Is there anybody here who did NOT wake up to a new Lexus in

their driveway? Anyone? :shrug:


Mine is blue!











Okay, I didn't really get a Lexus. :eyes:

Using my superhuman perception, I divine that you are referring to an asinine TV commercial. :)

recipient(s) is led blindfolded out to the driveway, only to have the blindfold removed and a shiny new Lexus revealed, to their gasps of joy. Nevermind that a new Lexus probably costs a minimum of 40K or more.

They've run this commercial for several Christmas seasons now, and I've never understood the mentality behind it. Are there that many people who will see the commercial and slap their foreheads and say: "Of course! A Lexus! That's what I'll get my wife for Christmas!" ?

I guess the rich really are different than you and I.

a week ago, from the Wall Street Journal

These commercials make me insane. I like to see one where the recipient just hauls off and socks the idiot. Nothing else, just a punch and the commercial is over.

for the next several years without bothering to consult with me! That's so sweet!"

What am I thinking about right now? ;)

:hi:

When what I was really hoping for was a tie, or maybe a handkerchief. :-(

Can't f***ing move for Lexuses at my place today...

:hug:

:spray::rofl:
That's priceless.
Er...maybe you could trade a couple in?

:D

Stupid high performance sports car.... :evilgrin:

Not really, but if I

1. Watched television

2. Let commercials tell me what love is

I might really feel that way. I'm sure a lot of people really do, and that's why they keep at it.

maybe not.

12 year old Diamondback bike I call "Purple Haze" & had it tuned, regeared, new brakes, the works for my daughter & I to share. Now, I think that is a creative gift! Plus it had a big red bow on it.

okay, not even!



didn't get a lexus

or anyone new in the bed beside me


but I got through the day with a bunch of people that drive me crazy and I didn't get uptight or anything!

and I ate good food



And baby Jesus saw his shadow!

:rofl: :rofl: :pals:

good one SL

;) :rofl:

O, and they're blue.

but I don't have a driveway.

I hate the one commercial where there is this crowd sitting across the street from a $600,000 McMansion and they ooh and aah over the new car. Gee, it's so exciting to watch the rich give away their hugely expensive gifts.

condo building (involved in the construction of the nearby condo) if I had the energy and ambition, but I felt more like laying around in my pajamas all day..

Only because my Mommy made me. :(

hehehe

I'll let you know what color it is if I locate it.

buying me a car as a gift they wouldn't know me well and should just skin themselves alive with a dull butter knife and save me the trouble. I can't imagine picking out something like a car for someone else. Maybe it is just me but then I tend to drive my cars until they just can't go anymore and it kills me to have to find something else I might like. First I like not having car payments and second I know what I want better than anyone else could. :shrug: The other commercial that drives me nuts is the screaming kids BMW one. If I or my sibs would of acted like that at Christmas we would of never gotten another present again in out lives from either parent. Surprised disbelief was ok but screaming no way.

Or not so sadly.

then, sure!:crazy:
