Do I ever!
July 11th, 2007
DR correspondent Michael Slezak (google alert!) took the liberty of printing out this gem from his AOL inbox:
He left it sitting on my chair — conveniently, right where my ass goes. Very clever. I could have just digital-imaged it straight from a computer, but decided to photograph it directly instead for the sake of authenticity — in the form of the two slight folds below “Flush” and above “up.” Totally didn’t need to point those out for you. It’s just that I have this extraordinary work ethic and sometimes run out of ways to channel it!
I appreciate the artwork and color scheme of this ad. I do wish it didn’t make me feel like such a heifer. Because, you see, the wording “this meal” is overwhelmingly inaccurate. This grub constituted probably seven of my meals last week, or any week for that matter. So I resent the implication, Colonex. My digestive tract is way more busted than you can even fathom. But nice try.
(For their next ad, Colonex may wish to consider this concoction that Dee found in a magazine three years ago.)

oh man, you know i was thinking about colonics (sp?) last week. there was a margaret cho bit about them…. but the thought of flushing out your system seems refreshing. haha!

So you won’t be trying it then? I love flushing my colon.

jinners — it does seem refreshing. do you want to get a burger sometime?
blythe — i think this ad would be much cooler if it could morph to whatever you were eating at that exact moment, because it would invariably be something that would call for some colonex.
[cherry] — you are such a tease. need deets on the Cleanse, stat!

speaking of burgers and fries, yesterday at the l.a. bureau, in-n- out burger and ben and jerry’s catered our building’s lunch. there were free burgers (well mine was a grilled cheese, hamburger bun style - yum!), fries, soda and ice cream. at the time it was AWESOME and i felt a one up, just for a sec, to ew n.y.c. it was painful a few hours later…but i don’t know if i’m ’strong’ enough for a colonic yet…
