I saw a commercial on TV this morining that made me laugh my ass off. It is for a hair wax product called Nads and they say the word Nads many times. “get some nads today!!!” Why would anyone give a product such a stupid name. Maybe the word nads only has a perverted conotation in my area, is that true?

I believe that the product was named after the woman’s daughter. Nadia, or something like that.

That aside, it is definitly funny. 🙂

No kidding, why in the world did they name it “Nads”? I swear, they are just asking for it. They might as well have called their product “Tea bags” or “The Twins.”

Saw it once and had hysterics. Isn’t the lady who invented it Australian? Maybe the slang isn’t the same.

But, sheesh, the pure _scope_ for lowbrow humor: “what are you doing tonight?” “oh, rubbing Nads all over my face.”

I saw that commercial once. The lady sticks her hand in the jar and eats the product she’s trying to sell. ick! I mean, that’s meant for removing hair, not eating!
