News of a large dinosaur bone find today made me think of Viagra for some reason. Because, you know, they have an ad where some guy uses horses to drag his truck out from being stuck in the mud in another ad that uses a rather pathetic metaphor for erectile dysfunction. And in the spirit of that ad, here’s a proposed ad for Viagra using a large dinosaur bone find as another insulting metaphor for E.D.:
A sexagenarian paleontologist is digging for fossils when he unearths a large dinosaur bone, and after a brief celebration with his compatriots, he looks at the camera and says: “Nothing makes me happier than finding an old dinosaur bone that hasn’t seen the light of day in ages. And you know, Viagra helped me find another old bone that hadn’t seen the light of day in ages: my erection. If like me, you have erectile dysfunction, try it yourself, and see if it doesn’t dig up your old bone for you, too.”
(I say “Joke/Proposed” in the headline because while the above ad is a joke, it could be that the digging up of dinosaur bones is merely the suggestive backdrop to a Viagra ad, with the old bone metaphor there but unmentioned, like in the horse transport ad, or the Cialis ads where we see phallic telescopes and sex metaphor fireworks that go unmentioned, but which we can hardly fail to notice.)
Here’s the huge dino-story:
