Commercials Which Irritate Me For One (Mostly Irrational) Reason or Another: Second of a New Ongoing Series



Viberzi

Office worker is about to go to a meeting when she realizes that her bowels are acting up, and she tells her beckoning co-worker, "Go ahead and start without me."

First off, I am pretty much completely opposed to shit-oriented commercials. It's not something I like to think about when I'm watching television (unless, you know), and I also fear that moving the line (from the old school days where women just wanted to squeeze the toilet paper to nowadays when bears talk about how they can wipe their asses so well with Brand X that they can wear their underpants for more than one day . . . or where people can Go Commando because their asses are so clean) is going to end up (no pun intended) with people shitting on television, because you know that our society does not understand the meaning of restraint or understatement.

But that's not really what bothers me about this commercial. What bothers me is that I find Irritabelle (and yes, that really is her name --unlike the President of the United States of America, I do my research), who is portrayed by actress Ilana Becker, extremely sexy. I don't know if it's the red hair, the spritely demeanor, or the flesh colored bodysuit . . . probably all of the above . . . but I have such a hard time not looking at her that I don't even know if the same actress is playing the part of the Office Worker. So you can let me know about that. But truth? She's much more attractive as the personification of Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Diarrhea. 

Now there's a sentence I never thought I'd write.

So for crimes against my libido, I curse at thee,  Viberzi
