OK, I really am doing my rewrite now, which is why I’m giving you this fun-filled, mostly prewritten commercials post that I’ve been saving just for an occasion such as this.  See?  I plan ahead just for you! 

This commercial is one of my favorites for the year.   I think it’s funny, even though one of our friends did the voiceover, and as we all know, voiceover is NO JOKE, dude!  The commercial, on the other hand– hilarious!  The only explanation I can find for this is that apparently this gum turns you gay.

Here’s another one that made me laugh out loud the first time I saw it. I know it’s supposed to be all edgy and stuff because it has Charlize Theron in it and she’s an Academy Award winner, but doesn’t it totally seem like one of those perfume parodies they used to do on Saturday Night Live?   Is she really walking naked down a hallway just for perfume?  Really?

Like, remember that commercial where the dog is swimming across the pool, then the guy lifts him out and they start kissing? 
Yeah, I found that one for you, just so you can do the side by side comparison.   Not entirely sure why Hulu won’t let you embed video, but here’s the link so you can check it out:

Then there’s this one, which is going on my list as "Funniest Commercial Parody of the Whole Year."  Luckily, I can embed this one, because you’re going to want to see it more than once.  Seriously, this kind of thing rekindles my childhood dream to work on Saturday Night Live:

Okay, wish me luck!  I’m heading for the novel finish line, and should have something for some of you to read by the end of the week (fingers crossed).  You know who you are.  Readers, get ready!
