Cardio Oh NO!

If there was ever a lesson that I should have learned, it would have to be to never ever buy a work-out DVD from the dollar section at Target!! Yes I know what you're thinking. First of all what was I doing even thinking that a work-out video in general was going to be good. And add to that the fact that it was a $1, it is just a combo for disaster. But I was intrigued by the simple packaging and the fact that if it sucked at least I wasn't out twenty bucks. So I put this DVD into my player and immediately saw the signs that I was in trouble. The opening is some really horrible graphics of a man with dollar signs in his eyes, straight up off of clip art! And underneath this man is the words, "Dollar Entertainment". So Dollar Entertainment produced this lovely DVD for $1. Well I won't go into details but lets just say I would have been better off spending my time watching a public access workout show. It was that bad. And I spent most of the 25 minutes laughing at the people instead of actually exerting physical energy. What a joke.

So while I'm writing I want to talk about something that makes me want to wish I never ever had ears. That Thermosilk commercial that uses Ashlee Simpson's song "la la". When I hear the first notes coming out I immediately cover my ears and change the channel. What is the deal with this song? And what does it have to do with hair products? I understand money, blah blah blah, hello, I'm a marketing major but seriously this song makes me want to self destruct. It is like 20 people scratching their nails on a chalkboard. I didn't know that I could ever have such hate associated with a song but Ashlee has sure done it for me. I'm not going to go into more about her, I'll leave well enough alone. And I'm sure not going to admit how I watch her reality show every Wednesday night!
