Finally found it! Back in 8th grade social studies, the teacher played us a video about puffery in alcohol ads. It included this St. Ides commercial followed by the white-bread announcer repeating the line “Makes your jimmy thicker?!”
We laughed and laughed

@bigfattyonline.bsky.social I love the MTM music, but when I’m singing along, I often insert lines from this other parody from my childhood:

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

Wow, my Samsung “smart” TV’s interface has gotten noticeably faster since I disconnected it from the internet. Amazing what happens when your TV can’t focus on spying on you anymore (it has to prioritize my button presses)

I think he fed an original statement to Copilot and prompted it to make him sound smart.
It failed, because it sucks.
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says people should move beyond calling AI 'slop'

"We need to get beyond the arguments of slop vs sophistication and develop a new equilibrium ... that accounts for humans being equipped with these new cognitive amplifier tools as we relate to each other"

I could feel the ghost of every New Orleans chef grimacing as I make the saddest red beans and rice while singing Hank Williams’ “Jambalaya”

Dear 2026,
It really won't be hard to top 2025. You don't even have to try your best.

I don’t know why, but I’m compelled to put a Thumbelina diorama in front of this restaurant

Tried to tell a lady next to me in an intersection that her gas cap was off. When I motioned to her to roll down her window, she smiled and shook her head. I absolutely get her very reasonably assumption, but it does leave me feeling odd to be misunderstood. I just had to move on and let it go.

Had one of those naps yesterday where you wake up and don’t know where you are, when you laid down, what day it is or if you’re late for work

It’s like rain right after washing your car. I told a mental health professional on Monday that I’d been free of panic attacks for months. Guess what?

WARNING: I saw a trailer for *Melania* pop up somewhere and I took 10 points of psychic damage before I could turn it off.

Real excited for this David movie. There’s always been so much attention on Burt Bacharach. Glad to see his long-time songwriting partner get some love

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).
