people in boner pill ads never have sex either...they just sit in matching side-by-side bathtubs and hold hands.

Some of them have beards, some have stubble, but no clean-faced men. What's that all about?

That mystifies me. Does one need to find a bathroom for . . . what? To take the Cialis? Deal with the result of taking the Cialis (bathrooms aren't really romantic interlude kind of places)? I'm not sure what the good people who bring Cialis to society mean by that.

Older guy problems. I'm not there yet, but it probably won't be long.

I mean, a LOT. Like, looking right at them and stuff.


Never noticed the lack of purses...

Looking at those ads just makes me realize I don't need what they're selling...

But I was kind of hoping for one of the Viagra ladies. The African-American woman. Or the one with the British accent. I'm not picky...

and he sits there (unknowingly) open mouthed looking at the Viagra models, that she doesn't come with the prescription. Why do all the men in those ads have younger female partners?

and never have. It's what nicely tailored cargo pants were invented for.

I have eight pockets to store all of my things in, and I carry a lot of crap around.

Hell, people tend to hand me shit to stow away in my pockets when shopping. (not shoplifting, things like hold my keys, here are my sunglasses, can you hold my cellphone)

I'm a pretty handy person to have around, I guess.

Have you ever looked at what Duluth Trading has to offer? I have some of their work pants, and love the pocket-flap design, where it's got velcro to hold it flat on the inside of the pocket (like when you're carrying tools or gloves and need the flap out of the way.) They're great pockets for gadgets

I saw a Viagra ad one time where the caption says "See our ad in Golf Magazine." What are they trying to tell us? That all male golfers suffer from erectile dysfunction?

They used to have women wearing wedding bands. The men either didn't wear wedding bands, or you couldn't see their hands so you could tell.

Now they started making commercials where both parties have on a wedding band.

Interesting sociological observation.

I still have not figured out how you can get horny folding laundry. Or being at a concert in a public place. Shaking my head.
