kedamonoSome Commercials are just Plain Evil. Filled with Evil People, doing Evil Things.
So I'm watching this commercial for Circuit City, you know the one, the poor schmuck who's emptying out his pockets, desperately looking for his receipt.
Oh, I know, the commercial is about how you don't need to have your receipt to exchange an item. That they keep a database on all your purchases and know how many teen age exploitation flicks you've bought in the past year. Nothing Evil in that.
But still, when the commercial opens up, the poor slob has a pile of crap in front of him already. That the customer service bitch just stood there and watched him empty out his pockets, naming each item, denoting just how pitiful his life was.
Then after he pulls out a reel of floss, "Just in case", she finally takes him off the hook and tells him that he doesn't need a receipt.
Bitch. She could have told him from the start! Instead she stood there watching him humiliate himself before her, before she magnanimously freed him.
The commercial ends with him packing away the remnants of his lonely life and he says, "Floss? Who flosses these days?"
Of course the counter bitch chooses to grind him a bit more under her heel and says "I floss."
Of course, the man, desperate to impress her, blurts out "I floss too." You can just hear the unsaid words "Can we have sex now?" that obviously were running through his be-smitten head.
Evil commercial. It plays the man as a boy desperate to prove his manhood, to impress the ice queen behind the desk, who has absolute control of the situation.
