So I'm at the on-site fitness center at lunch today, elliptical-ing my way towards summer. The TV is tuned to ESPN, of course - 95% of users are men, so that means we must watch sports of some flavor. I usually tune it out, but today I forgot my iPod. And hey, did you know we're in countdown to Mother's Day?
Based on the frequency of flower-delivery commercials, I'm guessing the average Guy doesn't.
This wasn't just frequent ads, however. This was downright insulting. For those with a developed frontal lobe, this was the subtext:
Are you a guy?
Do you think you should buy your mom something?
Are you inept at everything?
Buy flowers from us, moron!
This was a ProFlowers commercial, with men talking about how satisfied they are with the flowers from ProFlowers. (Ok) Followed by commentary from an actress-mom saying "when I get flowers, I feel remembered and appreciated." (Cue gagging) Then, to top it off....
