Funny new commercial (gross)

[blas]

I was watching Lifetime movies yesterday (yes I'm a dork) and I saw a new commercial for a new feminine product. It's called rePHresh.

It's something women can use to rebalance the ph level in their cha chas.

The women are all perky and say things like...

"After my period, rePHresh!"

"After intercourse, rePHresh!"

"After douching, rePHresh!"

[Ree]

EEEEWWW!!!

Now there's a commercial you want to watch with all the kiddies in the room, or when you're on a date with your man, just hanging out watching TV. :o

[TruthHurts]

"And after watching this commercial reGurgitate" :)

[blas]

I haven't seen it on any other network yet, but to be fair, Lifetime is for women....

But some day this week I'm pretty sure I'll see it while I'm watching Judge Judy or Ghost Hunters...

I immediately began choking up after watching it, and my bf said "Thank God I'm not a woman", then he proceeded to ask what douching is. He knows what a "douche" is (aka, slang for a dumb guy) but he doesn't know what a real douche is.

Some things need to be kept private IMHO and that was one of them.

I think this is needed :brainbleach:

Doesn't compare to that birth control test commercial where it shows a giant stream of digital urine land on the thing.

...then he proceeded to ask what douching is. He knows what a "douche" is (aka, slang for a dumb guy) but he doesn't know what a real douche is.

I first heard this one about forty years ago...

Three girls are on the beach, and it's a very hot day. They visit the refreshment stand.

1st girl: Such a hot day... I believe I'll have a lemonade.
2nd girl: That sounds wonderful... I'll have one, too.
3rd girl: I'll have a douche. Mother says they're so refreshing.

This is just to let you know that it has escaped from the lifetime network and is in the wilds. I was watchign CMT early this morning and saw the very one you are talking about.

Why do women hygenie product commercial have to be so ewww? You never see commercials for mens stuff like jock itch creams being advertised like that.

"You know Bob, after working all day on the job site, my crotch itches so severely, and there's nothing you can do about it."

"Not true Jim, use *****"

Yeah, someone would be offended by that. Feminine Itch = okay for everyone to hear about. Jock Itch = offensive.

Ever watch Spike TV? Holy moly, the commercials on there for ED medicines... :eek:

[Caveat Emptor]

The ones for Cialis I believe with that guy who's always "smiling"....:brainbleach:

[Rahmota]

yeah I watch Spike channel a bit. Those ED commercials are very tasteful, sedate and appropriate. ;):p But still ED and jock itch while in the same zip code are not the same kind of subject and not the same kind of ewww factor to me.

Caveat: Smiling bob is for the enzyte product. Manufactured in cincinnati Ohio and the recent target of a federal inquiry/lawsuit into their claims that the stuff actually does anything. Not that I know one way or the other never having needed either pills.

That one with the annoyingly jaunty whistling and the guy who looks like he's had an overdose of The Joker's "Smilex"? Ugh, I hate that awful commercial! :puke:

Why doesn't this surprise me? It sounds to me like a 21st century version of snake oil. :rolleyes: Thanks for the info!

Are you kidding me?!

If MEN were the ones who had menstrual cycles, it'd be something to brag about! Which guy bled the most, which guy used the highest absorbency, which guy had the worst cramps. Pads and tampons would be paid for by the goverment because our strong young men need them!

[draftermatt]

Um, why do people always think that men brag about/ compete about everything? Neither I, or any of my friends have ever done any of that stuff, and I've never met a man who does.

[blas]

Just being a smartass but it wouldn't shock me if it were ever true.

[Princess-Snake]

That commercial was on last night on court tv while I was watching COPS. And wouldn't you know it, I was eating dinner too. Lost my appetite soon after that.

[Gawdzillers]

Oh man, have you guys seen the commercial for Raisin Bran?
It features a big burly construction worker enjoying a bowl of Bran and preachign to the camera about its great fiber.
All the while, there are such sights as:
-Other workers pulling an I-beam out of some sort of window
-A load of barrels falling (while the guy stands conveniently in front of them in such a position that they look like they're falling from...well, you know)
-A dump truck unloading its cargo.

:roll:

But some day this week I'm pretty sure I'll see it while I'm watching Judge Judy or Ghost Hunters...

Jeez, I hope not! I'm watching "Ghost Hunters" right now! :eek:

Yeah, they're not only on Spike. I've seen 'em all over. Anybody remember the one with Bob Dole? :lol:

I'd just like to know why we need a commercial for any of the stuff that has to do with bodily functions. If people need it, they'll find it. I'm not a prude and I've got a pretty strong stomach, but damn!

[TruthHurts]

Has anyone seen the commercial for Sour Skittles? It shows this man being milked like a cow while some guy chastises for giving sour milk. Seriously that does not make me think mmmm must buy Sour Skittles.

[Pagan]

Has anyone seen the DQ commercial with the dog begging a chicken strip from his person and then wanting dipping sauce, too! It's hilarious! :lol:

There's another one that I had forgotten about until TruthHurts mentioned the Skittles. It was for Carl's Jr., I think. Anyway, some guy is shaking some poor cow to the tune of "Get Busy" by Sean Paul. It's supposed to make you think of milkshakes, but it looks like something else entirely! :devil:
