Exam Stuff

July 14, 2006 · 19 Comments

Nothing of note has happened so I don’t have a clever post to share.

Instead I’ll ask see if you guys remember any of these popular products slogans:
Oh, keep your eyes on your own papers! (the standard pre-exam drill) The winner gets to say “I’m The Winner!”

Name That Product! Based on the clue given identify the product.
1. Underwear That’s Fun to Wear.
2. I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.
3. Where’s the beef?
4. Don’t cook tonight, call__________.
5. You knocked my block off!
6.It takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
7. Put a tiger in your tank.
8.Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, special orders don’t upset us!
9.Wouldn’t you really rather have a ____________?
10.Does she or doesn’t she?
11. A little dab’ll do ya.
12.Hand picked by Juan Valdez.
13.Come to where the flavor is.
14.We try harder.
15.We answer to a higher authority.
16.When it rains, it pours.

True to form, I’m stopping on an odd number because I’m not that excited by this entry. Maybe something interesting will happen at lunch…

    Underwear that’s fun to wear… is it underoos? I had wonder woman ones and thought I was hot stuff!

    I can’t believe I ate the whole thing… shit, I know this one!!!

    Where’s the beef… at Wendy’s

    Don’t cook tonight, call….dominos? I’m not getting any of these right, am I?

    You knocked my block off… is it rock em sock em robots??

    It takes a licking and keeps on ticking… timex?

    Put a tiger in your tank… no thanks, I still worried about that alligator I flushed six years ago!

    Hold the pickles hold the lettuce, special orders don’t upset us… that sounds like Wendy’s again

    Wouldn’t you really rather have a…. kit kat bar? Your quiz is making me feel like an idiot!

    Does she or doesn’t she? Take the pill? Have that not-so-fresh feeling? Deal smack?

    A little dab’ll do ya… I’m thinking hot sauce, or a hair styling product

    Hand picked by Juan Valdez… coffee beans, not likely. Can’t he afford to pay some one to do the grunt work for him?

    Come to where the flavor is… Marlboro Country?

    We try harder… I know it’s not the Bush administration….

    We answer to a higher authority… its got to be polygamists

    When it rains it pours… morton salt, or are you talking about my life??

    In elementary school, I was in an accelerated learning class. One day, I raised my hand, and, when the teacher called on me, I bellowed “WHERE’S THE BEEF?!” at the top of my lungs.

    They sent me to the office.

    I could not indentify a single one. This is one of the few times I have actually felt young at 22. lol

    I’m pretty disappointed in myself. I only got about half of those. I thought I watched more television than that.

    as always… Rachel,
    Your answers are funnier than the real ones!

    Charred,
    I expected nothing less from you!

    cassandra,
    Wouldn’t you really rather have a Buick – really old commercial.

    Psychobabble,
    Sure is. I like most of their commercials.

    ~d,
    I’m proud that you didn’t look before. go ahead…

    webmistress,
    I used a website for most of them. (smile)

    trebuchet,
    I remember that little girl with the deep southern accent, “and I helped” – I loved it too,

    Christine,
    It’s Wed. now and I still can’t think. See me on Friday.

    cece,
    Yes young’un. I’d probably fail a quiz on your page.

    riss,
    Stop using the bathroom during commercials from now on.
