TWO COMMERCIALS I LOATHE, HATE, AND DESPISE.

Making It with your Burger

 A woman makes love to her hamburger--oh why be timid about it?--she is having oral sex with her burger. Her tongue shoots out a couple of times curled at the end, like a snake's as she licks, and finally takes a bite of the burger (oh, that must smart) held tightly in her hands.  aaargh!

Cats In Bondage

Two cats are bound in leather harnesses to hold them erect on their hind paws while they claw at each other.

I have no idea what these two wretched messages are selling. That's because after seeing both one time, I literally close my eyes after the "pull up" once they are aired again, so as not to have them etched on my frontal lobes. At the old Ted Bates ad agency in New York, Rosser Reeves called odious graphics or sometimes even well done dramatic or beautiful graphics, "vampire video," meaning of course that the visuals were obscuring the ad message.
