From a commercial overheard while fixing the critters’ dinner:

“Ever wish you had SONIC hearing?!”

ETA: God damn it, my memory sucks.

    Yeah - love that one.

    MuscleBaby-The-Elder always looks at me expectantly until I say “Unlike that Tactile Hearing you suffer along with now?”

    Is that the commercial selling that cheap hearing aid thing?

    Besides that idiotic statement, what amuses me is when they say that they’re “perfect for hunting.” Unless those things have an electronic sound cutoff*, it’s a damn good way for you to lose your eardrum after the 160dB pulse of your muzzle blast gets amplified another 30dB by your wanna-be hearing aid.

    That commercial still makes me laugh ’til it hurts.

    I just think of the poor dumb sonsabitches who wrote the line, proofread the ad copy, and then spoke the dialogue earnestly into a microphone, without a single one at any point in the process stopping and saying, “Hey, this line is completely boneheaded!”
