There is a hand wound talking to me on TV

[Solly Mack]

Commercial for New Skin®.

It's doing that happy little talking smiley face - using a gash on the hand as the mouth. The wound is talking and expressing its pain - not the hand or the person connected to the hand.

If your wound is sentient and can even express those feelings verbally, isn't it wrong to suffocate it with New Skin®?

Shouldn't you just name your wound and introduce it to your friends?

[Floyd R. Turbo]

1. No!

Hands are notorious gossips!

[Solly Mack]

2. True, but it seems so wrong.

You'd always have a friend. Well, until it healed on its own. But then you'd have a cool scar to brag about.

[Arkansas Granny]

3. And that's the truth. Remember this guy?

[Floyd R. Turbo]

4. Senor Wences knew!

9. Ees nice!

5. The one where the discarded mop makes eyes at the bowling ball in the garage - jeezis.

I think it's a commercial for a Swifter & I would never buy one because I find that commercial so inane it's almost insulting. I'm a grown woman. It's a frickin' cleaning product.

[Solly Mack]

6. Yeah. I don't need my cleaning products to be cute. Or get all emo on me.

But if they wanted to move on their own and do what they were intended to do, I wouldn't complain.

[CrispyQ]

7. LOL, ditto that!

[Ohiogal]

8. That is indeed a strange commercial.

How about the one where the two ice cream products are leering at each other! The premise being that the advertised product is a combination of the two.

10. Once I shut the door, I don't really want to know what my food is doing.

Mingling, mixing - I don't care. As long as they go back to be the product I bought once I open the door again.

I'm convinced my dogs change the channel when I'm not in the room.

11. The only body part that should talk or sing is the mouth

Not a hand wound, not a belly button, nothing else.

[Solly Mack]

12. Now - that - I'd smother.

Happily.

[Lint Head]

13. I'm against the degradation and suppression of free speech

for wounds to the body. For that matter wounds to any living thing. Including plants.

I am taking donations to start The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Wounds. Or SPCW.
Anyone wanting to donate can access Damnouch.uh.

[Solly Mack]

15. That's very forward thinking of you.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. It's really creepy.

[Solly Mack]

16. It is.

I'm sure they thought it cute though.

I don't want my gaping wounds carrying on a conversation with me.
