The Mucinex Talking Booger ads

[JL21]

Seriously.... has public decorum reached the level that ad companies believe that talking boogers are going to help them sell their product? And would you really trust a drug company that utilizes talking boogers in their ads?

I'm putting my foot down. Talking boogers have no place in the public consciousness.

More disturbingly--why do ad writers think that mucus is a white, urban, working-class ethnic? I half expect Marlon Brando to yell "Stelllaaaaa!!!!!!" or say "I couldah been a contendah, instead of a bum, which is what I yam."

I like the booger much better than the foot fungus. That's just nasty.

Similar to the talking stain on the shirt ad (the guy in a job interview)......that drives me bonkers!

This is a great point and I hadn't thought about the way they assigned a demographic to mucus.

What about this guy?

I think the image is blocked or something. But I see from the link name that it's Mr. Hanky.

At least the talking turd is there for humor. It'd be like if a toilet paper commercial used Mr. Hanky to endorse it.

That movie was way worse than I expected.

And that says a lot.
