again....."

Is that Captain Burt Bachabeefheart or what!?!?!?

WTF!?!?!?!?

[Writer]

1. WTF!?!?!?!? is right.

:wtf:

[darkstar]

3. Not sure if you mean me or the goofy jingle

If you meant me and what the hell I'm talkin' 'bout. If so, it's one of several current GEICO radio spots, this one featuring Burt Bacharach singing those very words. I've heard it so many times it's driving me crazy. Maybe it's limited markets or sumpthing?

5. Oh! Now I feel like a slouch.

I haven't seen this ad, but then all the television I've watched recently was recorded stuff on my DVR (FF past commercials - yay!) I'll keep an eye out for it, though.

[darkstar]

6. No slouching on yr part

I imagine it's a radio spot only. I hear it at least 3-4 times a day it seems, and have now for 3-4 months....

:hi:

[SOteric]

2. Oh man, I Looooovvvve that commercial!

It's a riot.

[darkstar]

4. I find it a tad disturbo

But maybe it's only upon the millionth listen, not so much the content...

:hi:

[SOteric]

7. I dunno, I've only seen it about a half-dozen times or so.

Most of the adverts they run in this market are the caveman ads, or the "Movie Announcer Guy," "Vern Troyer" and the one with What's-his-face, -James Arness's younger brother.

8. Oh, it's a TV ad?

I've only heard it on the radio. Hmmm. Are Burt and the woman telling he story just sitting there in the same room doing their thing?

[SOteric]

11. It's a series of tv ads,

and in the series, Geico has a real, non-actor person who was in some sort of accident tell about their incident. Then a professional acts as "interpreter" for the non-acting person. This one has a woman seated in the room, Bacharach behind her seated at the piano. She speaks, then he thinks for a second and tinkles the ivories. The expressions on both their faces are priceless.

12. Peter Graves

They are all very humorous.

[trof]

9. I don't get the one with the midget. AT ALL.

Not funny, just :shrug:

[darkstar]

10. Mind tending this thread while I go workout, run errands?

I want to see this sucker a flamin' when I get back.

Failure is not an option. Flame on.

:hi:

[trof]

13. Gee, I've never been asked to thread-sit before.

Do you have a number where you can be reached in case I need you?
Is there anything in the fridge you want me to stay out of?
Is it OK if my girlfriend comes over?
Have fun and don't worry about anything.
:hi:
