Television Commercials

There are few among us who do not find many of the television commercials we are forced to endure when we watch television annoying.  Some are more annoying than others.

What really annoys me are the ones that tell us to see their advertisement in some magazine as if we should drop what we are doing and run down to the newsstand and buy some magazine we never read in order to see their advertisement.

Others that are on my list of most offensive are the ones touting medicines and state.  “While taking this medication if you should go blind or your arm should fall of stop taking the medication and contact your doctor Ask your undertaker if this medicine is right for you.”

I make it a point to list these absurd products and forbid anyone in my family from purchasing any of them.

The ones boasting of “male enhancement” are not only disgusting but skirt right along the edge of pornography,
