Super Bowl ellipsi...

The general consensus is that the Super Bowl commercials were, by & large, uninspiring.  Can't argue with that assessment.

My personal favorites were the Blockbuster spot and the one where the chicks in the car got the homeless Chippendale car wash.

But so help me Cthulu, I'm not having another one of these ever again.  (Never mind that I'm a diabetic and really can't - if you're gonna try and sell me a product, you damned well had best not offend me - and that spot was offensive in the extreme.)

Oh yeah, and congrats, Peyton Manning.  Good on ya.

My dad's proud.

He's from Mississippi, loved Archie Manning when he played, and Mom calls Peyton and Eli my dad's "stepsons". :)

I didn't watch the Super Bowl. What was the problem with the Snickers commercial?

David, it went this way:


Two mechanics working on a car.  One's eating a Snickers bar, got it in his mouth while working on the car.

Second mechanic sees the candy bar just hanging there, decides to latch onto it with his own mouth.  And it turns into a Lady and the Tramp  scene from there.

Pretty offensive.

yeah, I can see that it would be.
