Video of the day -- cultural differences


Americans watch Japanese TV commercials.  I guess these must work to sell things over there?

Lmaoooo cultural differences are a riot.
I liked the one with the cheerleaders sending the guy to a supermarket (?) and the kitty roaming national monuments. Commercials are much better when you have no idea they’re saying. 😎

XoXo

The Japanese have a very . . . unique . . . sense of humour.

Oh my God, that first one looks like the ad Mr. Peanutbutter made for the undersea world on an episode of Bojack Horseman!

This just proves that there are crazy commercials everywhere. lol
Some of the commercials we have here in the US are pretty weird too.

Sixpence: The kitty one was funny. I guess cats are considered photogenic everywhere.

Debra: That's certainly true.

Professor: There is a resemblance -- maybe they saw the commercial (or vice versa).

Mary: That could be. I remember most US commercials as being terribly dull, but I haven't had a TV for over 20 years.
