I saw this commercial on TV around 1973. Once. It was pulled off the air fast.

Estragon: I can't go on like this.
Vladimir: That's what you think.

OMG.  I doubt that commercial would convince me to buy anything, but what a wacko.

LOL!

I go to a Traumatology Clinic where the walls are covered by these. I wonder if that's a good idea.  :D









(BTW that's Quino, one of my favorite cartoonist).

The "I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up" commercials. I think they're appalling.
It's been on my mind because my mom, who's 80 now, fell in her kitchen last week and lay there for 90 minutes before her husband got home and phoned 911.

Here's a remix:

She had a bout of diverticulitis and I think she fainted due to hunger.

I'm sorry to hear about your mother, tarascon.  That's awful.

What's worse about that cover is that the timber he's holding is pine/deal, which is the most commonly used timber there is.

If he's not sure about that, I suggest he not change a light bulb any time soon.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.
