Yes she is.
I haven’t been able to mis-hear it yet as “white man.” The closest I can think of is “white way of putting cash in your pocket.”
But still…it is white whale.
Why would a white whale be putting money in any pockets?
Because it doesn’t have pockets of its own?
OK, I’ll buy it…
But that doesn’t even make sense! So, it’s the “Moby Dick of putting cash in your pocket”???
What the hell does that even mean?
I heard this commercial exactly once and I also thought it was “white man putting cash in your pocket.” Since I saw this thread way back in June I have not heard the commercial. I’m glad it’s been revived and possibly even solved.
“For people whose bitch goddess is saving money, this is the holy grail.”
Just my way of making sense of it, if that is what she says. I haven’t heard the commercial.
Again, everything she says in that commercial is about Progressive’s savings being huge in size. First, she just says it’s huge, then she makes Analogy #1, which I’ve forgotten, then Analogy #2, which is apparently that it’s as big as a white whale, then Analogy #3, which is that it’s so big, it can be seen from orbit. “White whale” really does fit here, both in the general context of large things, and also in the order in which she scales up the size of things.
OK, it’s all clear to me now.
I’ll just go ahead and move on to solving the US economy crisis.
Don’t wait up…
Just heard this commercial for the first time right now on an Internet radio station I’m listening to. It’s, without a doubt, “white whale,” as Zipper JJ says.
You know, I thought ‘The Messenger’ and Flo were an item too, given how he affectionately he tweaks the Bobble-head of her he has on his dashboard.
Boy that sounded filthy . . . .
Paul Whiteman putting cash in your pocket?
So it’s not a reference to Wiley’s “Cash in my Pocket”?
hahahahahahahaha 
To mo’ bedeck them?
Just heard this today. If she’s not saying white man I’m a Soxfan.
I’m going have to grab the audio somehow next time I hear it. I didn’t hear “white man” at all, unless there’s some other commercial. It was clearly “white whale” to me. I’m not even sure how so many people can hear “white man” in it.
God, I’m glad someone else heard her say “white man” besides me.
That commercial has been driving me crazy for months now.
What is a white whale?
