WNBA Video Game Is Not Fan-tastic

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

 

As hard as it is to believe that the WNBA is still in existence, even more shocking would be if somebody bothered to produce a WNBA video game. If that were ever to occur, this is a pretty good example of what we imagine the commercial for the game would be like.

 

Paul F. Tompkins: Private Fireman

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

 

The always amusing Paul F. Tompkins has teamed up with Bob Odenkirk to produce this video (read: commercial) in which Tompkins plays a Private Fireman who is ready to put out any fire that ignites within a 12 mile radius of his home (read: car). Setting aside the blatant promotion of Samsung’s newest gadget, it’s still a pretty funny video. So, thanks Samsung.

 

Banned Nike Ad

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

 

Here’s a pretty entertaining commercial that Nike made recently to promote its Hyperdunk sneakers. For some reason, they pulled the commercial before it ever aired, but like everything that gets “banned,” it’s resurfaced online for your enjoyment.

 

Clean Your Home The Racist Way

Ever wish you could get a stain out of the carpet and oppress minorities at the same time? Well, then you’re probably going to love this commercial for Pride with Bleach.

 

Chicho’s Weak Sauce

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

 

Anybody that’s ever eaten at a chain restaurant (yes, we’re looking at you Olive Garden fans) will surely be able to relate to this College Humor commercial for Chicho’s, a restaurant that prides itself on its weak sauce and lame cake.

 

The Real Baby Borrowers

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

 

NBC’s reality show The Baby Borrowers may make for excellent guilty pleasure viewing, but we’re much more interested in what goes on behind the scenes at the real Baby Borrowers - this store where the guys in Competitive Awesome are willing to sell you a used Persian or Mexican baby at a fair price.

 

Dickens Cider

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

 

Not sure why, but today seems to be creative brand name day here at the uncreatively named Comedy Feed. For example, this video from Van Roble slurps all the funny you can possibly get from a product named Dickens Cider.

 

Mister Microphone

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

 

We are so lucky to live in the Internet age and we are constantly reminded of this fact when we see examples of what people used to do to entertain themselves back in the day. For example, take this commercial for Mr. Microphone, a product which apparently allows you to talk into a microphone and have your voice come out of a handheld radio. This was apparently a big deal in 1981, and judging from this commercial it allowed you to spend hours roller skating, disco dancing, and talking to yourself through a radio you were holding in your hands.

 

Unusual 4th Of July Sale

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

 

Are you looking forward to doing a little shopping this holiday weekend and hoping to cash in on some special sales? Well, if you’re looking for a pair of assless chinos, then you’ve come to the right place.

 

Prepare To Be Creeped Out By American Apparel

Friday, June 27th, 2008

We have the crew over at Rooftop Comedy to thank/blame for this American Apparel ad parody which features a couple of spandex-wearing “models” gyrating around to some really annoying Euro dance music while only partially covering their junk.
