Anyone else catch that new commercial for “Amp’d Mobile” (whatever that is?).
Wow…
No… Don’t… die… Senator…

I kind of like the edge, but one selling point (“it’s got really cool graphics”) makes me gag. I say this as a kid who worked on graphics software for a year straight.
It’s bad enough that I don’t even want to look into it!
My husband loves that commercial. Then he starts looking at me. We’ve missed seeing the end of the commercial before. 
Every time I watch that, I keep thinking “Wow, how cool would it be to be the guy that played the senator in that commercial and have to spend the day with that bouncing on me?”
How sad is it that every time I see that commercial, I think
“Without a backboard or moving him to the floor, she has no chance with those chest compressions.”
I weep for the future of the country if advertising executives think that the high point of the future of a Senator is, in the eyes of consumers, the chance to buy a telephone.
The same though occurred to me, but then I was distracted by the bouncing.
“Um, I think I messed up that time, my hair was out of place or something. Looks like we’ll have to shoot another take.”
Well, that’s the joke. If you dislike that kind of too-cool-for-the-room knowing comedy, OK, but that just means you don’t dig it, not that it doesn’t make sense.

There’s another one like it, with what looks like a dead rock star lying on the floor of a hotel room, with a maid yelling at him in spanish.
This ad comes on, and my husband rolls his eyes in disgust. I, on the other hand, am turned on.
I think we’re both gay. Somehow, this works for us.

[or* is * it?]
I like that one for some reason. “Videojuegos… y mp3s…”
Try not to die.
There are two great things about the rock star/maid one.
First: the rock star guy is twitching.
Second: after it cuts away from the action, you hear her spit on him.
cracks me up every time.
That’s a commercial?
They’re selling something??
no waaa-aaay…
Next, you’ll be telling me that the woman in the “O” commercials is trying to promote a discount merchandise website.
HAH! Fool me ONCE…
Don’t you dare belittle my Sabine!
