Rav 4: The Funniest Car Commercial Of All Time?

The Talking Centipede

A man goes into a pet store and tells the clerk he's looking for a real unique pet. The clerk tells the man he has a talking centipede. The man buys the centipede and walks out of the store.

In his car the man asks the centipede if he would like to go to Reilly's Bar after he gets home and cleaned up. No response from the centipede. When they get home the man asks the centipede again if he'd like to go to the bar, still no response. After the man showers and changes clothes he says to the centipede, "I'm leaving now so this is the last time I'm going to ask you if you want to go have a few drinks."

The centipede snaps back and says "I heard you the first time, I've been putting my shoes on!"

I found this video referenced in the New York Times yesterday where Op-Ed columnist Frank Rich wrote the following words in a piece titled "The Bigots' Last Hurrah":

WHAT would happen if you crossed that creepy 1960s horror classic “The Village of the Damned” with the Broadway staple “A Chorus Line”? You don’t need to use your imagination. It’s there waiting for you on YouTube under the title “Gathering Storm”: a 60-second ad presenting homosexuality as a national threat second only to terrorism.

The actors are supposedly Not Gay. They stand in choral formation before a backdrop of menacing clouds and cheesy lightning effects. “The winds are strong,” says a white man to the accompaniment of ominous music. “And I am afraid,” a young black woman chimes in. “Those advocates want to change the way I live,” says a white woman. But just when all seems lost, the sun breaks through and a smiling black man announces that “a rainbow coalition” is “coming together in love” to save America from the apocalypse of same-sex marriage. It’s the swiftest rescue of Western civilization since the heyday of the ambiguously gay duo Batman and Robin.

Far from terrifying anyone, “Gathering Storm” has become, unsurprisingly, an Internet camp classic. On YouTube the original video must compete with countless homemade parodies it has inspired since first turning up some 10 days ago. None may top Stephen Colbert’s on Thursday night, in which lightning from “the homo storm” strikes an Arkansas teacher, turning him gay. A “New Jersey pastor” whose church has been “turned into an Abercrombie & Fitch” declares that he likes gay people, “but only as hilarious best friends in TV and movies.”

To read the remainder of Rich's well written piece, click here. But be sure to watch the Colbert clip as it really zooms in . . . with great laughs . . . on anti-gay hysteria.
