Wierd Or Inappropriate Product Promotions

[VeeJay]

Back in the 90's I was in Purchasing and bought, among other things, adult and infant nutritionals (Ensure, Isomil, Similac, etc.) Isomil launched a new product and my sales rep comes schlepping in with a few cans of a new product in a nifty little gym bag. There was a luggage tag and on one side of the gym bag - it had a logo of sorts. It looked kind of like a seal with curved wheat stalks on the sides in a circular, near-oval shape, and with the letters "DF" in big Roman type in the middle. The DF stood for "Diarrhea Formula."

Several people asked me at Bally's, or wherever, what the "DF" stood for and, their not knowing what my ocupation was, when I said "Diarrhea Formula" I got some real strange looks.

Thank you?

Is that Winona Ryder on the front of that?

...and by "that" I mean the bag of POO, which she is definitely not. :D

In the words of wayne and garth - Winona Ryder is supremely poke-worthy.

Wasn't there something called Nads Hair Removal?

There is a spa in Muskogee that for some reason or other constantly advertises on the Tulsa Sports Animal. The basic gist of their ads is that men think spas are gay, but you should come here anyway.

I bought Coon Cheese yesterday, because I've never tried Coon cheese.

I don't think it really was raccoon cheese at all. But it was still good on a slice of bread.

I thought about posting this one. When my wife's aunt passed away three years ago, this is where the viewings were. Of course, you have to say it with a Western NY accent too, though.

My relatives that live up there always refer to it using the unfortunate pronunciation, so I don't even know how it's really supposed to be pronunced.

Ah-mig-o-nee?

[Boomer_Sooner_sax]

I think they pronounced it with the short i, so Ah-mig-on...I hope that made sense.

There's other ads on the Tulsa Sports Animal? The only ones I hear are the ones from Desert Rose Collision, where they can fix a-neeeeee-thing.

Yeah, that makes sense.

The short-lived "restore your manhood" Hummer commercial has to be near the top of this list.
