In all the Cialis commercials, why are couples always in tubs?

[amitten]

Every single freakin' time. For years now. In tubs.

How many times have you stared out at nature (mountains, the ocean, you name it) HAND IN HAND with your partner, side by side, in matching tubs...?!




:wtf:

[no name no slogan]

1. The first thing they do when someone ODs on heroin is to put them in the tub

maybe they've all ODd on Cialis?

[amitten]

3. Well, it does last for 36 hours. nt

[skygazer]

2. Maybe it's part of the small print

"This product must be used in conjunction with a warm bath." :shrug:

[Fenris]

4. Probably due to his priapism and her soreness.

[Reverend_Smitty]

5. ROFL!!

:spray: Finally an answer that makes sense to me!

[pokerfan]

14. Yeah, hers is hot water; his is full of ice.

[amitten]

17. And there they are, by God--in all their tub-encased glory.

Can't you just feel the crazy sex vibes a poppin'?

And, whatever happened to Jacuzzis...?

[amitten]

6. You're probably right.

My God, these poor people are screwing themselves into misery!

(cue the tubs)

[Connonym]

7. because sex is dirty

:evilgrin: which is why it's so much fun

[Pierre.Suave]

8. A better question is

why separate tubs? have I been doing something wrong all these years? I thought it was supposed to be done in the same tub...:shrug:

[amitten]

9. No. SEPARATE tubs. YOU MUST USE

SEPARATE TUBS!!!!!!!!

Duh! :eyes:

[Pierre.Suave]

10. If we are going to be in separate tubs...

Why do I need her at all?

[Critters2]

12. That's always been my question...what's with the separate tubs?

It seems to defeat the purpose somehow.

[Bucky]

27. I think they're subtly suggesting Cialis can help him reach her from that far away

Hint: that wasn't a spigot curling over the front of her tub.

[Redstone]

11. Just a lame "hook" that the ad agency sold to the marketing people at the manufacturer.

It really IS that simple. I know; I'm in that business.

Redstone

[amitten]

13. It's a bad one. Separate tubs=sex without touching.

And who in the hell hauls bathtubs outside to bathe side-by-side in?

Who are these strange tub folk...?

[Redstone]

15. You got it, right there. As I said, it's a lame "hook."

16. I asked a Cialis sales rep that same question.

He told me that the company shot a year's worth of commercials at a time. They flew all the actors, producers, film guys, and all the other neccesary personel to a sound stage in South Africa. The lead producer saw the tubs in a prop barn, and had the crew shoot a couple of scenes using the tubs, just on the spur of the moment. Then, they ran the ads by focus groups, with all the other ads, and the tubs scored very high. Interestingly enough, Cialis has been increasing their market share with that approach, while the "Viva Viagra" ads have cost Pfizer dearly.

[amitten]

18. Proving once and for all that people are insane.

Tub-coveting crazy fools, every last one of them.

[bmbmd]

21. My wife and I have been maried thirty years.

Thirty years ago, we could fit in one tub together. Now, we need two.

[amitten]

23. At the same time...? n/t

[BlueIris]

20. Not surprised to hear that "Viva Viagra" isn't a winning ad campaign. nt

[bmbmd]

22. Especially the country singer guys.

It's one-thirty in the morning-why don't they go home?????

[BlueIris]

28. Totally. Plus, it just screams, "VIAGRA IS FOR UNSUCCESSFUL, IMPOTENT YOKELS!"

Really loudly.

[amitten]

30. No worse than tubs, IMHO. n/t

[Redstone]

36. Yes, indeed. Why the HELL are they singing about it instead of going home and

doing something with it?

You got bidness at home, boys. Go take care of it.

Redstone

[BlueIris]

19. It's meant to represent a total fantasy. Like the idea that people should use Cialis. nt

[amitten]

25. It's a pretty damn dull fantasy. It's tubs. nt

[Bucky]

24. Being in separate tubs won't do 'em much good. Unless Cialis is more potent that I thought.

As a strictly pragmatic consideration, making whoopie submerged in water tends to dilute one's natural lubricants. I strongly advise getting out of the tub when more than foreplay is at task.

[amitten]

26. Agreed. n/t

[bmbmd]

29. It does represent foreplay.

They have thirty six hours to enjoy each other.

[amitten]

31. Thirty-six hours--in tubs. n/t

[Bucky]

32. My new fetish: prune-ophilia

Sexay! It's prunalicious baby!

[amitten]

34. Yes. Those prunes look pretty post-tub to me. HOT. n/t

[Redstone]

33. And, by the way, if I have "an erection that lasts more than four hours," I'm NOT calling any

doctor; I'm having Mrs R call all of her friends and invite them over.

Redstone

[amitten]

35. Hope you can afford the water bill. n/t

[Redstone]

37. Not a problem. Those tubs would be upside-down within the first ten minutes. Then we'd proceed

to destroy the rest of the house.

Just like we did in the old days. Still do, but it's only once a week or so anymore...sigh.
