File This Under: Eww!

Sep 23, 2008 9 Comments by

Okay, so copyranter had nothing but bad things to say when he blogged about the below Lifebuoy ad for soap at Coilhouse Magazine + Blog. But I must say that I have been extra diligent about washing my hands since reading his blog and seeing this ad.

However, I can’t help but wonder, like some of the commenters on copyranter’s blog, if our germaphobia is actually setting us up to be more prone to illness, because we’re not putting our immune systems through enough of a workout.

Word of advice, if you have a cat that you love, do not, do not, do not click through the jump to see the Lifebuoy cat croissant. I’m still a little traumatized.

    So telling me not to look at the cat croissant was like telling Hiro not to open the safe — it’s only gonna make me do it. And ewww…poor buttery kitty!

    So gross. And yet, you’re right about germs. We are turning into sickly, weak, purell squeezing crazies! We have to toughen up, people!

    Actually, it’s a hamster. But same thing if you ask me. Lord help me if my hypothetical kids ever want a gerbil or rodent-like pet.
