Oh, back to school. Oh, I have no words. But one good thing, I have until the first snow day before I have to watch another Wilford Brimley "Diabeetus" commercial. Seriously, it drives me insane. I thought it was just me, after all being a speech therapist I tune into these things. But as it turns out, other people are obsessed with it to!
Funky Wilford
There are many of these videos out there, some of them animated! I feel so much better.
I also found a comment out there that I feel sums it up perfectly:
strategy for selling tonz of medical supplies: get an old, righteously mustachioed Mormon most famous for waxing eloquent on the health benefits of a humble grain cereal. ensure that he mispronounces the name of the disease in a very hilarious way. then make several different versions of the commercial, and watch havok and hilarity ensue. thanks liberty medical! DIABEETUS!
Oh and Asa always told me that older people often say it that way. Well this cool grandma does not seem to think so!
What she's laughing at:
I feel so good and vindicated! I can now live in peace.
