Forgive me for not being able to leave Schick's new "Trim Style" bushwhacker alone, but over the weekend I got a chance to see the commercial again and this time I actually paid more attention to the visuals as I wasn't so gobsmacked over the "trim style" name. HO-LEE crap! I want to meet the ad execs who pitched this idea and the razor exec who thought it was a good idea!
Check it out here, and notice the shape-shifting BUSHES in each scene.
Oh, I see, "whatever my 'style'", eh? Yeah, I see all sorts of "trim styles" portrayed. The Sculpted Natural V, the Landing Strip, even the rarely seen Circle Muff (??). I love that they show the two girlfriends with their similar, but ultimately individual little muff cuts.
Just a couple observances: A) Where is the skanky girl who hops out of a cab and the conveniently placed topiary molts all its leaves? and B) I notice that all the little bushes start out all scraggly, branches akimbo. Wouldn't it be even better to watch a peasant-skirted, hippie girl pad her bare feet past one, you can practically smell the patchouli through the tv, and the bush she flits by gets even crazier? Now I think that's a message that cannot be denied!
So this is how it is going to go down, eh? The twilight of our great American experiment will be memorialized with Rock of Love Bus, Perez Hilton and commercials on beaver-shaping. Awesome.
This is like GOLD to me... I loved this!
