I’m surprised you got anything even remotely vague after sifting through the dialectual quagmire that is the Oklahoma accent.

What’s really funny about this is I was just going to bed as it was probably around 10:00pm for me. Aren’t time/date zones wonderful?

They’re actually predicting that the AUD will be worth more than the USD by year’s end. We’ll wait and see, but at the moment the economy here is kicking everyone’s ass.

That’s just crazy! First time I was in Oz the exchange rate was like 1.5!

There’s that as well. Might be worth the time to have a valuation done it.

Well, weirder things have happened. Like the Aussie dollar worth .90 to the US dollar. Who would have ever thunk it?

Your class ring may not pay off even half a month’s mortage. Unless you got a very special class ring most of them are usually less than 14 carat gold and that’s not worth $1055/oz.

You are also assuming that your class ring is actually the percentage gold that they ‘promised’!

That would make the same amount of mass worth even more money, which would make me even better off.

By: slaggingham

That would only happen if the US dollar suddenly skyrocketed in value, and inflation screeched to a halt.

That ain’t happening any time soon. Not with the Treasury hemorraging money.

You know what’s going to happen, right? Now that you have mentioned what your plans are, the price of gold will start declining so that your class ring won’t even pay for 1 month of electricity.

You may have jinxed yourself.

Sorry to disappoint you, but the ounce has been devalued. It’s now only worth 3 grammes.

flea market. flea market….. or was he saying ‘FREE MARKET, FREE MARKET’? It all makes sense as subtle anti-capitalist propaganda.

Those ads have just eaten my brain. They should have showed them to prisoners in Abu Ghraib. Bet they would have confessed to anything rather than watch a second time. Linoleum. Linoleum.

That’s why I bought gold when it was $350 an ounce. Today it’s $1055.

In another year, selling my high-school class ring should be enough to pay off the rest of my mortgage.

Ka-ching!

Our local dealers also love to put their “hot trophy wives” into their commercials. Only they aren’t that hot. And the Ford dealers wife hasn’t updated her hair since the early 80′s.

Flea Market Montgomery is almost certainly first. That was an actual commercial he aired- the Linoleum commercial is likely referencing it.

And you’re right. It’s awesome.

By: VictoryNotVengeance

VictoryNotVengeance — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 15:58:02 +0000

From what I have seen, the children singing for their parents in the commercials belong to Republicans, especially in the Southeast US. I don’t think any are singing about Obama, unless its in a negative light.

By: VictoryNotVengeance

VictoryNotVengeance — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 15:55:54 +0000

First, thats fricking awesome. I have never wanted to shot at a Flea Market more. Second, have you seen the Linoleum commercial Its a commercial from the show Reno 911. Its almost excatly like the one you posted. I wonder which one came out first. Both are awesome. oh yeah, and still lol!

I vaguely recall the saying, “I’m-a Oklahoma born and Oklahoma bred, and when I die I’ll be-a Oklahoma dead” — I’m guessing that excludes any vague Yankee-ification of the accent.

Oh, and as an addendum to that: Your wife/girlfriend/teenage daughter is ….well, she’s not all that hot. Sorry. And you should probably practice saying your own lines for the commercial until they sound natural, not like you’re reading what the kidnappers just handed you at gunpoint for proof of life.

I think that’s all.

By: dissimilitude

dissimilitude — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 14:42:42 +0000

Most of the time they’re nowhere near as cute as their parents seem to think they are. Seriously, local commercialmakers — of course you think little Dalton and Dakota are the cutest thing ever. They’re YOUR kids. The rest of us….well, not so much.

Oh lordy, we have those in Oklahoma. The kids hawk homes, cars, filtered water systems… And due to a mixture of accents and lack of enunciation, you can’t understand a thing.

I’m almost tempted to buy from these companies, just so they have the dough to pay for speech therapy.
