Jedward Candy Bar

December 16th, 2011 by

Things that make you go humm.

Folks, Jedward has come out with a candy bar. It just makes me want to cry, because it’s so painfully pop culture, punny, laughable and sad all at the same time. Someone else bought it for me as a gift, and my first thought was that I *Had* to blog about it and post pictures, because this is something that is lost in translation (and I’m sure didn’t make it across the pond). So here they are.

Jeward candy bar 4 (Jedward Twin Bars - Popping Chocolate Bars)
Jedward candy bar – twin “popping” chocolate bars

Jedward "popping" candy bar 3 (Full on, Crazy, Jeadly!)
(yes, it says that it’s FULL ON, Crazy, JEADLY)

Jeward "poppin" candy bar 2 (want to Meet Jedward?)
Want to Meet Jedward? Get the golden ticket! (Thank Goodness I didn’t get the ticket.)

For those of you who don’t know who Jedward is, let me explain (although I’m not sure there is any explanation for these two). They were twin contestants on “x factor”, which is basically the “American Idol” for Britain and Ireland. They’re 17 year old blonde teenagers who, for lack of a better word, are stupid – and famous for it. They can’t really sing, and they (like Bieber fever) are everywhere here in Ireland and one doesn’t really know why. You can’t get them gone. They’re on TV (doing ads for a local cell phone company), starring in Celeb Big Brother House, and earlier this year – were Ireland’s entry for the Eurovision song contest (please don’t get me started on the contest).

They’re voted one of the year 2011′s most annoying…

and deservedly so.

Hilarious TV ads 4 (Guest Appearances)

April 10th, 2011 by

Every once in a while, I catch an ad on TV – that results in me pausing / looking up, and bursting into bouts of laughter. They really do have some cute ads here in Ireland, and I think some of the funniest I’ve seen in a while. As a result, I have decided to start keeping tabs to share these.

Today’s theme… Guest Appearances …..I hope you enjoy!

Paul Whitehouse – Scottish Comedian:

David Soul (Starsky and Hutch) & Omid Djalili:

And last but not least –

A guy named Josh Roberts – sounding like Morgan Freeman:

Oh – and speaking of Guest Appearances – I caught a re-run of Smallville this week. I knew John Schneider was in the series as the dad – but there was an episode that made me do a double take and show my age. It was a subtle “easter egg” reunion of the Dukes of Hazzard….

Note that I couldn’t find an actual copy – but essentially, I had the biggest crush on John Schneider (from back in the CHIPS days) back in the 1970′s all the way thru the Dukes of Hazzard Days… let’s just say that this left me obsessed and youtube-ing for a copy. This was the best one I could find.
