...to sell Irish Spring soap.


I mean I go all year without seeing a single commerical for Irish Spring and then about a month before Patty's day you can't get away from them. Does that really work? Do they really get more sales during this holiday? Is Irish Spring soap the new Peep?

I haven't seen shit about Irish Spring soap.  Do people really still use bars?  That is so 80's.

Guess so. This new commercial has all these hot "Irish" women, course they have straight teeth and aren’t drunk...so I my doubts they are really Irish.) in a meadow, next to a stream Then they all come running when a guy uses Irish Spring body wash or something and they live in the bottle like a genie and peak on him while he is washing the old wedding tackle.

I like the 80s but not bars.  Dude, they leave residue. Residue!
Title: The real meaning of St. Patrick's day...
Post by: IDE on Mar 14, 2007, 02:20:51 PM
Yeah I never liked the residue.  I scraped it off before using the bar.  Actually I haven't used a bar in years but I still like them.

I use dove bars. the liquid soap is too "harsh" on my super-delicate (and soft, may I say, porcelain soft) skin. It makes it dry.

Oo I LOVE the smell of the Irish Spring soap. It's hot.

What happened is that I started getting these dry patches of skin in my arms after I started to use the liquid dove. Like they didn't look nasty, but only very dry. So I went to a dermatologist and he told me that Dove makes some people with super delicate skin get these dry patches, cause it dries the skin a lot.

Ah, Miroku. I gets it now.

I loathe Inuyasha so much. Possibly moreso than DBZ. When I think of the hours I wasted watching that crap... ugh.

I liked the early episodes, the third movie, and a few select later episodes.  I don't know what gives with this Japanese insistence to animate something that hasn't come to fruition yet.

I have no idea except for the fact that it hasn't ended yet, Sesshomaru's mother is alive, Tenseiga only works on a person once, Koga still has the damn shards in his legs for whatever reason, and Naraku still hasn't been beaten.
Title: The real meaning of St. Patrick's day...

Okay, the Naraku thing is just fucking ridiculous. You'd think even she would be sick of him by now.

Yet another manga in desperate need of a mercy killing.

I tuned out of Inu Yasha when the mechanical demons appeared. Tank boy was enough for me. That, and Miroku should have already been in Kagome and Sango's pants by now. They are just keeping my man down.
Title: The real meaning of St. Patrick's day...
Post by: B E C K on Mar 27, 2007, 05:39:13 PM
:lol:, I read "Shippo" instead of "Sango".  Gawd!  I liked how the series completely emasculated Miroku.  Either he wouldn't use his wind tunnel or there was always something poisonous around to be sucked on in.

I liked the Tank.  The Shichinintai were actually a semi-high point in the series IMO because we got Brian as Renkotsu and stuff looked like it was happening.  And then it stopped.

I remember telling Merla that it probably would've been a better series if it had just been Inuyasha and Sango traveling, and everyone else was peripheral.  Kagome and Shippo are annoying and Miroku was severely neutered and underused.  Many episodes could've been condensed or eliminated.  Why waste the money?  :\

The jewel thing is old.  The Kikyo being alive thing got old.  The Naraku being alive (I'm suppose to believe a half-demon is that strong) and very lamely and effortlessly manipulating everything is stupid.  The "sit" thing is annoying and stale.  I read the manga sporadically and didn't read anything past the Shichinintai, but I'm sure it's just Rumiko Takahashi whittling away at an idea until its half-dead again.  The first season or so and the batch of specials of Ranma 1/2 are funny.  And then it just gets sad.  Ranma and Akane don't even get married at the end.  R I P O F F.

I tihnk Inuyasha is a rip-off of Ranma. It is by the same author right? In my eyes, it is like Sex and the city and Desperate Housewives. Same shit, only difference is that the later is rated PG. same with inuyasha
Title: The real meaning of St. Patrick's day...
Post by: B E C K on Mar 29, 2007, 08:59:31 PM
Yes it's by the same author and it certainly seems that way, especially  with the interactions between Inuyasha and Kagome.
