But If You Want To Meet The Devil, You've Got To Go To Hell...

Morning Benders - Dammit Anna

So I sing this song to one of my friends named Anna every time I see her, and I always think I'm funny.


I spent so long searching online for a commercial I saw on TV, but alas, I could not find it. It's probably because it's for a local car dealership, and there's no reason for it to be online. But you at least need to know why it was so epic.

So it features, per the usual, a man walking through the parking lot of a car dealership, pointing at various cars and describing how wonderful they are, and why you need to buy them ("NO MONEY DOWN!!").

Then as he continues to walk, and the camera follows him, you see some random man standing behind one of the cars in the background. He turns and sees the camera, and quickly ducks behind the car, but you can still see him, because this guy sucks at hiding. You then see him try to scurry away, but he's super obvious as he ducks behind cars on his way out of the shot.

So I say to myself, "this is stupid marketing tactic. Is there some sort of price ninja?" But no, he's never mentioned. He legitimately was just randomly in the shot, and they decided not to, say, take 20 seconds and shoot it again. That's dedication.
