Commercial for Oeros involving people "coming out" about being gay, or something like that
And, oh noes, Republiturds are in a tizzy over it and they must now boycott a brand of cookies
Oh noes. The oh noes. What. Ever. Shall. I Do.
I actually don't even know what the commercial IS, since we've cut cable I don't watch TV anymore, and I was only able to read a snippet about it on a Salon article before I hit the paywall.
....Oh hey wait a sec....
So if I accept the "cookies" for a website like Salon, does that mean I'm "coming out" as gay? Even though I'm not actually gay?
Is THAT how it works?!
Well, Shit.....
Or...Oh wait, is it that eating Oreos signifies that you're gay or about to come out to your family? Or something like that?
I'm sorry, Republiturds, I'm not entirely clear what the Outrage-Of-The-Week is about. It's not clearly defined.
I'm also sorry I don't really eat Oreos nearly as often as I used to, so does that mean I used to be Gay and now I'm not? I dunno, I've got one friend who I've known for 22 years who's come out as not only gay but also transgender, and have a new friend I've known for about 5 years now who's gay (and Married Gay for like 20 years now)...They both told me they're gay like in the first few minutes of meeting for the first time.....But....I mean, I've never turned gay but we're like really good friends
Were we supposed to eat Oreos or something? Is it some sort of weirdo kink euphamism about how we eat an Oreo? and is that the same thing with like "There's no wrong way to eat a Reeces?" Reeces peanutbutter cup? You gotta pull the oreo apart and lick the creme filling and then slap those round halves back together. mmmmm raunchy
....Oh shit is that going to be the next Outrage-Of-The-Week next week? Over Peanutbutter cups?!
Since this is now April, that means Easter theme Egg-Shaped Peanutbutter Cups...OH FUCK What Does It MEAN ?1
Because, well, you know, Easter theme Egg-Shaped Peanutbutter cups Taste Differently than Regular Peanutbuttercups....So it must be a MIND CONTROL DEVICE
OH FUCK, Oreos and Reeces Peanutbuttercups must be GAY CONTROL DEVICES
DAMMIT. I'm still trying to deal with my Severe Trauma having seen that comic book about anthropomorphic mice depicted NUDE, and I'm still having awkward feelings when presented with a cartoon Green candy wearing white go-go boots.... DAMMIT Republiturds - MAKE IT STOP
EVERYTHING IN MY CHILDHOOD IS BEING RUINED BY YOUR OUTRAGES
(Also, I'm not sure how obvious to make my heavy sarcasm....)
Addendum:
I forgot to mention some of my thoughts and opinions of this.
I do not feel that a company or brand should use their product to push an agenda.
Back In The Day when you had that Tollhouse commercial where the Kid had a Really Rough Day and it was Made Better by Mom making Tollhouse cookies, because, cookies makes it better....Yeah it's tacky and unrealistic and supposed to underline this social thing where you can solve emotional issues by spending time with a parent and making/eating comfort food so buy our products because profit margins
But now all of a sudden it's become politicized (like fucking everything) and well go figure.
Not sure how to articulate my thoughts on this to be honest. It's blatant product-placement and marketing to sell products and connecting it with some sort of emotional life situation.
It's not like a subversive message of "World Peace" through holding hands with enough people to go around the World (ignoring the oceans) and only through the power of a soft drink and it's Global Imperial expansionism.....
