Eggvertising!

[yendi]

CBS is taking out ad space on eggs!

I know that some folks will be appalled at this idea. Me? I think it's fucking brilliant. And as a bonus, the ads should help jostle the memories of those folks who don't look at the expiration dates. "This egg's at the head of The Class? Waitaminute! The Class was the first show cancelled this season! Honey, we need to go shopping!"

:/ Sure, why not just have advertising screens inserted under our eyelids so they can access our sleep time, too.

Pfft. That's not how they do it. Don't you watch Futurama?

Ah, now we know that CBS has a bunch of rotten eggs in our future.

Good plan...

but it really should be Fox, instead of CBS.

New Fox shows are almost guaranteed to be cancelled by the time the eggs expire.

True, but only if the shows are any good.

Ads on eggs.... brilliant.

Expiration dates on egg cartons are usually even more flexible than those used for milk. With milk, the sniff test usually lets you know if milk a few days or even a week past the date is still safe to consume.

With eggs, you fill a clear glass or bowl with water. If the egg floats, throw it out. If it stays at the bottom, you can still fry it up.

Now I'm craving eggs, damnit. Maybe an omelette for dinner...
