So, I know I’ve been slacking on the Weekend Doses of Fugly. What can I say, life happens.
BUT during the commercials before Avatar tonight (my 140-character thoughts on that subject are here and here),
THIS happened.
I guffawed, people. GUFFAWED.
Well played, Old Spice.
Well. PLAYED.

*DIES* I’m speechless!
I was too. When I COULDN’T BREATHE FROM LAUGHING ANY MORE.
.-= andhari´s last blog ..All Smiles =-.
As you said.. Well played, Old Spice.
And….
Dear B,
Who in your household takes care of kitty waste related chores? In my household it’s me & I just want to know if it’s a dude thing to not change/scoop kitty boxes. And, you’re a dude, so I am getting your opinion. Thanks! Keep bein’ awesome!
Old Spice has revved it up, for reals.
.-= MsDarkstar´s last blog ..F-Word Friday (19) =-.
Hahahaha!
AGREED.
OMFG, I saw this commercial today on TV and nearly peed myself. It will be a classic, for sure.
Instant.
.-= Kara´s last blog ..WTF Friday 1.0 =-.
old spice has an entire youtube channel of “manmercials,” i watched a bunch of them the other day, pretty much the greatest things i’ve ever seen.
Apparently the “making of” thems are hilarious too?
.-= gingermandy´s last blog ..I thought I had no opinion. =-.
bwah ha ha ha!! awesome!!!
.-= cari´s last blog ..evangelizing my backyard… =-.
Um, yeah. That commercial is HILARIOUS. And if you super nerdy like me, you might enjoy this video where the creators explain that it is NOT done in CG (except for the oyster shell turning into diamonds part). Pretty effin’ amazing.

YES. Yes yes yes. I have “super nerd” stamped on my forehead, in fact.
.-= Tabitha´s last blog ..Protected: My First Time =-.
Oh my God. I want to Old Spice all over him.
That’s what I’m sayin!
.-= Kirsty´s last blog ..Today I am… =-.
I just found that commercial this week. Ah-Mazing. I’ve watched eleventy billion times. If I had a man I’d want him to smell like that.
I’m on a horse.
I’M on a horse!
hahaha! ‘I’m on a horse’
My horse is Old Spicier than your horse.
.-= miss. chief´s last blog ..It’s almost over! =-.
If I ride a horse and smell like him, will I get abs?
Duh.
Or at least a tail.
.-= Skylers Dad´s last blog ..The late friday bring it on weekend post! =-.
LOL
We went to the movies yesterday and saw that commercial….I almost choked on my cherry coke….
It is definitely choke-worthy.
tears
actual tears of laughter
watched it 3 times am dying THANK YOU!
If ever there was a commercial to cry over, this is the one.
Take THAT, Sarah McLaughlin-crying-puppies commercial!
.-= this is my life´s last blog ..happy tomorrow =-.
I saw this commercial last week and just about died… awesome!
It is magical.
.-= ClassroomConfessions´s last blog ..WordCamp 2010 =-.
I’m gettin’ me some Old Spice. And a man.
Just make sure he smells like that dude.
.-= danielle´s last blog ..to juliet [a project for school that i ended up kicking ass in] =-.
Yesterday I watched the making of this ad…totally awesome! It’s on Youtube!
Off to watch now. Hell to the yes.
.-= The Mercurial Wife´s last blog ..Lips Sealed =-.
That is my favorite commercial! Every time it’s one we hit rewind three times.
I’ve rewatched it at least 18 times. Surprise ending: It doesn’t get old.
.-= Susan´s last blog ..local souvenirs =-.
Yeah, hubs saw that shit and rewound several times so he could laugh hysterically!
If I could have rewound the move projector, I would have.
.-= Adrienzgirl´s last blog ..Tick Tock, Tick Tock…What makes you Rock? =-.
My Facebook status updates all week were about this commercial (I saw it during LOST and kept cracking up). I’m on a horse.
(Yes, I think saying “I’m on a horse” randomly at the end of sentences is completely appropriate.)
Hmmm. Maybe Facebook isn’t as evil as I thought. I would have known about this DAYS ago!!!
.-= Beach Bum´s last blog ..!!! =-.
Thank goodness for YouTube! I don’t get to see US commercials, but wonderful bloggers like you tip me off and I don’t miss out. I can do without US shows on TV (we wait and buy the good stuff on DVD), but good commercials are gold. Thanks
!
At your service.
.-= Connie´s last blog ..57 Random Things =-.
So I read that this commercial is a type of hypnosis-Isn’t that just TRIPPY!?
Consider me ‘tized… and LOVING IT.
.-= Kayla´s last blog ..Share-a-Post Sunday =-.
oh my! That was terrible and hilarious.
Mostly hilarious, though, right?
I thought so.
God bless America. We could never top that here. Ne-verr.
You mean “stoop to that,” don’t you?
.-= Nicole´s last blog .."That’s life, this life." =-.
lol! I’ve seen the other one like this where he’s backwards on a horse, but this one is far better.
New dream superpower: the ability to turn tickets into diamonds. Or… no actually I’m torn. Maybe the ability to turn anyone into Bruce Campbell would make my life better. He’s been in an old spice commercial, does that count?
Bruce Campbell is like Chuck Norris lite with a dash of debonair.
So, totally.
.-= Kyla Roma´s last blog ..Friday Finds are crafty tapes =-.
That is so not the Old Spice guy from my 20′s, this one is so much better.
Undeniably a vast improvement.
God, I love that commercial. I think my husband thought it was a little…abstract or something. He didn’t laugh nearly as hard as I did.
Divorce him. Immediately.
.-= nikki´s last blog ..The Brewer Brigade is swinging south, the Schafer Shift, North….or BSC Super Special #14, BSC in the USA =-.
This is currently the best commercial on TV…old spice knows who their target market is. I’m new to your blog – I found it by clicking on an old man humping an old lady, and although I was just hoping for some old person porn – I guess your site will have to do. So far so good.
Old men humping old ladies is just how we roll here. You’ll see.
.-= OG´s last blog ..Friday Rant and Rave =-.
Yeah that commercial cracks my shit up every time I see it. There’s a whole series of Old Spice commercials in a similar vein dating back to last year and they all crack me up. The ones of the guy on the beach spring to mind who’s talking about being a real man. Awesome.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand youtubing NOW.
.-= Vegetable Assassin´s last blog ..The Olympics You Really Want =-.
this whole series of old spice commercials makes me seriously snort laugh. so hard!
I thought they were kind of odd at first, but I think I finally “get it” now. Full circle.
.-= siovhan´s last blog ..all the single ladies… =-.
I’ll only believe that you guffawed if you provide audio evidence.
Hmmm. I wasn’t making a bootleg movie (this time) unfortunately.
.-= Mo´s last blog ..Pint-sized Crime Stories (Crime Writing Festival) =-.
LOL thank you for sharing!!
It was too good to hold inside.
.-= Emily Jane´s last blog ..Updates – and some quick and easy decadence! =-.
genius.
YES! I about lost it when I saw those on TV for the first time.
.-= kate´s last blog ..snOMG!! Midwestern Edition =-.
Hahaha! Lucky for me Wade uses Old Spice. Unlucky for me tickets have never turned into diamonds. Damn it. However he does look hot on a horse. And he’s a real cowboy. Hot!
.-= Kellie´s last blog ..Weekly Want-it’s! =-.
I am STILL on a boat. Also, a horse. Also, a laughter-high from this.
Surely that is not supposed to be fugly!
.-= Kristin´s last blog ..New York Fashion Week & The BonBon Rose Girls= Like WHOA =-.
hahaha, I want to meet those creatives who came up with that.
.-= Allison´s last blog ..these are the sweatpants of our lives =-.
Old Spice should really hire me. I could have made that commercial WAY better. One word:
UNICORN
.-= Elly Lou´s last blog ..All About Me =-.
Haha! Brill! I especially love that initially he pulls the Old Spice out of his butt.
Yes, love the Old Spice commercials. lol, goofy.
.-= sheila´s last blog ..Things That Make Me Wonder *rubs chin* =-.
i am LOVING these commercials. i love this new trend of Manly Men commercials that are completely overboard on the manliness…!
.-= Alice´s last blog ..flavor trip! =-.
Hysterical!!! Thanks for sharing!!!! (& visiting … much appreciated)
I seriously needed a good laugh…and there it is!
.-= Stacy (the Random Cool Chick)´s last blog ..It’s Illegal to Open that Box of Coke! =-.
HAHAHAHA…I’m surprised that Oxygen doesn’t just play that commercial over and over. It’s kind of like that ridiculous “Instant Adoring Boyfriend” thing they used to do.
.-= BeckEye´s last blog ..Sonic Sunday: My Birthday Edition =-.
What can anyone do but gaffawed?
I think he pulled that first bottle from his butt. Amazing. And then to turn an oyster to sand and soap…and end it all on a horse. That is one talented Man, Man.
.-= Nikki´s last blog ..La Rustica =-.
This commerical makes me LOL everytime its on!
.-= Nickie´s last blog ..Beautiful Blogger Award. =-.
amazing!
.-= emily´s last blog ..saving the best of last is for assholes =-.
I love this commercial!!
.-= Wonderful´s last blog ..Money, money, money =-.
HAHA That is so funny. I saw that one of him riding backward on the horse on Ellen. And he is supposed to be on Ellen next week. (wait… that came out wrong) He is supposed to be on the Ellen show next week.
