
I can imagine having to wear disguise and go through the D&D drive thru in someone else’s car at 3am just so StarvingButStrong didn’t catch me. 
**points and laughs at Rigamarole. You got whooshed. (but H&R is right, you *can *never tell with Autolycus, so I’m not laughing that hard)
When I die
Oh when I diiiiiiie
Bury me six feet deep
Yes six feet deeeeeep
With a big ol soft mattress over my grave
So all my friends can come by
And drink a toast to meee
And then zork.
Actually, I suspect that the ad agency expects and even WANTS people to see it that way – makes the commercial look edgy or something.
Why? They were cute.
Who knew ripped Seal meat went well with coffee? Ignorance fought.
And when I Die.
And when I’m dead…dead and gone,
There’ll be one child born…in the world
To rip mattresses in half, drink decaf,
and carry on, carry on…!
Dux and runs…
Replace:
sleeping people with bodies;
bedroom with cemetery; &
mattresses with headstones…
…and you get the climactic scene near the end of Poltergeist when Craig Nelson confronts the greedy developer who failed to move the bodies before he built a subdivision over a cemetery.
Not really. I had a feeling you might be doing it on purpose, hence you confirmed that it was the latter. I just didn’t think it was funny.
Nobody likes a sore loser.
Auto, you are not helping your reputation any, you know.
What started as a perhaps in-poor-taste joke is now turning this thread into a commentary on me. I’m bowing out on this thread before I lose my temper. If anyone wishes to talk to me about my reputation here and how I affected it with my actions in this thread, then you can PM me.
I need some coffee and a donut…
