So according to TiVO, the top commercial during the Super Bowl on Sunday was from Ameriquest mortgage (I think - whoever said the "don't judge") and basically the premise was this:
A crowded airplane at night, a woman gets up, there's turbelance, she loses her balance and lands in some guy's lap. The compartment lights turn on and everybody sees her sitting on him and he looks confused. People aren't to judge b/c of the embarrassing position she's in. She's facing him, STRADDLED on his lap, blouse has popped open, and he has one of those sleep masks that he's now pushed up and it looks like a black bra on his head.
I think you all can get the picture.
Now, I'm not gonna get all RR on you, or all psycho-fem either, but WHERE THE HELL'S THE FCC NOW? Aside from the obvious objectification of women (had to throw it in there - and don't even get me started on those "godaddy.com" or whatever ads), how is it ok for kids to see a 30 sec ad eluding to people having sex and not ok for a 3 sec "wardrobe malfunction"?
I'm disgusted b/c of the hypocrisy. Parents, teachers, doctors, caregivers are afraid to be blunt about good touch v. bad touch, but in 4th/5th grade they can learn about condoms. Christians are ok w/ Brittney Spears b/c she once mentioned being Baptist, but freak out that kids read HARRY POTTER. We like that Jesus came for the tax-collectors & prostitutes, but we don't really want them to come to church (only the Salvation Army).
Anyways... I could go on and on, but hopefully you see why I found this ridiculous.

dude - not even gonna dignify that w/ a response... you're such a turd.
who the hell is avila? and why is she calling me a turd?
by the way i thought the other commercial was better anyway..... you know the one with teh guy and the electric paddles standing over the guy in teh hospital bed. LOL!

"avila" would be me, ya turd, and I picked that b/c that's who I'm named after, St. Teresa de Avila. She was a mystic and the foundress of the Carmelite order of nuns and spanish. Plus, she was the first female doctor of the Roman Catholic Church -- in other words, a heavy thinker & chick theologian. My mom forsaw my destiny, I suppose. And by the way, my name has no "h" in it, so fix your blog, dude!
I also thought the electric paddles commercial was hilarious - when the little girl comes in the room and lets go of the balloon, so funny.
ok #1 you called me a turd so the F#$kin "h" stays. get used to it.
#2 St. avilawhosawhatsit?
