Thumbs down Speed Stick Pro commercial

Sign in to disble this ad
This is a bit random, but i will rant anyways.

So i was eating my breakfast this morning, when this Speed Stick Pro commercial comes on...

They ask "Whats your pit type?"

"Sweaty?"

"Hairy?"

"Sensitive?"

Seriously, is anyone else really put off by hearing about some dude's sweaty and hairy armpits at 7 in the morning?

Is this supposed to make me want to buy thier deodorant? It's certainly giving me the opposite effect...

Hearing about sweaty, hairy, sensitive things always makes me want to throw my money at products I don't need.

I'm so confused. What does kimchi have to do with armpits? What's going on with that wine bottle, and why do I find the salt and pepper shakers so enticing?

Yeah, but now that I look at it, I'm sure that's some kind metaphor too.
