It’s nice to know that we are a full month into 2011 and Skittles ads are still so weird. In this topsy-turvy world it’s nice to have something to hold onto!

Still my fave:
I understand why they make them weird, but do they have to always be vaguely horrifying and full of despair?
I think it’s pretty apropos. “Hey, the world is often really shitty. Our candy isn’t going to change that. But ask yourself this question- given the choice, wouldn’t you like some candy while you wait for things to get better?”
We live in dark times, Godsauce. Anthropologists in the future will look to these Skittles ads as defining statements of a collective psyche loosing touch with reality in the face of war, post-information technology paranoia, and guilt over the growing disparity between rich and poor. Or maybe the dudes who made it were high. Either way.
Best double fisting video I’ve seen in almost an hour.
We invited you hear to talk about normal people eating normal candy, and instead what you’re describing sounds like that boat trip from Willy Wonka
here not hear*
Of all the bothering things in that commercial, why am I most bothered by the fact that both fists are right handed?
Total right fist conspiracy.
HIT ME!
I am filled with dread.
Remeber this?
That’s your girlfriend.
True story: My housemate bought a 54oz. bag of Skittles.
I don’t wanna hear how this story ends….
Costco.
The story ends with there being approximately 52oz. of Skittles in a bag in my kitchen right now.
So, the most exciting ending imaginable?
Yes.
Somebody call M. Night Shyamalamma-ding-dong.
So skittles = weed, right?
Me skittles! They’re all gone.
Remember that Ludacris video where he has really big hands? OK!
Or the Foo Fighters one?
You mean the guy from “Max Payne?”
what is this, twenty questions? (call back!)
I want to lick your skittles from your head to your toes
Some guy offered to clench the rainbow last time I was in Chelsea. If I had known that’s what he meant, I would have taken him up on the offer.
Is the new avatar just for today or is this a permanent switch? Because I will totally back a Ned Ryerson avatar.
Just for today. Although I do love me some Tobolowsky.
Also, never except any offers you receive in Chelsea. It’s just asking for trouble.
I really dislike the one about the kid with the Skittles tree growing out of him. His mother essentially says to him that, no, he cannot follow his dreams and in fact should continue to be a cash cow for her. It’s sickening and saddening. It’s sickaddening.
It’s not really even that he’s trying to follow his dreams. He’s trying to get a Skittles tree-ectomy and his mom won’t let him. I’ve tried calling child protective services about it, but they tell me they can’t do anything to help because the kid and his mom are make-believe.
I’m sorry. Are they both about to be used for a good fisting? Is there a Skittles translation out there somewhere? Am I not high enough (sitting at my desk at work)?
This Luvs commercial is more disturbing to me:

this commercial scares the fuck out of me
The first time I saw it I was just like WHATTTTTT??????????? And the second time I saw it I was like SERIOUSLY WHAATTTTTTTT?????????????
Heavy Doody Blowout Protection
THIS IS NOT THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO GET THIS POINT ACROSS.
Ugh, don’t even get me STARTED on the Dingleberry Bears.
DingleBEARrys!
In an effort to make commercials that were quirky and unique, the Skittles corporation hired a bunch of new advertising writers. They apparently weren’t aware that the new writers smoked crystal meth regularly.
So, if color TV was never invented, would skittles’ motto be “Taste the Grayscale”? – Barry the Label Guy
My favorite commercial of all time, now and forever, will always be the Skittles Pinata Man
IM JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE

I wonder if my barbies ever had the same conversation. Now I’m sad.
Well, I won’t be switching to Skittles any time soon. TRY TO LEARN FROM THE OLD SPICE MAN, SKITTLES CORPORATION.
(In other news, anyone else have trouble posting today? I submitted a couple that never appeared.)
Apparently there’s another in this series where it explains whose fists these are.
In related news, whoever said only attractive people could get jobs acting on tv was just proven wrong.
It always seems like Burger King and Skittles are in a long running contest to make me not want to buy their stuff.
Was that guy on the right Steve Brule’s sparring partner Denny?

That’s Adam and Steve and God is holding them so they don’t gay-marry with each other.
C’mon!
HAHA some guy on Youtube wrote: “Looks like those big hands caught a couple of pedophiles”.
Great work, YouTubers. Great work.
