Things I noticed this week and i bet you did too




Just when you thought at&t couldn't get crushed by verizon anymore, they figure why let verizon crush us, let's commit commercial suicide and set our underpants on fire. They get a washed up actor who has to make a buck, and what do you get: a jarringly heavy Luke Wilson doing AT&T ads and looking like he finally gave up on "Old School 2."

Best Idea for a Theme Party: Jersey Shore meets Wolfman-pants optional

My complete and total lack of excitement regarding every one of NBC's Winter Olympics ads (Conan and Leno should compete against each other in a biathlon to boost ratings)

This would be a funny top-10 list: "Top 10 Most Likely Counter-Programming Choices Geared Toward Women On a Sunday When Everyone Else is Watching an NFL Playoff Game

Damn you Harrison Ford, Damn you. Did you know that "The Fugitive" got 4 stars? Saw it on AMC-four big ones...and now this?:
Commercials for the Harrison Ford/Brendan Fraser movie, "Extraordinary Measures." Every 3 minutes or so, commercials would run the trailer, and at some point, Fraser and Ford would have this exchange:

Fraser: "We can do this if we push ourselves, if we work around the clock"
Ford: "I ALREADY WORK AROUND THE CLOCK!!!!"
Best line ever. idiot.

Hey Phone, quit telling people to "duck off"

Weekend, Go Steelers! o wait. Go Broncos! o, right. I'll be rooting for the punters and kickers to blow the entire season with one kick and inevitably get their coaches fired-or see their leg completely hyperextend itself and a kneecap pop out.
