Swiffer ads?
Does anyone understand why Swiffer ads pretends that you are worried about your broom if you use a Swiffer, but it's okay because your broom finds your rake sexy?

Both parts of that seem bizarre to me.

How that is supposed to sell swiffers is beyond me, but I guess it does because Swiffer commercials have been using a similar premise for a long time.

3. Soooo...you haven't been putting off trying Swiffer because you've been worried
about ruining your broom's love life?



BTW, doesn't that mean that whoever uses the broom now is the broom's current love interest, and is replaceably by a rake?

That is seriously messed up!

2. Advertisments are more bizarre every day.
That's in keeping with the new Idiocracy.
