That commercial's been around for at least a couple years now here in the states. I am a practicing insomniac and remember seeing it on late night TV when I was still going to college.

The Daily Show did a great parody of the name too, from a consumer advocate standpoint saying things like, "Are nads harmful?", "What happens if I accidently swallow Nads?", and the like. Good stuff.[/quote]

I was the first one to mention that glop. Australia had come up as a topic, and I had no opinion... until the next morning, when I saw that infomercial. I saw the stuff a long time before that on... crz.com or something, where a guy who saw that the label said "nontoxic" decided to try eating a jar of Nads.

[quote]I just saw something that made me laugh so I thought I'd share. My wife and I just got back from a quick jaunt to the ice cream place down the block before she left for work.

We were standing in line behind a girl around 12 to 14 years old. Here's how she placed her order:

"I'd like a single Butterfinger in a dish. And I need another single Butterfinger in a dish. And one more single Butterfinger in a dish."

I guess it didn't make me laugh so much as make me want to go smack the girl on the head.[/quote]Would you have smacked me when a friend in a bar ordered a Dos Equis, and thinking that was a good idea, I asked the waitress to make it Quatro Equis?

I would have been amused. Did the waitress get it?

Of course not. Only stupidity deserves a smack. Bad puns deserve a beer. Or death. One of the two.

[/quote]It took a moment and/or some explanation. I don't recall.

Not to be confused with the time six of us were in a Texas restaurant, each ordering a Lone Star to drink, and by the time it came around to me, I ordered a Clone Star. But at least that only involved biology, rather than advanced math.

The only problem with subtle humor aimed at most people is that it just kind of slips right past them. Even when it's not based on awful puns.

I was at my aunt and uncles at the end of last year. For some reason they have a pet guinea pig. My sister was with us and couldn't resist picking it up to play with it since she had one when she was a kid.

I looked over at her and said, "You'd better watch out. Those things are killers. They'll take out a person's jugular before you could blink."

My sister gave me the 'you're an idiot' look, but my aunt's mouth dropped open and she said "Oh no, he'd never do that. He's as gentle as could be."

She was completely serious.

If she'd said something like "Oh no, we just had his fangs removed and he's been pretty docile ever since, except for the time he ate that cat", then I'd have known she was ok.
