There’s a commercial for The Store’s e-reader that’s been playing on loop at the counter. It stars some Glee celebrity made out of teeth. It’s one of the worst things I’ve been subjected to. It ranks up there with the Elf on a Shelf promotional jingle we had a couple years back.

I got an email from Adele asking if I had any ideas for the commercial and John and I were bouncing silly ideas off one another at work until his punchline stuck. I find it stupid if when someone asks for help (like in the commercial) and the first thing someone does is jump into a stupid musical number, hands the lady a fancy tablet thing and thinks the job is done. …This may tie in with why I don’t really like musicals in and of themselves…
