The Wonderfullest Rag

Always.com

A new commercial for Always pads has a young woman's voice softly intoning: "A soft, comfy topsheet on every Always pad? Mmmm.... Dreamy." Then the little pad has its topsheet folded back as if it were a bedsheet.

WHAT?!? WTF?!?!??

I can't imagine WHY the people at Procter & Gamble think that this makes a good advertisement. Jeez louise! It's just a sanitary napkin! There's nothing you could make it out of that would make it that wonderful.

This commercial is the winner of the current crop of the stupidest, most aggravating TV ads. What could this turn into? "Gee, the hemorroid cream I put on my painful, blistered hiney is so silky and nice-smelling... Mmmm."

I predict in the future that sanitary napkins will be printed with pictures of landscape scenery. And maybe it will play a little tune when you remove it.

THEN we'll finally be happy.

    They're sure giving their HYGIENE NAPKIN a lot of credit, here.
