I'm not sure how much you guys listen to Fan960, but seriously, the Fed-ex commercials are hilarious. If you havent heard them, you need to give them a listen.

I mean the "Keith, the other shipping guy commercials" Just for clarification.

You know I was kinda thinking of posting this a few days ago. But I was hesitant to buck up in the fear of getting ultra flamed. They are quite funny. Love the late 70's sitcom feel to the music.

But I also find the Calgaryjobshop commercials funny too, and I know what the general consensus around here is on those. The transferring you to Poland one is awesome.

My wife and I heard them a few days ago and they were great. Reminds us of those SNL-type mock-commercials. Very funny

I can't stand them. I want them to die. But not as much as I want the commercials for mortgages to go dot crap to die.

OT, but since we're talking about commercials on the Fan960, I'm sure other people have heard that commercial for the hottubs. (Paradise Hot Tubs and Spas?) Anyways, they're singing that annoying song where it goes "hot tubs are fun, hot tubs are fun". Does anyone know what the phrase they sing after that part is? For some reason, I keep hearing "Isn't it a hottub where you get with your mom", but I'm sure that's not what they say right?

isn't it in a hottub where your dad met your mom.

I thought it was "come on down to Paradise and get yourself one."

I sure hope that it is your answer though.

I don't see you inventing things like the moon or gravy!

Times are tough, but times are tough everywhere, and we've seen tough times, and we get through tough times.

Alarm Force is listed on the TSX

So, is it love?
Maybe.
Tell !
We met at the club, and he's cute, hot dancer, funny, whatever. But here's the thing - he says he is the designated driver because it is a great way to meet chicks.
And you believed him?
He drove me home - sober!

When I found out my folks were going to buy a Hot Tub there, I did everything in my power to kybosh the deal and make sure they went elsewhere. Simply because of that commercial. And they did. That commercial cost that company a $9000 sale.

I also don't drive an eco-friendly hovercraft powered by the laughter of children.

Wasn't it in a hot tub where you damaged your mom?

Awesome!. This alone cancels out your misguided j*bshop admiration. I too, will go the extra mile to funk over the garbage-commercial perpetrators.

CaramonLS · 10-16-2009, 11:49 PM

The new one for Shaw home phone services with that family singing their answering machine message horribly out of tune almost made me call Shaw and cancel my services.

Seriously, it burned my ears. Only heard it once so far on the radio about 2 days ago (960).

Keith! has a solution to every problem. It's magic! While it's not really magic. He just ships stuff with fed-ex! that makes more sense. HE'S THE OFFICE SHIPPING GUY! KEITH!

Rathji · 10-17-2009, 05:47 AM

I love those fed ex commercials, I wish they would make some more. I am getting a bit tired of Jim the Rhino guy and Horatio and his dog hair filled car!

WindomURL · 10-17-2009, 11:54 AM

Those Fedex.ca commercials are about the gayest thing I've ever heard on the radio. Just like the movie Top Gun, it's a recruitment campaign for the insidious gay secret society led by its leader, Kelsey Grammer. Where do you think the cheezy sitcom music comes from?

Don't you see? You've all been indoctrinated! Soon you'll be watching your Flames (ah hah!) PPV in a fern bar!
