Weirdest Ad Slogan Ever?
"Some bureaucrats shred documents. I shred cheese!" That line is delivered by a Dominos spokesman, pitching their new American Legends pizza, from an Oval Office set. The whole thing is deliberately corny and absurd, and I get that, but it just doesn't make any sense. And it seems weirdly out of synch with the gravity of the political season.
On the other hand, I saw the ad during an airing of an NCIS re-run. So perhaps realism isn't the point? All of which reminds me that I really do need to do my long-promised post on feds on TV sometime soon.
