THAT's the problem. Every other ad is for ED for crying out loud.
This bill will draw some stiff competition from the drug lobby. I wonder if it will last long? It’s hard to say.
They can include the ones for Birth Control and incontinence as well.
Summer Breeze, remove them too.
With all the crap on TV these days, I'd say ED commercials should be the least of any parent's worry...
Does anyone know what the two bath tubs represent?
Nope. Too icky.
"Icky" is the only word for those things. Even when they try to be funny.
The old man slowly, methodically produced a potion, handed it to me, and with a grip on my shoulder, warned, "This is powerful medicine and it must be respected. You take only a teaspoonful and then say '1-2-3.' When you do that, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life and you can go as long as you want."
I was encouraged. As I walked away, I turned and asked, "How do I stop the medicine from working?" "Your partner must say '1-2-3-4,' he responded. "But when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon."
I was eager to see if it worked so I went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited my wife to join me in the bedroom. When she came in, I took off my clothes and said, " 1-2-3!"
Immediately, I was the manliest of men. My wife was excited and began throwing off her clothes. And then she asked, "What did you say 1-2-3 for?"
And that, boys and girls, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition.
One could end up with a dangling participle.
I’m put off by the ads, but I don’t know if this is route to go. Kids tend to be pulled into things that interest them, and I just don’t see anything in these ads that would capture their attention. Except, maybe, that Viva Viagara song. Even if they do ask about it — well, if parents can’t come up with an answer to that (and it doesn’t even have to go into all the details— an answer like “it’s a problem some grownups have” will suffice) — then how are they going to answer the inevitable, bigger, and more important questions the kids will ask? Oh, wait. I know. Have the government provide a manual of answers, or just make the situations go away that might result in uncomfortable questions.
I does seem like those ads are taking over TV. On the other hand, the products must be selling - I’m surprised that there are so many men that require something like that, other than coming out of a prostate cancer scenario.
I’d like to get rid of the ADT ads or at least have them use ethnic types on both sides - break in robber and those being robbed.
I saw an ad recently for a pill that will increase size and stamina. And if you buy now, they would throw in a topical cream to assist in increasing size. Just rub it in and see immediate results... Well, duh!!!
If Jim Moran is still upset about this issue four hours from now, he should seek proper medical attention.
My problem is that these ads forced explaining “erectile disfunction” to my now 9 year old daughter before she had the “erectile function” talk with Mom.
I honestly don’t think so, I can come up with about half a dozen different kid-friendly ways to explain what ED is, without giving away any unnecessary details about sex, off the top of my head, and I may have used one or two of them before.
Personally I think, having a happy, straight, older couple who’s (presumably) still married is a far better image that kids could be seeing on TV than some of the wild alcoholic partying in vodka ads or the ‘euphoria’ perfume ad or the Levi’s jeans ad with the gay couple or some of the Axe body spray ads, or Peta’s “I’d rather go naked” ad campaign...
