Have you been to the movies lately? If you have, perhaps you have had the pleasure of seeing the new Coca-Cola commercial before the movie. (Side rant here. Why the hell am I watching commercials before a movie that I paid hard earned cash for? Something just isn't right with that concept.) Anyway, back to my point before I forget what the hell I was talking about. Damn it, I'm forgetting it already.
Oh wait, okay. Back to the point now. There is this new commercial where this guy builds a time machine and travels back in time to share is Coke with interesting people from the past. It is basically some guy narrating slides that appeared on the screen. That is the boring part. The funny part goes like this.
E: (Leans over to me and in a serious tone says) "The time machine look like a penis."
Me: "My god, your right. Actually, It looks more like a toy from your drawer."
I don't think she found that joke as funny as I did. And just to make it clear. IT WAS A JOKE. But damn it, the time machine was a giant metallic penis (not just the penis, but the testicles as well). Then it was obvious. Almost all of the slides had some form of phallic image. Then the final image appeared on the screen. A giant Coke bottle (not as phallic as the time machine, but phallic enough). Was this some form of perverted joke that slipped through the executives at Coke? My hope is that this time machine image was created by someone inside the company that is tired of "the Man" and decided to stick it to him from the inside.
On a side rant (again), Do I need to get the permission of people I use in my blog? Interesting situation. Not that I think "E" would ever sue me, but I have mentioned other people on this site as well. If I place a prior conversation on this site and someone objects, could they sue me? I'm no lawyer, but screw them if they try. The joke would be on them, because I'm as broke as a hand dryer in a public restroom.
