Back during the turn of the century, Budweiser had a successful line of commercials with men going, “Wassup.”
After 18 years, the sound that was funny at first and annoying after a week, is back during the Coronavirus to remind us to check in with our friends and family to find out wassup with them.
This way, when we call and scream that in their ears, they will honor social distancing by not see us in a while. Want people to stay away from you, then just yell wassup at them. If you say it to me, I will have no problem staying more than 6′ away from you.

One of my favorite Heavy Metal songs from the ’80s is Round and Round by Ratt. I can listen to that song over and over again as it goes round and round on the record player. Does anyone still have one of those?
As we ponder that, I have also wondered whatever happed to the band. Well, it turns out they are still around and touring. Well, when bands will be able to tour again. Which someone predicted won’t be until the fall of 2021.
Anyways back to Ratt, they need to make money some way, so how are they going to do it? They are going to do a commercial for Geico Insurance. Talk about a great insurance policy. Do you think they get free insurance for doing the advertisement?
Once again, back to the Stephan Percy, Juan Croucier, Peter Holmes, and Jordan Ziff, they can still rock out like it is 1984—the good old days when we could leave our houses and go to concerts.

When you think of Jason Momoa, you think of him as a good-looking, muscular man with gorgeous long thick curly hair you want to run your fingers through. Well, it is all fake. In fact, so much so, he is more plastic than the Real Housewives.
The beefcake revealed that he wears lifts to make him look taller, foam rubber arms and chest to give him muscles, and a wig to cover up his balding crown. Even without all of that, I would still help him lift up his 10-pound dumbbell.
What wasn’t dumb was Rocket Mortgage blowing at least $5 million to air that commercial during the Super Bowl because it is as perfect as the lead himself. I don’t have a house and I want to take out a mortgage with them. That is what commercials are supposed to do. At least that is what my advertising teachers told me when I was in college. After telling me, I would never make it in advertising.
Last week, Planters killed off Mr. Peanut and yesterday during the Super Bowl they buried him. By some miracle, the tears of his friends, over his grave, were enough to resurrect the mascot. It was not enough to restore him to his former self. Instead, the 104-year-old icon returned as baby, and we are nuts over him.
How long will he stay that way? As long as it works. When people are on to the next baby whatever he will be back to his old state. I mean who wants to see awkward Teenage Peanut with braces and zits?

It has been almost 27 years since Bill Murray was stuck in endless Groundhog’s Day loop. Sadly, he is still stuck in it. However, after all of that time, he made a new friend, the groundhog, and he got the new Jeep Gladiator. That is the only thing that keeps him going as he lives the same day over and over and over and over again.
Bravo to the people who came up with this advertisement. This is what Super Bowl ads are supposed to be. The best commercials of the year.
