So Everyone Thinks I'm Weird For Liking This Commercial


Put this up on the fan page last night because no one checks the fan page and you wouldn't believe how much backlash I received. For a page that is similar to a barren, lifeless wasteland, this video caused quite a stir.

So last night, it got a little late and I was watching some NFL highlights. You know the standard stuff like crazy runs and big hits. As much as I love some quality jukes, concussions, and embarrassing endzone dances, I was looking for a change of pace. That's where the Drew Brees taking care of his son Vicks commercial comes in. Shit popped up in the "related videos" section out of nowehere. There's no reason this commercial should pop up alongside a "DeSean Jackson gets a concussion" video, but alas, it did. And I watched and watched and watched. I don't know what happened, but it quickly became the cutest video I've ever seen. I don't even like to use the word "cute" because I'm hard as fuck, but sometimes you have to give credit where credit's due. Mix a crying son, an off-duty Super Bowl QB, and some Vapo-Rub and you're going to have Dub Jeezy making wild claims about how "fatherhood doesn't seem like a terrible idea anymore" and "I propose to be a better person." But all it takes is some asshole friends and Facebook fans to really put me back in my place. No reason I should I have watched this video that many times.

On a similar but different note, Vicks Vapo-Rub fucking sucked. Made me disoriented and my eyes watered literally the entire time. Mom used to leave it in the medicine cabinet, so whenever I sneezed I applied roughly half the container to my chest, upper lip, and cheeks for good measure. Plus, I definitely tried to eat some. That shit came out when I was like 11. 11 is WAY to old to consider eating Vapo-Rub.

    sometimes i question who reads this blog and clicks "unfunny" on things. i'm sure Dub puts it up for constructive criticism, but come on. this shit was hysterical and I, for one, am offended someone can click "unfunny" on tthis.
