I saw this the other night when my mom and I were watching the news. This is even grosser than all those commercials for Viagra and the like. This is just SICK!!

:rofl: what the...

thats hilarious to me LOL.

I lol'd. That part came out of nowhere.

If my grandmother were still alive, I think her head would explode watching the commercials of today. :eek:

:lol: Great commecial, it's been running for months. I don't really see the disgusting part tho. He just said pee and I doubt they use actual urine.

Ok Salt Sister, what is gross abt it? The fact they tell you how to pee on it (simulating it) or the mere fact of some female having to hold that thing while aiming their pee on it? :rofl: Because women are not like guys, we can't "aim" it just sort of flows and if one is not careful, it can get all over your fingers. :eek:

Irene, when you and Monika refer to each other as "Salt Sister", what does that mean? :confused:

Holy Cow! (lol!)

Well, I don't think they have to demonstrate how to use it (even if it was only plain water used) - I think we all know how to use it. (At least, I would hope). :lol: Not something you want to see while eating. YUCK!!

Mike, Irene and I both love salt (and salty snacks) so we started calling each other Salt Sisters months ago. Stacy (Madame X) completed the Salt Sisterhood, but she hasn't posted in ages. :(

Oh, okay. I have no idea who Madame X is though.

She posted mainly on the I Love Lucy and Little House on the Prairie boards.

That explains it. I've never been on those boards. I have never seen Little House and I hate I Love Lucy.

lol, you can pee on it too? wow!!!

Holy Cow! (lol!)

Hey Ann,

I really like your avatar; is that your cat? :lol:

Regarding the commercial; I don't see what's wrong with it.
OK, they could've left out the urine but, it's not that bad.

:rofl: Yeah, but did you see just how exact and accurate that stream of "simulated pee" was?!?! I'd love to know the woman who could pull that one off! I've heard some women that should probably be using something closer to a pingpong paddle than that stick!!! :lol:

:brent ^^^^^Cathy...Bingo! your description is so funny. That is what I meant.

I think the idea of being able to urinate on that stick is great. How was it done before? Did you have to urinate in a cup and then insert the stick in it or what? :lol:

Hey, I didn't use any pregnancy tests, I went to the doctor and found out the old-fashioned way. ;)

Nah - you always peed on the stick, but they sold them right next to the Playtex gloves and foldup raincoats at the drugstore.

O.k. - wha happened there - we're posting at the same time and the reply I quoted wasn't the one that came thru!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ohhhh, and those umbrellas too? I see. :rofl: They forgot to put eye goggles right next to those items. ;)

And don't forget the Wetnaps...

:rofl: ...and the germicide (hand sanitizer). ;)

Game - Set - Match


I don't think we can drag this out any lower than that!!! :lol:

You place the pregnancy test under your stream of urine..
So then what is so different abt this particular "new" pregnancy test? I don't get it? They make it sound like this is the new, improved way of doing it, so I was wondering, how was it done before? :crazy:

Outside of the same sort of tests for the past 20 years, and the slaughter of bunnies....nuttin new!

:rofl:

They should call this so-called "new" pregnancy test stick THE STREAMLINE. ;) That shot of water was too accurate. :lol:

Maybe THAT'S the difference - they don't show it in the ad, but it comes with a funnel and straw contraption.

Oh sh*t!!!!! :brent :rofl:

:lol: The first time i saw that commercial it made me laugh.

This was my first time seeing it here. Thanx Salt Sister! :wave: :lol: I try to avoid commercials as much as possible.

That's nowhere near the grossest commercial I've ever seen. :lol:

I don't really think it's gross but they probably could've phrased that better.:lol:

I :rofl: whenever I see this one!

That's nowhere near the grossest commercial I've ever seen. :lol:
Yeah, I'm far more bothered by Lamisil commercials. :lol: They've really toned down their commercials in the last year... but god, I hated the damn commercials! They played the same one for YEARS. :crazy: :barf:

OMG...That line is just ridiculous (the pee line). I'd hope that if you need one of those, you'd know you have to pee on it. No need to mention it. Plus, the word pee sounds so unprofessional. What a jackass marketing firm...although it is getting talked about. lol

Was that the one for toenail fungus? No, wait, that was something else. The toenail one with those little creatures in it...OMG...HIDEOUS.

That's my point. It's so crass and crude.

We can always count on you to speak your mind and not hold back, Cathy. :lol: ;)

Too bad I'm not like that in person. lol

Yeah...it starts out sounding just fine, and then like being suckerpunched, the guy tells you how easy it is to pee on. They had to have been banking on shock reaction to sell these things.

I know what you mean. You guys and gals would be so surprised at how quiet and shy I am off the boards.

Exactly. Like Tara said, once it got to the stream of water, that was the last straw. Less is more, I always say. What's wrong with leaving it to the imagination?

If and when the day ever comes that I need to use a pregnancy test - I will not buy one from these people!

I don't see what's so gross about it. It's no grosser than when they show those colorful computer graphics on the 3 "C.S.I." shows; showing a bullet going through the body and into someones heart or something.

Was that the one for toenail fungus? No, wait, that was something else. The toenail one with those little creatures in it...OMG...HIDEOUS.
oh god; I HATED those ones!!!!

Yeah, Lamisil is for nail fungus. It doesn't HAVE to be for toenails - my sis had a case of [finger]nail fungus a couple of years back, and the first medication she was prescribed didn't help, so she was prescribed Lamisil for that, and it cleared right up.

The thing about those is, even the whole lifting the nail up was painful to watch. I've had my toenail actually torn off before so I realize how much that hurts. Not a memory I need to be reminded of. :lol:

That little creepy yellow... thing... or whatever it is in that doesn't make it any easier to sit through either.

LOL - Apparently Michael J. Fox was totally grossed out by that ad too. His kids knew it and would call him into the room whenever it was on and he'd go running, screaming. He was talking about it one day on a talk show a few years back. Every time I saw it after that I thought of him.
