Author Topic: Cialis for Daily Use Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 09-11-2010 05:25 AM                        OK, my mom sent me to college, but I am still trying to figure out this commercial -- maybe someone can explain it to me. These two older folks are evidently in heat, but alas, our hero can't get it up any more. Evidently he's tried regular Cialis -- presumably the kind you take just when you think you are actually going to get lucky, but now it seems his spouse gets quite randy (do women actually get randy?) at any time of the day or night and she might just want it, like when the kitchen counter top starts leaking a torent of water and suddenly turns into a gushing brook (ad agency on crack?). Cialas For Daily Use, we are told, is the answer to this spur-of-the-moment horniness, as it allows our hero to "perform" when she just can't wait for him to take the pill. Of course there is are those sticky problems -- like that Cialis For Daily Use could make it so that he can't see or hear her and he could come down with a backache (that's no fun when you are trying to get it on) plus a headache (isn't that the woman's excuse?) or that pesky serious drop in blood pressure if drink alcohol. But putting all that and the possible damage that a freakin four hour erection will cause aside, can someone tell me what the ad agency was thinking when it has these two love birds winding up in two separate bathtubs....in the middle of that instant kitchen-turned-running-brook? WTF? I mean, I would understand if they had them getting romantic in a SINGLE tub -- but two? How stupid is that? So what are they trying to say at the end of that commercial? Inquiring minds want to know.  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 09-11-2010 07:08 AM                     Just think if he took Extenze also he would be an old sex addict with a huge dick, with the risk of serious health problems.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-11-2010 12:28 PM                        And here I thought this thread was going to be one of those "Have you ever tried..." kind of threads.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-11-2010 02:54 PM                     And, what about this disclaimer, "Call your doctor if you have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours." ?? Most guys who had an erection for 4 hours would be calling the National Enquirer!  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 09-11-2010 03:58 PM                     quote: Most guys who had an erection for 4 hours would be calling the National Enquirer!

I love how those commercials always tip-toe around the semantic to avoid offending anyone..call it what it is.. A BONER PILL!!! In general I always mute the sound on ALL medical commercials..I get tired of hearing the same old disclaimers and the side effects which are often worse than the condition the pill is supposed to cure.  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 09-12-2010 08:24 PM                        As long as we are talking about wonder drugs and their side effects, let me recant, word for word, what one of the anti-depression drug commercial lists as the possible side-effects for the drug SeroquelXR. Mind you, these are not ALL of wonderful things that can happen to you if you take this thing -- they tell you to go to their website if you want to get the complete laundry list of side-effect available to you if you take this little pill: Call your doctor if you have changes in mood or behavior, especially if you have thoughts of suicide; elderly patients taking SeroquelXR have an increased risk of DEATH. Call your doctor if you have fever, stiff muscles or confusion and this may be a life-threatening reaction, or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements as these may become permanent. High blood sugar has been reported with SeroquelXR and can lead to COMA or DEATH. Your doctor should check for cataracts. Other risks include a decrease in white blood cells which can be FATAL; seizures, increased cholesterol, weigh gain, dizziness on standing, impaired judgement and trouble swallowing. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. I'll say! And this drug, BTW, is FDA approved. Yet they ban medicinal canibis for people with cancer pain. Indeed we are insane, and there doesn't seem to be a drug for it.  |  IP: Logged Caleb Johnstone-Cowan Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 593 From: London, UK Registered: Mar 2006 posted 09-12-2010 08:29 PM                     We don't have adverts for prescription medicine to the same extent in the UK and it's just plain weird the first time you see one on US TV with all the disclaimers. That Cialis advert is ridiculous. My guess is having the couple in the same bathtub was too erotic for a network commercial so they had to compromise. I like the couple who are out hiking in the desert best, surely it's far too hot to have sex out there and especially when using a pill?  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-12-2010 09:34 PM                     I believe there is a law that says you can't advertise what disease or condition a drug is supposed to treat unless you also list all the side effects. This leads to one of two things: Either the announcer starts talking really, really fast, reading a whole long list of side effects, hoping you don't remember all the crap he just blabbered or else you'll see these really vague commercials that simply say, "Ask your doctor if Fuckitol is right for you."  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-12-2010 09:50 PM                     only 4 hours  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 09-13-2010 08:46 AM                        See Alice?

They show a kick ass model, then at the end you have 1 second to read the fine print which says model shown was $50,000, the one that they advertise the low payments in the commercial is the base price that you probably couldn't buy.  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 09-13-2010 01:00 PM                        I don't know why they need to have the announcer say all that fast legal stuff; it all is translatable into one sentence: "Everything we just said in the preceding is either a half-true or an outright effin lie" and that would pretty much cover it. quote: Louis Bornwasser See Alice?

And advertising super low payments as being "Get [X] for as little as $200 per month" is bullshit... they can always go lower. They simply increase the length of the loan. Sure, there's a point where they decide not to keep on increasing loan length and decreasing payment since someone who can only afford $10 per month will have a good chance of finding himself having $0 next month.  |  IP: Logged Ian Parfrey Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1049 From: Imbil Australia 26 deg 27' 42.66" S 152 deg 42' 23.40" E Registered: Feb 2009 posted 09-14-2010 04:21 AM                     All very good reasons to not watch television - commercial or otherwise.  |  IP: Logged
