Yesterday I heard one of the smartest radio ads of all time. It was for a doctors office that specializes in vasectomies. I know what you are thinking, “A radio ad for a vasectomy, are they performing them in a Burger King bathroom?” Trust me I thought the same thing. Then I listened to their pitch.
It’s simple, your husband is going to be sitting on his butt all weekend watching March Madness so why not get him snipped on Wed. and then he can sit out the rest of the weekend recovering?!?! Seriously, it’s hard to get a man to do anything drastic downstairs, but this might just be the ultimate comprimise.
How many men do you know are looking for an excuse to get out of work on Thursday/Friday, this most hallowed of weeks? And how many men are willing to do something drastic so that they can sit on their can watching basketball and eating Cheetos all weekend? My guess…75%. So here is the solution, tell your boss you have to go in for ‘Surgery’. A smart boss never asks what type of surgery, waaaayyyy too much information. So you go in early Thursday morning, get a 30 min operation (I only know this because the ad said it only takes 30 min), lose some sterlity (big deal right?!?
, get a prescription for some painkillers (now you can watch basketball and feel like you are in the game), and then go home and sit on your can four days.
Seems like the perfect solution. Your wife is happy because you won’t be impregnating anything anytime soon and she won’t have to be on birth control.
Risk? Yes…but they did say it is scalpel free. So what do you have to lose?
Firing blanks never felt so good. G0 “insert team here”!
