So I just saw this crazy ad for some sort of Skippy™ peanut butter granola snack bar. It really defies description so I’m hoping that some of you out there can confirm that I was not having an acid flashback. ---

Sorry, it is a real commercial. Can’t understand the reasoning behind this, just an ad. ---

I get the elephant/peanut reference but…holy shit. ---

That one elephant has a gold tusk. Apparently his name is J’Phant. [http://wlns.com/Global/story.asp?S=1866206](http://wlns.com/Global/story.asp?S=1866206) ---

Ha! Turn it up, mahn, or it just isn’t quite as eyebrow raising as that first blaring taste at that “10 times louder than the show you were just watching” volume. I had looked all over [peanutbutter.com](http://peanutbutter.com) site for the [link](http://www.peanutbutter.com/video/video.html) to no avail. I still can’t see any mention of it included there. Thanks for the cite **Bad News Baboon**! ---

What a repulsive piece of business that was. I’m tempted to boycott Skippy for the 2 brain cells I killed watching that dreck. Yeah, I think I will. I like Jif better, anyway. 😃 ---

But it’s a catchy tune! “Skippy it’s what’s in the bar!” What? 😃
