So I am about to upload a video and share my Christmas WTF!!?!! With you guys. But I wanted to also ask. What have you seen this year that you just go. Wtf? About Christmas?
@Foxborn My condolences. Here's hoping that it doesn't run in three's.
Still, one hell of an ad. The "WTF" for me is really more the cultural difference it illustrates - I don't know that this would have run (successfully) in the States.
@Foxborn I'm soooo sorry for your losses (((hugs))) I have lost a three of my favorite grandparents on holidays, it's hard, but they're always in my heart. My thoughts are with you!
Note. This is in Vermont outside of my door a neighbor put this fish up. I had to stop video because I felt like a peeping tom as it was getting a bit of their house.
@sohmageek Lowe's recently had this as one of their daily deals for Christmas. It was only $99. It sings "I Will Survive." Don't know which says "Christmas!" the most, this thing or the Christmas inflatable Darth Vader.
@sohmageek So they took it down... I can believe that... but I was just like WOW it went up at all.... I believe this is the neighbor that has daily tailgate parties/benders... in the summer I see one of my neighbors grilling on the back of his truck, and drinking... We aren't allowed to have grills due to insurance for the apartments... So he grills out of his truck...
@pitamuffin If it is... They should stop by and say hi... I'm the one with the baby and the prius! :) (don't slash my tires... I actually liked it... but it just made me go WTF... lol... Also If you do the grilling... I'm more jealous than anything... maybe less drinking with it and offer to share? I'd buy meat to grill :P)
@thismyusername Great commercial! But what makes it especially special is the voice of the singer at the end of it. Do you know, or can you guess who that it?

Subtitled, but a damn brilliant commercial - and a WTF moment to boot. I'll try to find an embed.
Embedded:
(@tHumperChick will cry)
@Pavlov Not to someone who just lost her grandfather last month and her grandmother last January. Sorry but I'll be happy if I never see this ad again
@Foxborn My condolences. Here's hoping that it doesn't run in three's.

Most of their commercials are quite fun:
The fly in the field is genius.
@Pavlov oh it's a WTF and I think it's a good add but the one time I watched it I cried
@Pavlov Made ME cry!

Diva fish?

@sohmageek Yep, I agree, WTF???
@Teripie Someone around the block has the Darth Vader up. My husband saw it at night and asked me which neighbor put up the gorilla decoration.
@Teripie I'm sorry, did you say "only $99"?
@sohmageek So they took it down... I can believe that... but I was just like WOW it went up at all....

@sohmageek Maybe it's someone from meh, and they saw it posted here and recognized their fish and got all embarrassed.
@pitamuffin If it is... They should stop by and say hi... I'm the one with the baby and the prius! :) (don't slash my tires... I actually liked it... but it just made me go WTF... lol...

@sammydog01 They marked it down even more. Now it's only $75, down from $175.

What a deal!
As for WTF? I saw this commercial yesterday and had a major "WTF?!?"
It is awfully cute even though I had no clue what they were advertising.
@Teripie prime... they are advertising prime... here is another pet theme...
@thismyusername It has always made me joke in certain circles - if it is so damn prime, why the need to advertise it? Shouldn't it sell itself?
@Pavlov they are trying to prime the wallet to get the cash flowing? :)
@Teripie That was soooo cute! Love it!!!
@thismyusername Great commercial! But what makes it especially special is the voice of the singer at the end of it. Do you know, or can you guess who that it?
@Teripie It is Lee Marvin, believe it or not...
@thismyusername Yup! I recognized it right off, but I think the musical bridge was a big hint if you've seen the movie.
Here's one from England.......I think.
@Teripie I love this one!!
My new Christmas WTF . . .
@Pavlov on the same theme
@thismyusername what . . . the . . . . that's AWESOME!!
