So old...

Just saw/heard a commercial for some pre-packaged blue cheese crumbles. You know, so you can sprinkle them on your salad and make it all tasty! I would be very excited about such a product if it had not made me feel so very old, sad and pathetic.

Their "jingle" for this great new salad accompaniment is sung to the tune of EMF's 90's super-hit "Unbelievable". You remember:

"The things... you say...
Your purple prose just give you away
The things... you say...
You're uhnbuhlivabullll"

Apparently, this new salad fixin' is "Crumbelievable" if you are to believe their new take on the lyrics:

"The thing... you crave
That big cheese taste just blows you away
The thing... you crave...
Your CRUMBelievable"

I now know why my older brother cried when they used The Beatles "Revolution" for a Nike shoes.

I get so sad when i hear my favourite songs used in commercials. I know there are so many other, more deserving songs, that deserve that treatment..... I am waiting to see what product picks up Britney spears' "Toxic" song.



hmmmm perhaps I can pitch that to starbux, since they sucketh so much.

I saw that ad! Matter of fact, Freak & I were watching tv when that ad came on! We screamed & bounced & pointed & turned to each other saying "OMFG! Did You See THat? Holy Crap!" and other things like that.

I still scoff at the idea that someone would actually need their cheese to be crumbled FOR them. I mean, come ON

"Do you like crumbled cheese? Sure, we all do! But who has the time and skill to crumble their own cheese in this day and age? Well now there's good news!"
