You Did What?

This Automobile Commercial has been running for years and I think it is Foolishness. Did I just hear you say, “What makes you think you are an expert on Foolishness?”

OK, Mr. Smarty Pants Dear Reader, I will come to the defense of me on the subject of Foolishness and Silliness and Craziness. I have written more than 1,500 Blog Postings on these subjects. The only person who can even approach this record of “achievement” was Willy Wonka and he is dead and, even more than that, he never was alive.

Let’s get back to the Automotive Commercial. You tell me if you think this is not Foolishness...

Ø An excited wife is shown outside her family home getting her Husband’s Christmas Present ready to be presented to an unsuspecting him.

Ø The getting ready part is...

>Parking it in exactly the right place.

>Putting the Gigantic Red Bow in exactly the right place on top of her about-to-be-shocked hubby’s new very expensive Christmas Present.

Yes, you now remember the commercial of which I speak. The new Christmas Present for her about-to-be-shocked like he has never been shocked before hubby is a Brand Spanking New Lexus.

Now I ask you how many wives are going to go out and spend more than $50,000 for a Christmas Present without first talking the purchase over with her husband.

This is Foolish. This is Silly. This is Crazy. However, this commercial must be working because it has been running every year for many years.

What the commercial makers leave out of the commercial is the part where the wife makes the husband feel all better about her gigantic dip into their checkbook when she tells him...

Honey, the best part is the Gigantic Red Bow! I got such a deal on that Gigantic Red Bow you will not believe me when I tell you. All I had to pay was $312 a month for 36 Months but, my Lexus Salesman gave me 0% Interest!

There it is! There is that look on your face that my Salesman told me you were going to have on your face when I told you about the Gigantic Red Bow Deal I negotiated!

Shut your mouth, shocked hubby, and go take a ride in your New Lexus.

Merry Christmas from Lexus...Experience Amazing!

Would I kid u?

Lagniappe: Reminder to Shocked Hubby... Before you go for your ride, be sure to remove your Gigantic Red Bow and store it in your garage. You would not want to have it blow off and get all dirty. Too bad your Lexus is going to be left outside because your Gigantic Red Bow will be taking up its parking space.
