I think Kimmer’s hearing is completely going. I swear I have no idea what people are trying to say lately. As I have said before, I am an avid television viewer and this week is no different. Of course, the season premiere of House was on and I just love a snide asshole on TV. (I also watched Fringe and I find it to be just as annoying as Lost, but at least it has a decent sarcastic character in Joshua Jackson.) My point, however, is that as I watched TV obviously dozens of commercials interrupted my viewing pleasure and I found myself saying “What?” to so many of them.
Examples:
There was a commercial for a trail mix/peanut type snack and I swear the tag line said:
“An extraordinary nut sack.”
What?!
There was a commercial for Dominos Pizza with this penis-looking noodle screaming:
“Prostitute! Prostitute!”
What?!
And I cannot even begin to quote anything that comes out of the mouth of the guy who calls himself the Commissioner of Beer. I have absolutely no idea what that guy is saying at all.
So either I am officially going deaf or the marketing of products is far beyond my feeble comprehension. I guess age does matter.
What?!

Ha! That’s hilarious – my husband and son will get a kick out of the nut commercial!
