Lady Lashes Out Against Ubiquitous Yogurt Advertising

We take it for granted that most ads are full of shit most of the time, but every once in awhile you need to take a whole industry to task. This video does that for the woman-targeting yogurt peddlers.

“Yogurt eaters come from every race, but just one socio-economic class: the class that wears gray hoodies. It’s that ‘I have a Masters, but then I got married’ look!”

For the record, I eat yogurt all day long. In my underpants. With other women that are also wearing underpants. We like to see who can purr the longest after the spoon leaves our mouths. Ever try making sex sounds with a mouthful of Yoplait and peach bits? It’s a dirty job with not a few risks, including choking, dribbling and potential loss of dignity.

Oh — and that bowel-turning feeling that follows marathon yogurt consumption? Don’t be fooled by perceived discomfort; it’s a fringe benefit. Ask our yogurt-licking buddy Jamie.

Thanks to Shane at O’Donnell Design for sharing.

The loneliest moment in a long marriage isn’t a fight or a silence. It’s when you say something that matters to you and the other person responds with a subject change so smooth you almost don’t notice they never acknowledged what you said.

Right now in a nursing home somewhere a woman who ran a household for 50 years, raised 4 children, buried a husband, survived a cancer scare, and managed a family budget through 3 recessions is being spoken to in a voice usually reserved for toddlers by a 24-year-old who means well but has no idea she’s talking to a general who lost her army
