URINE GONE


I know this is very 80's, but with the crappy service on airlines killing even "peanut" jokes, I think we need to make fun of commercials a bit more.
So at the Burpee's the other day I saw the greatest commercial I've ever seen. It is for a revolutionary product called "URINE GONE." If you're like me you know that although your house might seem clean, there could potentially be urine ANYWHERE. The only obvious solution is to search your entire house with a black light (included), because as well all know, anything that appears really white under a black light MUST be urine. With only a couple sprays of Urine Gone the stain then disappears.

I think the second best part of this commercial is that as they look around the house, the places where urine is found gets more and more and more ridiculous. From a toilet, to the carpet, to a plant, to the wall of the shower, to around a sink. I know that its sort of intended for pets, but they used it in a few places where Bingo wouldn't go. The best part however comes from the realization that somebody had to pee/pour urine in all those places in order to make the commercial.
I also really like how it comes in a black plastic bottle with a big flashy logo on it because you really don't want your urine remover to blend in with the other cleaners you have in your closet. Nope, if a guest looks into a cupboard accidentally you really want that person to see that your house has a urine control problem to the point that you need a cleaner to address urine specifically.
