Commercialist: Pregnancy Tests

A commercial for a pregnancy test (I don't remember which one) ends with this phrase:

"The most advanced technology you will ever pee on."

I have no complaints here -- I just find that line hilarious.

That is so totally Funny, I hear lots of weird things on commercials and I wonder who says, Yeah that's exactly what we are trying to sell. Sounds great to me, go to press! I don't think they listen to what is said.

Jeanie C. Jan 14, 2008, 7:03pm EST

It's like the commercial for sanitary napkins with wings and the last line is

Have a great period. No woman ever has a great period!! That's insane!

The one that gets me is the one where they promise to tell you you are pregnant if you are only 5 days pregnant - newer and better predictors. Wow, you can't wait even a couple of weeks to find out - and if you are not, do you run out and grab the first man you see or tie your chosen sperm-provider down to the bed until you get that 5-day okay?

I almost never watch TV, but I caught that commercial once and laughed my butt off. Commercials are so much easier to swallow when they are funny.

It's kind of funny. Just proves there is no modesty or privacy anymore. Everything is in your face when it comes to making a profit.

That is so funny! I have never heard it, but maybe that is because I tune those out so well as soon as I hear them.
