@LiebeItai At the time this commercial was made people generally made coffee by using a percolator. You rarely see this now because we use drip coffee makers.
That's a lie. Most instant coffees do not taste like fresh perked, brewed or pressed coffee. Maybe just a tad worse then that generic brand my hospital has in our break room for the drip maker.
i loved using the key to open the cans of coffee back then. instant may have been quicker but it did not give the satisfying aroma when the lid was lifted, or the vacuum-destroyed "whoosh". i miss how even opening coffee cans held a bit of danger (cutting your fingers off).
Just a theory here: When you see two women in a commercial comparing products, the woman representing the sponsor's product is almost invariably a blonde, and is always prettier than the woman representing the "other guys' product". Psychologically speaking, the saying "blondes have more fun" is used to further the image of "sex sells" in TV advertising. Again, just a theory; no scientific data behind it, just over 40 years of watching TV commercials.
Bums. Life/ they think its a joke. a mans world. James Brown tune. come on. wake up. business sucks/ corporation sucks. the point is relaxation. having a nice day.
@shippem - These commercials are really a blast from the past. To see how advertisers thought back then is hilarious. There is no way you would see an ad like this today, but at the time this kind of thinking was common place if very sexist in it's attitude......
Like women are going to stress out because hubby doesn't like the coffee you give him in the morning! ;)
women like that are so attractive.. That's back when there wasn't a problem with the education system because mothers would smack their kids for acting up in school.
@fonna Do you love Dennis Leary because he's pissed off and not funny, because he's a moron, or because he ripped off all his material from Bill Hicks? These are all good reasons to love him.
Using your own logic, if your wife complains about not having enuff money, you should ask her to whore herself out to earn more cash...or at least to get off her lazy-ass butt and EARN her own H*cking money!
In all the women's history studies I've done I;ve never read about this strange culture in which a woman's only buring desire from dawn to dusk was to make her husband good coffee.
The only thing percolated coffee has to suggest for it, is the aroma when the percolator is plugged in. Otherwise--the grounds in the bottom of the cup were always a drag, but the coffee itself always tasted fine. No wonder people use filter drip now.
Actually percolation is one of the worst ways to make coffee. Heating it over and over again destroys the flavor (that's what a percolator does.) That's one reason why nobody uses percolators anymore. Instant coffee is actually brewed coffee that is sprayed into a cooled vacuum chamber to remove the water (freeze drying).
It's 50/50 for me on the humor between the comments and the commercial. But the real question is. . . "Have you had your fresh perked coffee today?" Insert corny 60's jingle here{ }
we always had maxwell house and then my mom had some of that brim, freeze dried instant crap in the mid to late 70s.fill it to the rim jim...with brim. then there was the brim twist promoting the new easy open jar. just what were those crystals anyway.
Wtf does "fresh-perked" mean?
