Um, no.

I heard a car commercial on the radio today that included something like this:

"Prices for 2009 models have only gone up about $300! That's like a whole year of driving, FREE!"

Right! In the same way that . . . uh . . . kissing an alligator is like playing drums in a boy band!

Commercials like these make me want to track down the people who wrote them and sharpen my teeth on their faces.

Anyone else have any great comparisons to make?

How about:

Being in the same room with Carmen last night was like sleeping.

Harumph.

Anyway, I'm not sure how car prices going up $300 is in any way like driving for a year free.

Regis and I tried to puzzle it out yesterday but couldn't think of any way they could logically make that claim. It's just a stupid thing to say.

Poor Amber. If only that logic worked, you'd feel rested.
