Jul 2 2008Best Light Bulb Commercial Ever

First!

I'm effing blown away by this.

First i win!........ to bad my penis cant get erect :(

great commercial.

That was a pretty good one.

What the ...?

I just watched this 5 times in a row and everytime I though my head was going to overload with joy . Usually when i find something that amuses me this much at work I show other people but...I dont know if anyone I work with can appriciate this much awesome. :) i'm a happy girl right now

Oh Damn that is funny!
"go away, we are having dinner!" Classic!

If this is the norm for that culture, imagine what they would find strange and overwhelming?

I still am not fully aware of what I just watched.

Pure Genius.

To be honest, this is one commercial that I will ACTUALLY WATCH!

AMAZING

I'm with you # 9. What the fuck was that?

I am absolutely terrified. Terrified.

"So that's the something-something ghost?"
"No, that's a transvestite."

Hehe...

FIRST!!

Mailed this to so many people. Classic.

What the fucking fuck was that . Entertaining though :)

I spewed coke on my keyboard......and I feel funny in my head...that was awesome

This wins so much.

Hilarious. I love the way the dad takes such a matter of fact attitude towards the spirits that seem to co-exist with them. A really funny way of contrasting traditional beliefs with the modern world (ghost? no, transvestite). I love it!

Geekology guy, just because you see a guy in blue paint doesn't mean it has anything to do with the performance show Blue Man Group. I know this is a bit whiney, but I'm a fan of Blue Man Group and they have a very specific look and persona. This is just a dude in blue paint.

Holy awesome.

jumpin j- dont be such a dick. it ruins the funny. I would never pick at something like that when thanks to that very "geekologie guy" I have been introduced to my new faveorite thing ever.

#21: seriously? I too am a fan, and found it funny. It's called humor.

Awesome commercial. They should make more. They should export their commercials to the States.

Lindsay: Oh really? What did he say? What was the last thing he said?
Tobias: I just blue myself.
Michael: He said some wonderful things.

HOLY SHIT! that was the best thing I've ever seen!

#9 and #20, you don't seem to get the point of the commercial: these are supposed to be scary things, even for Thai people, but in the light they're not scary at all.

This was funny the first time I saw it. I believe it was LAST YEAR on TBS.

@27, gee thanks! If it weren't for you explaining it to me I probably would lose sleep tonight.

Is that one straddling a Q-tip and using trash-can lids for wings? WTF?

Still...awesome. :)

lol @ #20

sounds like the kind of stuff i would write for pages on end in my english papers

@21 Blue Man group are Smurfs in Mime. Get over it.

my favorite was the first gost it keep sticking its toung out

thai commercials rock. imma buy a thai tv so i can watch em all the time. oh and a light bulb. an a ghost an a transvestite and a tall ghost.

Freaking awesome commercial

You r soooo right Geekology guy, this is the best way to sell products.

The problem is not so much with the ad folks, most of the time it's the clients, who pay for the ads. Their biggest concerns does it make my boss happy and not piss anyone off. Could you imagine any company the size of Sylvana, in the US, running an ad satirizing Jesus, his deciples, or any saint.

I worked on an ad for GBS, part of the Got Milk campain where Santa comes down the chinmy, sets up the gifts only to find that the kids some but not all of the cookies but drank all of the milk. Santa proceeds to collect all of the presents and head back up the chimny. The spot ran once, the head of the MPB saw it, pull the ad for being too offensive.

I hate ads. I love ideas.

what the hell is a jackfruit?

jackfruit ghost = a pun for slang word "transvestite" in Thai

a ghost with blue head = a pun for the word "phee faa"
phee = ghost / spirtit
faa = color blue

FYI : all ghosts in this commercial are from Thais' spiritual myth.

I'm Thai & addicted to this blog ^ ^

sorry, didn't mean to flood the comment.
I thought it didn't get through coz I kept getting error massages. > <

As a transvestite I am offended by the representation of my ilk as creepy crawlers or ghosts... We are a clean and industrious people....

Actually, I think they "pe-ka-noon" or "jackfruit ghost" is a slang for prostitutes especially in Bangkok. They are called ghost NOT because they look ugly or scary like ghost BUT because the illegal nature of their job that they have to hide and they usually stand by jackfruit trees to find a customer.
So, COMMENT #39 and 40...you are partly WRONG. I am Thai and the actual origin of the word refers to a prostitute not a transvestite, although now many transvestites become prostitutes.
And the SUBTITLE is WRONG. The dad says "khon" means human, not "transvestite" though the picture portrays that way.
I find it very frustrating that sometimes the media portrays Thailand as a country where LGBT community are accepted but treated as a joke.

Hahaha I live in Bangkok, and I know a bit of the Thai culture, this makes me laugh haha
<3 thailand
katoy = ladyboy

Holy shit, Thai ghosts are freaky.

I swear, other places around the world always have better commercials b/c of America's F#@king FCC bull$hit censorship. American's think they're liberated, but compared to some other cultures we're still the same backwards-a$$ puritan idiots that we're kicked out of England because we were EVEN TOO UP-TIGHT FOR THE BRITISH. I MEAN, SERIOUSLY - THE BRITISH. TOO UP-TIGHT FOR THAT CROWD? YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING . . .
Nope. Not kidding.
Now, that's a bad. We're not liberated. We are like a stupid pre-teen that's just starting to get her micro-boobies and wants to explore their new-found sexuality by locking ourselves in a dark closet and making out with a teddy bear.

Hrrmmm . . . . . . . why do you think all these Christian-right (right??? - more like wrong!) conservative politicians that America looks up to are getting caught touching little boys and fornicating in airport bathrooms.
You cannot suppress being a sick weirdo. Suppression will just make you a sicker, weirder, twisted up little fruitcake. That and instead of keeping it quietly to yourself, you'll be so pent up with all the pressure of bottling up your freakishness that one day an explosion of your most horrible little secretive perversions will explode from you and splatter all over whomever happens to be standing around you at the time. Oh yeah, and if you're really lucky one of those unfortunate souls coated in your surreptitious smegma will be a reporter, a cop, or just some douchwad with a camera phone (wow . . . I think that covers everyone) who will capture your unexpected expulsion and post your pathetically embarrassing experience on YouTube as another episode in the American devolution anthology, throw your a$$ in jail for public indecency (again), and/or put you on the 6 o'clock news - either way, you're in for a ride and you deserve it.
We're all a little twisted. Funny thing is that the people who suggest or insist that they aren't are the worst of the worst. Keep your eye on those time-bombs and don't get too close . . . you never know when they're might go off.
Don't say I didn't warn you!

. . . . and don't touch me until you wipe that crap off either.

I_Hate_Ads_ad_guy--i love the santa commercial idea. so funny. not as funny as this was, but still good. this was the weirdest commercial ever, but i so loved it!

HOLY SHIT IT'S A GHOST.
