Do you know this cereal ad? The setting is a suburban mall. A piece of Shredded Wheat is taking a survey. He stops a middle-class shopper in her early thirties:
---- WHEAT: Excuse me, ma'am. . . . LADY: Yes? WHEAT: True or false: "I enjoy frosting in the morning." LADY: True! (more stuff happens, etc.) ---- And that's when all the holes in my head start gushing blood. I have no problem with anthropomorphic foodstuffs; they're pretty standard ad fare, and if I started questioning them. . . well, the universe might just cease to exist, I guess. So you can have your talking wheat chunks. What absolutely flips my shit out is that this mall lady DOESN'T EVEN THINK TWICE before saying that yes, she loooooves to eat frosting for breakfast. FROSTING! Glarrgle! This is a fit, slender, woman with a semitrendy hairdo and maybe even some capri pants. Frosting is sugar and Crisco. You don't eat frosting for breakfast, lady -- no one does. NOBODY EATS FROSTING FOR BREAKFAST! It is vital to my sanity that this one thing be true. Nobody, except maybe trailer-dwelling unemployed potheads -- but they're not even awake in the morning. So how can this wheat and lady team pretend that frosting for breakfast is normal? Instead of what it is, which is a sign of a SERIOUS EATING DISORDER. Frosting? For breakfast? Jesus fucking Christ's BALLS. 0 comments |
