   Topic: Tampax and Kayaks?
Posted: 23 Feb 2010 at 8:36pm |
|
So I just saw a crazy commercial.
A white water kayak chic with a box of tampons strapped to the back of her PFD. Now that's some absorbency power!
Because I know when I am kayaking a river I always have my Tampax strapped to my back.
Really!?

That was shot this summer on the white salmon at rattlesnake rapid. It's was like a 110 degrees that day, and they completely took over Husum.

Yeah, I was out there remember that day...
when we heard about what they were shooting, we were like:
"WTF?!"
Cool to see the finished commercial--
but like all those dumbasses that make coommercials they fail to realize that there's no "outsmarting Mother Nature"
cultural appropriation =  |

I would love to see the boardroom presentation of this at Tampax cororate. Seeing someone pitch this to their higher ups would be more entertaining than the actual comercial. Maybe there should be a follow up comercial where they fix a broken boat with duct tape, fingernail polish and tampax.

I thought it was interesting that they chose to block the boat logo with a black block instead of a matching color, or just removing it???
What about the paddler? Anyone know her? I am guessing she does not brag about her sponsor at the take out...

I'm not sure what to say, after reading the topic I'm just glad this threads not about Leif.
Sorry Leif, held my mouse over the "post reply" button for a long time, but I just couldn't help it.

I know guys on the SWAT team that carry a few in their kits. If they work for bullet holes why not rebar or strainer punctures? Now that would make a hell of a Tampax commercial! Tampax; now for all your bloody holes!
