2. Why did they change that commercial...
...from "gellin' like a felon" (which is what they USED to say) to "gellin' like Magellan?"

Huh? "Gellin' like Magellan!?!?" That makes no sense.

Not that "gellin' like a felon" makes any sense either, but at least it reflects a popular cultural expression that people might actually say.

What the hell does "gellin' like Magellan" mean? You could walk round the world in these shoes and still be in a good mood?

I don't get it.

4. The Ditech guy is a friend of mine.
Seriously. He's a GREAT guy.

(Not the weasly "I lost another loan to Ditech" guy, but the white-haired spokesman type guy).

6. I have no idea.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing the weasly guy gone.

Everytime my buddy the spokesperson comes on, though, I can hear his bank account getting bigger. :)
