dustin: “do you know how many people wanted your seat? specifically GIRLS. girls who i could now be sitting with?”
steve: “and what are you gonna do, you gonna woo them with this denim vest? how many times do i have to tell you? you gotta stop wearing that.”

Oh hi
I wanted to draw him, since I feel like it’s been a while. Also my style developed and I’m not working on that one series rn-so he seems less evil now.

New Coke Conspiracy 
The Coca-Cola Company's apparently sudden reversal on New Coke led to conspiracy theories, including:
The company intentionally changed the formula, hoping consumers would be upset with the company, and demand the original formula to return, which in turn would cause sales to spike. Keough, the company president, answered this speculation by saying "We're not that dumb, and we're not that smart."
The putative switch was planned all along to cover the change from sugar-sweetened Coke to much less expensive HFCS, a theory that was supposedly given credence by the apparently different taste of Coke Classic when it first hit the market (the U.S. sugar trade association took out a full-page ad lambasting Coke for using HFCS in all bottling of the old formula when it was reintroduced). In fact, Coca-Cola began allowing bottlers to remove up to half of the product's cane sugar as early as 1980, five years before the introduction of New Coke. By the time the new formula was introduced, most bottlers had already sweetened Coca-Cola entirely with HFCS.
It provided cover for the final removal of all coca derivatives from the product to placate the Drug Enforcement Administration, which was trying to eradicate the plant worldwide to combat an increase in cocaine trafficking and consumption. While Coke's executives were indeed relieved the new formula contained no coca and concerned about the long-term future of the Peruvian government-owned coca fields that supplied it in the face of increasing DEA pressure to end cultivation of the crop, according to author Mark Pendergrast there was no direct pressure from the DEA on Coca-Cola to do so. This theory was endorsed in a Time article, as well as by historian Bartow Elmore, who claims the reformulation was made in response to the escalating War on Drugs by the Reagan Administration

Snacking like a champion with my man's homemade mozzarella cheese balls and the new Spiced Coke (raspberry flavored, so not sure why it's called "Spiced" 🤷)

244. The Big List of Favorite Commercials (part 17)
Tumblr media
(part 16)
Tumblr media
1985 Velveeta Extra Thick Slices "enough for the biggest cheese appetite" TV Commercial
This commercial is kinda sickening but I love that "extra thick" voice. That plastic cheese is too thick!
Tumblr media
"Six Degrees of Separation" by John Guare at Lincoln Center Theater [1990]
"His shirt isn't bleeding! HE'S BLEEDING!"
Tumblr media
Frankie and Johnny's Furniture: See the Special Man [1989?]
[grumbling] "Let her have it!"
Tumblr media
Conan showed this old commercial from New Orleans on his show back in 2012.
Here is a news report on it.
Tumblr media
Jane Lynch Roach Control Combat Commercial 1995
Doesn't this look like a parody of a Combat commercial, and not a real combat commercial? Reminds me a lil of that SNL sketch with the roach killer that teared off their legs and then used the legs to beat the roach to death. However, this time Jane is the host of the episode.
Tumblr media
New Coke Commercial (1986)
Next time I go out this week (which let's face it will probably just be the Publix) I'm doing my makeup like this.
Tumblr media
McDonald's Filet-O-Fish - Commercial Classic 1985
This Minnie the Moocher x Filet O Fish mashup is a JAM.
Tumblr media
Kraft Singles Tennis Cards Promo - Australian Commercial
We love you and your giant packs of cheese, Pam.
Tumblr media
Little Shop of Horrors broadway play commercial 1983
Now, I've never seen Little Shop, I've only seen the parody on Family Guy of "Somewhere That's Green", and I just read the plot on wikipedia and it sounds sad. BUT but, this commercial has Marlene Danielle from Cats, pre her being with Cats through its entire original Broadway run.
Tumblr media
1986 Snuggles Poison Contol PSA
Never ever ever...touch, taste or drink...bottles and boxes under the sink? Such a clunky saying.
Tumblr media
NBC Commercial - Thank You (1986)
I discovered this one from the Jaboody Show. Yes, they obsess over how bald Dennis Franz is, and how sexy John Larroquette is. This is a shorter version, I can't find the long one where Jane Pauley says "z'thank you".
