- The final, and by
far the best, "Sincerely Bad Poetry Minute". Thank you
Kyle Pees.
-
-
- So Kyle, a
salesman at CD101, submits a "spec spot" (a commercial
I make to help him sell to a client) and I immediately
take it to everyone at the station and commence the
pissing matches. It was the funniest thing I had
ever read. Even after reading it 10 times, when
I recorded it - I still could barely get through
it without laughing. And the reason again is obvious -
it's sincere. He was sincerely trying to make a poem.
-
- Brilliant.
-
- It
was just weeks before Christmas and all
through the land,
-
People were shopping and had hunger at
hand,
- "Where
to go?" the people did
say,
- Where
to get fed and get fed
today?
-
- Is
it a burger we want? Perhaps a
taco?
- No,
no we need something more.
- And
what did they see appear in the
light?
- Macaroni
Grill so clean and so
bright,
-
- They
could tell right away, that this was the
place,
- From
Italian to American, come and get it
dude.
- The
Macaroni Grill had all of their
favorites,
- Some
hot and some cold, with service
deluxe...
- ...and
a really clean restroom.
-
- So
what is the moral you say?
- This
holiday season when shopping or out and
around,
- Visit
one of the Macaroni Grills here in
town,
- They
have tables for two, or as big as a
bus,
- And
the food is great, really, trust
us,
-
- So
when you're hungry for pasta alfredo or
soupa du jour,
- Get
to the Macaroni Grill for the
cure,
- They
have one at Tuttle, and one at Mill
Run,
- Come
in for a glass of wine and some
fun.

- We laughed, and
laughed, and laughed. Then he came in the room, and we
roared. Even he laughed a bit. He's like "Well I know
it's kinda rough around the edges..." Ya think?
I just picture him sitting at his cubicle working
on this commercial and he had to have gotten to a
point and gone: "Yup, that's it! Done."
-
- Greatest shit
ever.
