People are FATTER now because they don't exercise anymore. When I was young, we WALKED about 1/2 mile to school and back! In all kinds of weather, too! If we wanted a soda, we WALKED to the neighborhood American owned convenience (Not a foreigner owned Quickiemart) store. During summer vacations we played outside all day, running, bike riding, BB rifle safaris, football, baseball, NOT sitting inside an airconditioned, fully automated house of the future, incessantly playing computer games. Nowadays, people drive everywhere, even to the corner mailbox. People these days are nothing but a bunch of legal aged soiled and spoiled, helpless children who can't think or care for themselves, totally lacking any shred of common sense. They have all been brainwashed with today's philosophy of: You are not responsible for any of your actions, Its always someone else's fault, its only illegal if you get caught, if caught, accuse your accuser, and the big one, why work? the government will give you everything.
Now back to the main topic. Here in South Texas, a few years ago Quizno's ( a Subway-type sandwich shop),
had a commercial with some sort of singing puppet that looked like a mangey rat, which gave one the impression that either their eateries were rat infested or made out of rat meat. The commercial disappeared after about a month.
As for local comm, here we have an eyeglass store, called My Econo Optical, whose owner makes commercials dressed in gaudy, pastel colored leisure suits compete with color matching fedora/panama hybrid hats, festooned with cheesey looking gold anchor chains, necklaces, earrings and multiple rings on each finger. All this makes him look like some 1970's disco era, non-minority super pimp. Makes it hard to decide if he's only selling eyeglasses or cheap looking gang/rap/pimp related gold jewelry. He also happens to be the most expensive eyeglass shop in town, which is ridiculous, as a majority of his clients are social security pensioners or public assistance dependents, who falsely believe the REAL eyeglass shops are too expensive.
