Just tell me who these people are advertising to right now?

I want socks. That's all. Just some socks.

1. Someone has to spend $700 billion dollars.
That would buy a few Infiniti sedans.

:evilgrin:

6. trillions
Don´t forget the $1 trillion given to the ´have mores´as a tax cut in Bush´s early days. Or the $1 trillion in Iraq war contracts. Or the $1 trillion dollars given to Big Pharma after Medicare Part B legislation. And the $700 billion is merely part of the bailout; some say the whole package should be in the trillions.

Of course, the typical Bush ´have more´is probably not in the market for something so tatty as an Infiniti Sedan.

4. Socks make a great stocking-stuffer.
Infiniti, not so much.

5. Mercedes, just Mercedes.
:puke: :(

I miss Janis Joplin. :cry:

"Mercedes Benz"

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?
I’m counting on you, Lord, please don’t let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?

Everybody!
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

7. Infiniti...Lexus...Hummer. All expensive car ads, all the time.
People living in the million dollar monstrosities. If I ever gave my wife an expensive car for Christmas, she's divorce me and suggest I go to the loony bin!

I fear we've crossed too many lines and have lost our country for good.

11. I know I am!
Edited on Sat Dec-13-08 09:13 AM by Tandalayo_Scheisskop
I ordered a whole car carrier ship full of them, in assorted festive colors. I plan on giving them to all my friends, with the trunks stuffed with hundred dollar bills from my vast fortune.

When I run out of friends, I am going to accost strangers on the street and force the remainder upon them.

Merry Christmas, dammit!

On edit: I then plan on snorting 12" Texas Gag Rails of Beluga Caviar.

14. I always hated commercials where the couple would look out the window
and see a brand-new luxury car with a bow on it.

"Oh, honey. You shouldn't have."

"Anything for you, dear."

"So you'll be picking up the 20% down payment and $450/month payments over the next six years, right?"

"Anything for you, dear."

"Good. Don't forget my birthday is coming soon."

21. I like the commercial where the couple gives a brand new Lexus to their college aged daughter for
Christmas. I'm sure she won't grow up to be spoiled though.
