950 Interpretation

Monday, October 30, 2006

There's a Special K (cereal) commercial where a woman joins her friends at an outdoor cafe, and they remark on how good she looks. She gives credit to her breakfast cereal. At the end, the voiceover says - or at least I think he says:

"Women who eat breakfast like the Special K breakfast weigh less."

I think that's what he said. Because what I heard was:

"Women who eat breakfast like the Special K breakfast way less."

I'm amazed that no one at the ad agency caught that during review.

I have NOT been able to find anyone else to verify how weird this sounds. THANK YOU.

I didn't understand the "weigh less" at first until you pointed that out. Get it now.

Great catch, I agree.
