Deez Nutz Roastin’ on a Open Fire, Yo!

Can we kindly stop making stuff like this?

Seriously, stop trying to make Christmas gansta. Christmas is not gansta. If Run-DMC couldn’t make the holiday season dope and def, than neither can you.

The attempts to try and make Christmas stuff cool and hip goes back decades, with songs like “Jingle Bell Rock” or “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”, and those might have been considered ‘cool’ in your grandparents’ time, but nowadays they seem cornier than Iowa in summertime.

You just can’t make the whole holly-jolly thing cool.

It’s like trying to make Charlie Brown groovy, cool and fly; it can’t be done. The two sensibilities just cancel each other out, so stop it, advertisers and recording artists.

You think you look like this:

But to everyone else, you come off like this:

Ad Nausea: Lexus Xmas “Forgery” Commercial

This holiday season, Lexus has produced a series of ‘December to Remember’ spots depicting parents using their children as pawns to get Santa Claus to send them Lexuses (or is it Lexi?) for Christmas. The following ad, “Forgery”, is easily the weakest entry in the series, for reasons I’ll go into below.

“…And a puppy?

Really??

OK, two things. First, a white boy with a dog. Never saw that before. Not before noon!

“That’s right. I went there.”

Second, geez, way to drop the ball, kid. You could’ve asked for literally anything, and the only thing you demanded is a puppy? As Gomez Addams once said…

“Don’t you know all that’s gonna grow up to be is a dog??”

Like the spot says, if you’re gonna wish,wish BIG. If this kid’s going to use this here situation as leverage to get a pet, why not ask for something cool?

Like a dragon?

Or a tiger? Now, that’s worth blackmailing your parents for.

And before someone hits me with…

“That’s not realistic!”

Let me remind you that we’re talking about a universe in which Santa Claus exists and everyone knows that he exists. So if St. Nick exists in this world, it can be further conjectured that everything attached to his mythos, such as elves and flying reindeer, also exist. Therefore, it’s not far-fetched to assume that dragons also exist in this world. If you can have Santy Claus magically dropping luxury cars in front of people’s houses, then kids can keep tigers and dragons as pets.
