It has always been my contention that the worst and stupidest commercials ever are actually examples of pure marketing genius. Why? Because what is the one thing that you remember most after watching some ridiculous ad on television? Other than the stupid commercial itself, you seem to never forget the brand product or service it advertises. And isn't this quite simply one of the fundamentals of marketing? To torpedo brand recognition into our gullible brain matter? Yes, maam.
And here's a grrrrrrrrrreat example. When I saw this shit for the first time I laughed so hard the beer came back up! Of course being drunk off my ass probably had something to do with it. But, seriously. This commercial rules at midnight!
Oh, you like that shit, huh? Well here's some more!
Vern Fonk fucking rules. Masters of marketing, but I don't know squat about their insurance, except a job of savings. You know what that means?
SHIPOOPI! DANCE!

LMFAO
I saw one of these by accident the other day.
Good shit.
Oh my God! Shapoopi! That is embarrassing! I thought it was the evergreen state's little secret since they run those spots so late at night. Those are old ads. The new ones are equally awful. Did Paul turn you onto that?
Buddy Hackett embarrassed himself with it long before this guy, Peggy...
Deadman - Yes, now that you mention it, I recall that! It's the whole Honk for Fonk package that gets to me, though. Ack, he's annoying!
D.C. clowns ..eat your tiny little hearts out!
Well, whodathunk it? You can buy Vern Fonk shirts and stuff. He's gone viral.
Is Cal Worthington still around, btw?
lol I remember cal.
I think he rode a steer in his commericals.
Buddy Hackett..he had a damn fine gun collection. most of it was sold off at the gun shows about 5 years ago.
PeggyU, ROFL! I knew you'd pipe in on this post.
