Viva Viagra

Earlier today I saw that new Viagra commercial for the first time. It took me a few moments to recover...

Anyway, I haven't stopped thinking about that 30 second commercial and Viva Viagra is such a catchy tune... It's just your typical impromptu jam session where dudes sing about the how much they want to run home as fast as they can and the joys of popping pills so they won't need to stray from their wives... Yeah, I know. I'm sure I'm not the only person that thinks this commercial is so brilliantly fucked up.

For those of you that haven't seen it, here it is.

Enjoy.




And I know I'm not the first person to question the standards that allow commercials like that to get broadcast on our public airwaves but the Trojan commercial below didn't make the list...



Is it because the commercial is portraying 20 somethings picking up sexual partners at a bar as opposed to wholesome 40 something men singing about popping a pill so they can faithfully boink they wife? Ah, I get it now. See, we'll never see the crossover commercial featuring a guy picking up some lady in a bar and running to the bathroom to pop a little blue pill and smiling confidently into the camera...
