How to keep me from eating your sandwich:

July 31st, 2008 · by map · 12 Comments

Refer to it in your advertising as a “ginormous yum rocket.” Who comes up with this stuff? I think this was an ad for Subway that ran last night during either Law & Order or Project Runway (do NOT get me started on Suede. Just don’t.). In any case, it was a truly gag-inducing bit of ad copy, and I hope the person responsible for it was summarily dismissed from his or her position. Sounds harsh, I know, and it’s a tough time to be without a salary, but ginormous yum rockets only cost, like, $5, so dinner’s covered.

    thank you for knocking the ginormous yum rocket. we sat there dumbfounded the other night as we watched the commercial, and had a similar series of observations – not to mention wishes for the creator of this drivel.

    as for the proj, the 8:00 time frame this year messes up our gym night on wednesday, and i am furious with Bravo. furious. i’m two shows behind. no – i do not TiVo. i’ll have to read tim’s blogs and catch up. argh.

    Blog posts, as informative as they are, can never adequately convey the full idiocy that is Suede.

    It all sounds very phallic to me. Ditto to your comment about gagging.

    Sorry. I’m just sayin.’

    Off subject: I would guess that your mother-in-law is PISSED with John Edwards right now……

    (I’m pissed too – what a jerk. Can you IMAGINE if he were the nominee??!!! He would have brought the whole party down with his pants.)
