Woooow...just wow. Did that really air on national TV? Can't be...it's just too obvious.

Watching that commercial makes you think about the actors involved. I wonder how much money that guy got paid to make a REALLY OBVIOUS trying-desparately-to-suck-the-weiner commercial?

They should have had a girl doing it. That would be funny.

See, but that's what pisses me off. If they had a girl doing it, with the EXACT same commercial, the FCC and whoever would be all over it like flies on shit. :rolleyes: Maybe it's just my Heterosexual self talking, but with a chick it would still be improper for TV, but it would be FUNNY. With a dude, it's just...wrong. I hope the actor got paid a sufficient sum of coin b/c this ad will live on in the intarwebz forever.

Young child: Um, DAD? Why is there this video of you trying to suck a phallus?

Dad: No, no, no! It was an antacid commercial! Hahahah! I was trying to show how foods I couldn't eat try to "stay away from me"...Um...so that I couldn't/shouldn't eat them.

Young child: Dad...you like men, don't you?

Wow...REALLY uncomfortable!

I hate watching people with food on their face and find it uncomfortable to watch.

Corn dogs and egg rolls aren't the first foods I think of in association with heartburn.

Why do you have to find something sexual in everything?

Next thing you know, you will claim that your high school yearbook has child porn in it!

What does moving food have to do with heartburn? WTF? Totally irrelevant.

I don't remember the girl covering the bear's eyes in the TV version, also I don't remember the guy fighting with his weiner so hard. This may be the full length and the actual tv ad may be cut.

Still surprising it made it to air. During a commercial break on the History Channel none the less (where I saw it anyways). Mind is still boggled.

If you are popping Tums all the time or have some sort of acid reflux issue, don't you think just avoiding foods that cause stomach distress would be a better idea?

Oh, wait! I forgot, Americans don't like people telling them what they can or cannot eat. :\

What is the point of this ad? Weird moving corn dog. Looks similar to dude sucking dick and getting cream all over his mouth, i.e., totally disgusting.

The only way this ad ties into Tums is that he gets some heartburn at the end. Who thought of this shit?

I'm allergic to peanuts. I demand the entire country bend to my will because I am the center of the known universe.

Making an add about sucking dick is why everyone knows this ad exists and that it's a TUMS ad made by TUMS so you buy TUMS. Go out and buy TUMS right now.

So, I am sitting here watching the commercials, reading the comments and thinking to myself, "Self, when was the last time that I actually smacked someone with my dong like that? In fact, which woman has ever mentioned to me that they were ever smacked like that in the face by anyone's weiner? Hmm, I'm gonna go with 'never'."

Am I the only one that didn't find the ads to be particularly offensive. It's "food that's fighting you". Sure, there is some sexual connotation there, but you're only gonna see that if you're looking for it. In fact, granny/eggroll..... I don't even see any sexual connotation.

You guy's need to spend less time surfing for porn and more time in the real world.

Maybe all this guys seeing it as a sexual reference are having flashbacks to when their own uncle diddled them as a child.
