Who else watched the Super Bowl? Yeah, I have a brother, so obviously, I did. My dad and Bro were totally rooting for the Saints. My brother was doing so because the Saints were undefeated all season and were a good team who were coached very well and came from a great city. Black and gold, baby! My dad was doing so because he liked the name “Saints” better than what you call little horsies.

Anyway, who else saw the Super Bowl ads? And was bowled over by the rampant, glaring misogyny?
My pal Ray Beckerman said that he had to figure that the Superbowl ads in question were dreamt up by yuppie men who thought they were superior to the men they THOUGHT they were targeting. An interesting take.
I would write a whole long thing and yell and flick spittle on my screen and then pause to take my heartburn medication (because the anger would have aged me prematurely) but I don’t want to do that. I’m watching American Dad, I’m eating a bunch of fresh, chocolate covered strawberries, I’m wearing my fuzzy pink bathrobe backwards (yes, like a goddamn Snuggie), and it’s just too nice a night to ruin with galloping, spittle-flicking anger.
Also, Jezebel already put something up, so anything I did would just be overkill. Click the picture to head on over.
