LOL<<<---This is PaW in a state of extreme fear and nervous laughter after suffering multiple nightmares directly attributed to this commercial. Before realizing it was a 'midwife' (which is bad enough, should your nuts be getting shaved before being placed in your open hands), I thought this was spoofing some hokey religious cult, not unlike in 'Rosemary's Baby' (but maybe this one titled, 'Roger's Baby' where, yea - you guessed it - it's you in the tube and you're being handed your nuts, which accidently came off when the razor snapped and gouged you as the fat evil bitch on the right is leading everyone in the "He he who who HAHA!"-chant by 'The Evil Amish Stepford Wives' cult...)

DisapproveThis is literally the FIRST commercial that has ever woke me up and sent me running to the toilet in a cold sweat, just to drop a load...I cannot 'Hate' this commercial as I'm positive (more than ever as it JUST CAME ON AS I AM TYPING THIS!) unnatural and inhuman things will come and take me away, if I speak against it.

Shocked...I saw this one again today and swore I saw a longer version of it, if one could even imagine such a thing - and yes, I froze in chair and held my breath, along with the family faded jewels - when it becomes a matter of 'terror', it is amazing how slow time passes.
Yes, I'm now positive my first experience with this conmercial was when I was asleep with the idiot box on.

I saw it for the first time today. The talking gross razors were beyond obnoxious but this one is beyond bizarre. I purchased 10 Gillette Mach 3 blades for $20 that will last about 1 year. I'm OK.Big smile

WinkPersonally, I like the 'Dollar Shave' commercials because they are bizarre - but this one? It is so far out in 'left field' and still sends shivvers down my spine - but I still like it.
How much?
I might actually place an order.

LOL
With his feet over both sides of the tub, all I can mentally picture is that midwife reaching down and in with the razor, followed by the scream....

I like this one. A bit too much, perhaps.

My only gripe - and it's a silly one because we know how exaggeration is at the heart of advertising - is precisely who would ever let a razor get that gunked up? How do the blades even cut anything with all that slime caked on 'em?

It's no wonder, women get pissed at their man when passing a baby between the same thighs that got her preggo. OUCH!  But if you have been there to see it, it really is something you never forget.
