Thursday, October 22, 2009

So here we are watching some prime time comedy on the evening of Windows 7’s launch, and a commercial for the operating system comes on the television. I’m half listening to the TV while browsing the web when I suddenly look up, surprised, pretty sure that the girl in the commercial just dropped an f-bomb. Here is the commercial:

The consensus around the blogosphere seems to be that she says something close like “abso-freakin-lutely” or “abso-friggin-lutely”, but whatever she says combined with her accent sure makes it sound like “fuck”, especially the first time around.

Oh, and congratulations to the clever marketing firm who with one syllable got us talking… even got me to pick up my laptop and write a blog post the moment I saw the “Windows 7 was my idea” spot.
