Rich, dark chocolate

I've been living here now for almost six months and started watching tv again. I noticed that I kind of enjoy watching commercials. Before we moved, my favourite was a commercial for a diabetes blood sugar measurement thing. There was an older woman in there and several times throughout the commercial, she would raise her finger. She had a long finger, and it waved towards you. It was fixating looking at it :lol: We don't have that channel anymore and I miss her ...

But I digress. What I want to talk about is the choice of words. Especially for candy stuff. Did you ever notice that the phrase "rich, dark chocolate" is used in almost all the commercials for chocolatey stuff? Couldn't they be more inventive? I think right now, there are at least 4 commercials floating around where they mention the "rich, dark chocolate".
I thought that is funny. Advertising people, what a un-innovative bunch :fp:

    seems like every other commercial these days is for car insurance and normally its a random bunch of crap and then at the end they say geico or progressive or something

    That's another one that comes up quite often!
    No Rick, it's not a car insurance commercial, but I have to admit I quite enjoy these ... At least some of them :)

    Oh, and I found the commercial with the finger! Watch it, you'll be glad you did :lol:

    My chocolate must be at least 68% cacao...80% is preferred.

    oh, and none of that cheap, oily, gritty mass produced shit. Must be REAL chocolate.
