CBS Says GoDaddy Can’t ‘Do’ It’s Mother

Now this is odd. A GoDaddy spot without Candice Michelle or Danica Patrick or fake big breasts has been “banned” by CBS as a possible Super Bowl commercial for the master of domains. The spot, called I Own You, has two guys in office cubicles with one demonstrating the ease of GoDaddy domain registration by taking all the domains his cube mate might want. Things get humorous when the subject turns to the second guys mother. Don’t miss the witty (more witty with another “s”) last name of the second guy too. We like the effort but can understand why a network might have a problem with his.

According to GoDaddy, which will buy three spots in the game, one will feature either or both Candice Michelle and new GoDaddy girl Danica Patrick. As long as the network approves it that is. We’re thinking the non-Candice/Danica spots might actually turn out to be the better ones.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
