Whenever a commercial comes on TV, I quickly mute the sound. For some reason the sound is louder during commercials than during regular programming and it grates on my nerves. Maybe I'm imagining this and I just hate commercials…
Besides, lately commercials seem to for the most part have given up on any kind of originality. You see a man and a woman, doing some fun outside activity. Is this an ad for:
- Asthma medication
- Allergy medication
- The latest sport SUV (bonus points if you know which one)
- Anti depression medication
- Genital Herpes medication
This last one always gets me. Since when is genital herpes linked with a diminished capacity to enjoy outdoor activities? I always thought it was the *indoor* activities that were compromised.
