CatherineM Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 I find I put it on in the background just to cover the noise in the building. We're right next to the stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG45 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Mainly I use TV as background noise...but sometimes commercials can cut from the background to the fore when offensive enough. Like I don't know what it's for, because I never catch it right away, but there's one where a teen boy or teen girl goes, "I don't want to [b]ruin my life[/b] due to an unplanned pregnancy!"

tojo Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 My favorite thing about not having had TV for more than a year now is that I'm not exposed to the commercials for the Girls Gone Wild videos. I never understood how there could be pornographic TV commercials for pornographic videos on mainstream cable networks. It just wasn't right.

[/quote] Yeah, it's a campaign from "StayTeen.org" which is a site that has two "outlooks" on teenage pregnancy - one is preventing it by Abstinence, the other with Birth Control (as they say: "if you [i]are[/i] going to have sex, you need protection") I checked it out to see what trash it was. And [b]OH[/b] what trash!!! The typical links are listed for the page on Birth Control - Go Ask Alice, Planned Parenthood, etc. But the links for the site on Abstinence are a JOKE!!! A link to Planned Parenthood's page on abstinence!?! COME ON, are you JOKING?!?!?! NONE of those resources are good resources for abstinence. What about Chastity.com? National Abstinence Clearinghouse? Nope, you CERTAINLY won't see any of THOSE on there!!! I bet it's just another one of Planned Parenthood's "projects" ...

BG45 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Ah thanks, at least now I have a name to associate with the commercial that drives me nuts. And it wouldn't surprise me if it was one of PP's "Projects" as you put it, given the wording of the commercial. x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
