11/6/06, the living room of my duplex: You know what are ridiculous? Commercials for men's razors. They always feature some guy with a wicked-ripped chest shaving with the advertised razor in front of a mirror. Then, said "Average Joe" (body builder) starts feeling his jutting chin for smoothness, which is magnified to show real (computer generated) video of the razor in action. To end, Average Joe Body Builder gets a friendly hug from Average Jane Super Model. Some ads take the manliness to an entirely new level: Joe is either piloting a jet fighter or smashing two glowing orbs together to initiate nuclear fusion in a reactor. It seems that advertising executives consider men to be a bunch of idiots. Considering that these ridiculous ads sell razors, I guess we are.
