irritating commercial

i don't watch a whole hell of a lot of tv. mostly disney channel and nickelodeon, but every once in awhile i reclaim the tv (see yesterday's post). and there is this insanely stupid commercial that comes on, so stupid i felt the need to share it.

it's for a local tech school - you know, the place where you can graduate class of march. and there's really nothing wrong with that! it's just a joke, so get over it. moving on... this commercial is filled with people doing X-TREME SPORTS! what in the halibut does that have to do with a certified nursing assistant program, i ask you? abso-freaking-lutely nothing! do people actually look at that commercial and think to themselves "X-TREME sports ROCK! i wanna be a certified nursing assistant!" if they do, then there's probably a reason they're going to the tech school.

that reminds me of an article maddox wrote and you can find it here. if you've never read maddox's stuff, make sure you read a few more articles while you're there. you can thank me later.

i know, it always makes me giggle a little when people talk about how they were stuck in a "dead end job" until they went to the program at unnamed-tech-school. i wish they would do the follow up on what exactly a CNA (or corrections guard) does...

by the way, larry was a corrections guard... oh, i mean, OFFICER. he didn't "guard" anyone. *eyes rolling*
