They're Gonna Wanna Know How We Got In Here...

Now we all have little things that really get to us. Things that push our metaphorical buttons, if I may. For me, that thing is the commercials for FreeCreditReport.com with obnoxious singing man. So needless to say, I didn't know how to react when I saw this little tidbit of news.

Just when I thought they weren't going to be able to step their game up, and make them any more obnoxious, they decided to have Ed McMahon start rapping. I like to think that the meeting where this was decided went something like this:

Advertising Man 1: "So our commercials are a huge hit!"

Advertising Man 2: "But I hate them."

AM 1: "So do I! But the more obnoxious they are, the better!"

AM 1 and 2: together "Huzzah!"

Advertising Man 3: "But I feel as if we aren't reaching a broad enough audience."

Advertising Man 4: "You're right!"

AM 3: "I know I am. Wait! Let's have someone rapping!"

AM 1: "It's perfect! Lets have someone loved by all of America. Maybe a retired late night talk show sidekick!"

AM 2: "I love it!"

Advertising Woman: "I hate all of you."
