I like a lot of the Skittles commercials, they're just weird as hell and that makes them funny. Saw one the other day where a guy walks into sort sort of farm milking plant and there sits a guy with 6 of machines they use to milk cows (don't know what to call them) hooked up to his chest & stomach and it's milking him. I kind of laughed at it, but it made me feel awkward seeing it. Anyone else weirded out by this commercial?

I dunno. Sour milk isn't exactly the thing I want to be thinking of when I buy candy.

thinking of sour milk is better then thinking of a man hooked up to a milking machine hhehe. the commercial got me talking about it, but I don't see how seeing that is supposed to make me want to run out and get some sour skittles

This commericial made me decide to never buy Skittles again. I don't reward companies for putting out repulsive advertising.

I haven't eaten skittles in years and that ad is definitely not making me want to run out to buy some.
