Snap. Crackle. Pop culture.

Tonight on the bus I saw an advertisement for Good Vibrations.* I can only guess that the approvers of that ad thought it was a Berkeley hippie thing.

Come the hell on, people. I mean, Michael Stipe and Billy Bragg spontaneously ad-libbing lyrics to it back in the 90's was funny, but this (which is now a goddamned real live TV commerical) is soooooo not.

We'll give you $1,000,000 to bob for apples in a vat of cow's blood... But we'll only give you $100,000 for losing LOTS O'WEIGHT and keeping it off. YAY AMERICA!!

Thank God for the latest Virgin Mobile commercials which put the holidays into perspective.
