Things my garbage disposal has met vs. things I wish it could meet

Has met:

• An entire bag of Trader Joe's frozen peas "mistakenly" left out overnight


• Stubborn crusts from pizza slices bought at My Little Pizzeria


• A whole loaf (a whole loaf!) of burnt banana bread


• A series of unfortunate q-tips, plastic forks, and earring studs


• Suicidal chocolate chips trying to escape mousse-making sessions

Wish it could meet:

• The word "moist"


• The phrase "that's what she said"


• Ms. Sallie Mae


• My aversion to peas, frozen or otherwise


• Any movie starring Matthew Lillard


• Snuggies for dogs


• The day I that I decided I needed a Little Orphan Annie perm in 1983


• Any photo taken of me in 1983


• This commercial

I have pictures from 1983!

And you also have a garbage disposal. You know what to do, lady...

That commercial is the WORST! I was surprised last night when I happened to be watching The Jay Leno show to see a version of it appear "live" (and not as a joke). The hilarious singer from OLD SCHOOL and, more recently, THE HANGOVER, sang the Kay jingle. I can't decide which version of the commercial I dislike more...why did you have to go and do that Dan Finnery?!!

[leah]

Oh could your disposal please take that newer Kay commercial too, that stupid storm one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltA50HKyM14
Blech. I'd rather eat that bag of thawed mushy peas.

UCH UCH UCH!

You canNOT be serious (!). Must find the video... Poor Dan Finnery. Money problems, perhaps?

[atauds]

Ahh!! That Kay Jewelers commercial!!! So ridiculous!

[Anna]

I just don't have any words...haven't seen that specific Kay commercial but every one wants to make me wretch! Who actually does this cheese pouf stuff?

[mdashing]

Have to say, though, that it is a little satisfying that NONE of us--who are surely the target audience for these commercials--find them appealing...

And seriously, I bet a man wrote them.

What a creative post! Why didn't I see this when it was hot off the presses. Guess I was getting too geared up for our tweet date.

So fun meeting you but bummed all of our conversations couldn't have been more in depth. I guess a bar isn't the best place for heart to hearts. BTW, wishing you had wrestled me away from the d-bags who PRETENDED to know my husband from Chicago. Weirdos!

[mdashing]

Those boys were clearly crushing on you! I'm such a sucker; I thought they were being serious, too, otherwise I would have swooped in.

So fun to see you! Looking forward to the next one. We'll do the heart-to-heart stuff then. (-:
