Every cologne/perfume commercial is the same (body spray doesn't count), and I want to live inside all of them.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Chris Isaak once made an entire music video length cologne commercial, complete with original score and vocal accompaniment.

Helena Christensen...  :fatty:

Assuming you mean Chris Isaak, are you really trying to compare Chris Isaak to my guy JD?

There is a new one out for Eternity starring Edward Burns and Christy Turlington.

I like the old timey commercials where doctors recommend things that are terrible for you. Especially the ones that have the voice over of a guy talking with an old timey voice.

I'm fascinated by how much the sound of voice over guys voices has changed over the years. I would be interested in watching a documentary about this.

I suspect that is because they don't smoke as many mild and good tasting camel cigarettes as they used to.
