[Link] Welcome to Good Mythical More. – [Link] Can we guess the product given only the weird marketing slogan? Probably. Definitely. – [Rhett] But first, can we freeze a frame? – [Link] But what we got to – [Link] do is just be as full of emotion as possible. – [Link] And then who knows what they said. – [Rhett] So it will be, you will blurry. – [Link] Well, you would have been blurry? – [Rhett] You’ll be blurry? – [Link] I must’ve been the blurry. – [Rhett] I don’t want to be blurry. – [Link] Was was he, was I blurry? – [Stevie] Slogans, slogans, slogans. We all know them. – [Stevie] Of course, Rhett, your favorite slogan is. – [Rhett] Be here now. – [Stevie] Yeah. Yeah. And and not to be confused with Link’s favorite slogan. – [Link] Be there later. – [Link] Listen, I’ll see you when I get there. I’ll be there when I get there. – [Stevie] Okay. These are some slogans that are maybe not around anymore. – [Stevie] Maybe for good reason. Maybe, we should bring them back. That’s not the format. – [Stevie] But we can also discuss that. For instance. – [Stevie] What do you think the product was, associated with the slogan – [Stevie] “Sitting On Faces Since 2001” – [Link] Since 2001? – [Stevie] You know, the year. – [Rhett] Sitting on faces. – [Link] Since 2001, sitting on faces. – [Rhett] Now get your mind out of the gutter. – [Rhett] If you’re thinking this is actual sitting on faces. – [Link] My mind’s not in a gutter, Queen. – [Rhett] What else sits on faces? – [Link] What else? Yes. – [Rhett] Besides other people, like something like a mustache sits on your face. – [Rhett] You know what I’m saying? Like, what’s something that sits on your face? – [Link] Like a slippery hat? – [Rhett] No, but like around 2001. – [Link] Well, ever since. What sits on your face? – [Link] Glasses, sit on your face? – [Rhett] Yeah, exactly. So, glasses that don’t have sides. Have you seen these? – [Rhett] The ones that just stay on the bridge of your nose and they don’t have sides. – [Link] Yeah. What are they called, though? – [Rhett] I don’t know, face sitting glasses. – [Link] It’s a failed product. – [Rhett] Sitting on faces since 2001 – [Link] Mustaches are not a product. – [Rhett] Not a product. Well, I mean, you can get a fake one. – [Link] Fake mustache. – [Rhett] I wore one for quite some time, actually. – [Link] Starting in 2001. But hold on. Before we settle on glasses, – [Link] there’s got to be a ton of things that sits. – [Rhett] Foundation. – [Link] Makeup. – [Rhett] Yeah, sitting on faces. – [Link] Sitting on faces. – [Rhett] Hold on, are there, like, – [Rhett] little Beanie Baby type products that people put on their faces? – [Rhett] I don’t know. You know, like, there’s a – [Rhett] little like it’s kind of like an Elf on the Shelf, – [Rhett] but it’s a thing that sits on your face. We should sell that, if not. – [Link] What about cucumbers? Cucumber slices? – [Link] It’s kind of like the milk campaign or the pork campaign. – [Link] It’s just, like, a farmer’s market display? – [Link] Sliced cucumbers sitting on faces since 2001, – [Link] where they were first introduced into spas. – [Rhett] I do think that some sort of little like sitting little figurines – [Rhett] that have like, are soft and sticky and you can put them on your face – [Rhett] and then you go like this and then you have things sitting on your face. – [Rhett] I feel like that could be a trend. – [Stevie] Remember that Christmas face? – [Link] Yeah, it could be. – [Rhett] Yeah, yeah. It’s like when we made Grace’s face into a ski slope. – [Stevie] Yeah, that was cool. – [Link] Christmas thing. And then we never did it again. Christmas face. – [Stevie] Yeah. – [Rhett] We did Christmas booty. – [Link] Was Christmas booty after Christmas face? – [Rhett] Christmas booty was the last one. – [Link] Oh, okay. We are going with glasses for 300. – [Stevie] The answer is slippery hats. No, it is sunglasses. Sunglass Shack. – [Stevie] Here’s the, um, advertisement. – [Link] Oh, and it’s just on – [Rhett] It’s just a Sunglass Shack? – [Stevie] Oh, I guess it’s just the, yeah, the store front. – [Stevie] Why is it, is it the juxtaposition of the font choice and the slogan is interesting? – [Stevie] it’s like such a plain, serious font and such a – [Rhett] This is a serious message. Sitting on people’s faces is serious business, Stevie. – [Link] Since 2001. – [Rhett] So they know that this is a joke. The people at the Sunglass Shack. – [Stevie] Should hope so. – [Rhett] And you know what? They came up with this slogan not in 2001 – [Rhett] because 2001, this is too risqué. – [Rhett] 2001, the city council would’ve said something about this. – [Rhett] That’s how much things have changed. – [Rhett] That’s how much we’ve slipped morally, since 2001 – [Link] Plus, typically you don’t have a slogan that has said a year in in that year. – [Rhett] Unless you’re starting with confidence. – [Rhett] You start with confidence. – [Link] Yeah. – [Stevie] Okay. – [Rhett] Ignore that. – [Stevie] “You can never be too thin.” – [Link] You can never be too thin? – [Rhett] Okay. This is problematic. – [Link] It’s not, and that’s not true. – [Rhett] Can I say that? – [Stevie] Yeah, I might have emphasized the wrong thing. – [Link] you can be too thin. – [Stevie] You can never be too thin. – [Stevie] You never can be, you can never be “too” thin. – [Link] You can never be too thin. – [Link] What’s something that the thinner it is, this is like a – [Rhett] Like a wafer of some sort. – [Link] or a phone case. – [Rhett] Or a phone. Do you remember the first few years of the iPhone – [Rhett] that it was getting smaller. You remember? You may not remember this. – [Rhett] It was getting smaller, – [Rhett] and things getting smaller was where things were headed. – [Rhett] And everybody was like, look how small my phone is. – [Link] Then they got bigger? – [Rhett] And then all of a sudden it was like, Well, look how big my phone is. – [Link] Yeah, I went into a shop. I don’t know. – [Link] Somebody makes a phone that flips over – [Link] and there are all these screens, they just fold on themselves. – [Rhett] It’s not all, just two screens, right? – [Link] It was too much. – [Rhett] Can you, do they have a trifold? – [Link] No. Maybe they do. You just roll it out. – [Rhett] I want a phone that folds out into a long thing. – [Link] You can never be too thin. You say? – [Link] What’s something that you want to spread pretty thin? – [Link] You know, like, a good old, the most spreadable of butters. – [Rhett] Yeah. That’s not a good, because you want, you think you want thick butter – [Rhett] You know what I’m saying? you don’t think you want thin butter. – [Link] The thinner the better? Sheets. – [Rhett] And maybe this is an advertisement for a cream that thins your hair out. – [Link] Right. Right. Hair loss cream. – [Rhett] Which was also a trend in the early 2000s. – [Link] Uh, well, hold on. There’s no since 2000s. – [Rhett] Oh, is it? – [Link] That was the last. – [Rhett] You can never be too thin since 2001. – [Link] No, come on. There’s got to be other things besides wafers, hair and phones. – [Rhett] Well, if this is a weight loss product, then that’s a real problem – [Rhett] and I don’t think at any point, they said that, unless it’s really, really old. – [Link] Thin, like, what about alleyway? – [Rhett] How about paper? – [Link] Like one of those? – [Stevie] Yes, it’s an advertisement for alleyways. – [Link] In Europe, you know, European alleyways. You can never be too thin. – [Link] that was like a medieval slogan, I think. – [Link] You can never be too thin bring it together. – [Rhett] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember that medieval slogan. – [Rhett] Can it go back to medieval times? What about a very thin pasta? – [Rhett] Like an angel hair? Like there’s a new angel hair. – [Link] There we go. – [Rhett] And it’s so thin that it just looks like, – [Rhett] it literally looks like a clump of hair and water. – [Link] What about – [Rhett] You can never be too thin. – [Link] What about window tinting? – [Rhett] Oh, yeah, yeah. Is your window tinted? – [Rhett] Yes, it is. But you can barely tell because you can never be too thin. – [Rhett] With your window tinted. – [Link] It doesn’t come together. – [Rhett] What about a thin T-shirt that shows your nips. That’s a thing people like to do. – [Link] Yeah, or your body hair pattern. – [Rhett] As long as it’s still hanging on you. – [Link] Your body hair pattern, well you can never be too thin. – [Rhett] Pantyhose. – [Link] Panties. – [Rhett] Why did you jump so quickly from pantyhose to panties? – [Link] I just said what I thought – [Link] when you said pantyhose, the first thing I thought of was panties. – [Rhett] What do you even need to be thin? – [Rhett] I think we probably had already said it, right? You just didn’t stop us – [Stevie] Slippery hats. – [Rhett] Okay. – [Link] What was the good answer we had? – [Stevie] You were dancing around, the correct – [Link] TV’s. It’s a television. A flat screen television. You can never be too thin. – [Stevie] That’s almost better than what it actually is. – [Link] Toasters? – [Stevie] It’s from the Snack Factory for pretzel thins. – [Rhett] Oh, wafers. I was close with wafers. – [Link] I thought she was talking about an electronic wafer. – [Rhett] Oh, hey, these are really, really good. – [Link] These have been known to be in my house. – [Rhett] And by good, I’m talking about Titan phone booths. – [Rhett] They’re my favorite to phone booths. – [Rhett] Is that a phone booth or is it just a sign? What’s on the other side of that sign? – [Link] I think a very thin phone. – [Rhett] Phone booths can never be too thin. – [Stevie] Okay, how about, “the more you play with it, the harder it gets” – [Rhett] Okay. Well, I mean. – [Link] The more you play with. – [Rhett] What’s first thing that you think of? – [Link] Rubik’s Cube. This is a game. – [Rhett] This is purposely sexual. So it’s probably around 2001? – [Rhett] The more you play with it, the harder it gets. – [Link] It could be a game involving something inside of pants? – [Link] Fishing out of your pants? – [Rhett] What if it’s some sort of putty? – [Link] It’s a putty? – [Link] Well, Play-Doh. – [Rhett] The more you play with it, the harder it gets. – [Rhett] So, don’t play with it too much, kids. – [Link] I think the more you play with it, the more difficult, you know? Not the – [Rhett] What’s a game that gets harder the more you play it? – [Link] A Rubik’s Cube, man. – [Rhett] No, it gets easier. – [Link] No, it doesn’t. You’re scrambling it. – [Stevie] I will say, the ad for this one is also, like, insane. Well, – [Link] The more you play with it, the harder it gets. – [Rhett] Oh, so it’s somebody playing with a Rubik’s cube, but it look – [Rhett] But it’s down there in their crotch, so it’s really selling it. – [Rhett] It’s a man turned away from the camera in image one. – [Link] But his head’s turned back – [Link] There you go. – [Rhett] And then the second image, he’s holding up the Rubik’s Cube. – [Rhett] I’m going with Link on this. It’s a Rubik’s Cube. – [Stevie] Okay, final answer? – [Link] But it’s the newer one with more sides – [Stevie] Good. That qualifier is helpful. – [Stevie] The answer is a Sega joystick back in 1990. – [Link] Oh, Sega, Overhead shot of that, look at that. – [Rhett] Why he’s got his fingers like that? Nobody grips a joystick like that. – [Link] That’s so weird, he’s got an overhead shot of the knob? – [Rhett] Can he just do that? – [Link] They didn’t want to show the stick part of the joystick, – [Link] so they just showed the knob part. – [Rhett] The more you play with it. – [Link] The harder it gets. That’s not true. – [Link] You’re sitting there, eyes glued to the writhing arcade, quality graphics, – [Link] pulling and squeezing your knob. – [Link] Now you’re breathing heavily over the digital stereo sound. – [Link] Now you’re shooting all over the place, but it’s no use. – [Rhett] Oh, my gosh. – [Link] Game over. Joystick, $34.99. – [Rhett] Now look at this. – [Link] This is a British ad. – [Rhett] Did you ever know – [Link] the Brits have no standards. – [Rhett] That Sega was ages backwards – [Rhett] to be this good takes ages. To be this good takes Sega. – [Link] What? I didn’t know that. – [Rhett] Sega is ages backwards. – [Rhett] Redo my whole childhood! – [Link] That is crazy. You buried the lead, Stevie. Yeah. Knuckle deep. – [Link] Ages. The more you play with it, the harder it gets, already knew that – [Link] Sega backwards is ages, did not know that. – [Rhett] It was hard because it had a C button. – [Rhett] They introduced a C button on that thing and no one was like, – [Rhett] Why do we need a C button? – [Rhett] What are we going to do with this C button? You know? – [Link] Here’s the real problem with this. It’s not true. – [Link] It’s not true. The more you play a Sega, it doesn’t get harder. – [Rhett] Right? Well, maybe if you up the difficulty level. – [Link] It doesn’t. This is just in poor taste. – [Stevie] “After dinner, you can stab your date.” – [Link] This is the date council, you know, like the, is it a fruit or vegetable? – [Link] I don’t know what a date is. A date is a dried. – [Link] What is it? A date is a dried what? – [Rhett] a date? – [Rhett] A date is a dried date. – [Link] We need a new name for a dried date. – [Rhett] I don’t believe it’s a raisin grape situation. – [Rhett] Or a plum prune situation. Did you know prunes are plums? – [Link] Yeah. Say it again, Stevie. – [Rhett] I didn’t know that until 2001. – [Link] The more you dry it? – [Stevie] What? – [Link] The what? – [Rhett] You can stab your date after dinner. It is a toothpick. – [Rhett] And the ad has the toothpick going through a date, which is a dried date. – [Link] He’s right. It’s a toothpick ad. – [Rhett] I bet my old Sega on it. – [Stevie] I love that it is not true. It’s for a kebab restaurant. Here’s a subway sign. – [Link] “After dinner, you can stab your date.” So, no dates involved? – [Stevie] No. This is like actual violence. – [Rhett] Literally, after you use these to eat meat off of, you can stab someone. – [Link] You can murder your, what’s another word for date? – [Rhett] Acquaintance. – [Stevie] Lover. – [Rhett] Lover. – [Link] Potential lover. – [Stevie] Softball mate. – [Rhett] After dinner, you can stab your softball team mate. – [Link] Burger Kebab. – [Rhett] I don’t like this ad. – [Link] You suck Burger Kebab. – [Rhett] Yeah, y’all should be shut down for that. – [Stevie] I mean, who knows if they’re still around. They were around since 2001. – [Stevie] “The first time is never the best.” – [Link] True. Totally true. Sometimes it takes 26 years to figure it out. – [Rhett] This is an ad really for long term marriage. – [Link] Yeah, right. – [Rhett] Okay? This is an ad for long term marriage, monogamy. – [Rhett] This is the monogamy council, otherwise known as the church. – [Link] And they had another slogan. Just stick with it. – [Rhett] Yeah, yeah. This is a church ad. – [Link] Just stick with sticking with it. – [Rhett] After dinner you can stab your date again, – [Rhett] and again, and again, and again, and again. Forever. – [Link] Burger Kebab. – [Rhett] So, we’re right, right?. – [Stevie] Oh, that’s all? That’s your only guess? – [Rhett] Yeah. It’s just which church is it. – [Stevie] Truthfully I don’t, this one really doesn’t make sense. – [Stevie] I mean it makes sense, in the sense that like you want people – [Stevie] to buy more of your product, you know? – [Stevie] So, you want thick butter, not thin butter, but it doesn’t. – [Stevie] It’s for Campari from 1981. – [Link] Geraldine Chaplin talks about her first time. The first time is never, so – [Rhett] It’s an acquired taste. Is that what they’re trying to say? – [Rhett] Who’s got, I mean, think about all the time people had back in the day. – [Rhett] You got to a page in a magazine, that had this much literature on it – [Rhett] and you were like, well, I got nothing else to do. – [Rhett] I’m waiting for my program to come on in an hour. – [Rhett] Done with my TV dinner. – [Rhett] I’m going to sit here and read about Geraldine Chaplin – [Rhett] and the first time she had Campari. – [Link] Well, I’m trying to read to figure out if it’s really about the Campari – [Link] or if it’s really about relations. – [Link] But I don’t have the patience to actually read. – [Rhett] She says a truly bittersweet experience. – [Rhett] Interviewer, could you be more specific? – [Link] It was like eating a mango. Okay. – [Rhett] I beg your pardon? Three question marks. – [Rhett] Well, I wasn’t crazy about it the first time either. – [Rhett] Yet, I was so intrigued by their unique ness. Their uniqueness? – [Link] Let’s hear another one. I get this. – [Stevie] This one is great. “It’s not for women.” – [Stevie] The slogan “It’s not for women.” – [Link] It’s not for women. It’s not for women. – [Rhett] It’s not for women. – [Link] I’m not taking the bait on this – [Rhett] Let’s cycle through all the things I’m not going to say. ((Laughing)) – [Link] It’s not for women? Uh, what about – [Stevie] Just repeat it some more, we can title this. They say “it’s not for women” – [Link] I’m thinking of so many things now – [Link] I’m electing to say nothing because I love – [Rhett] Love women. I love them. – [Link] I respect and ((Laughing)) – [Rhett] That’s part of love. – [Link] I just, like, I think they’re the better sex. Yeah, they’re better. – [Rhett] It’s not for women. – [Link] I trust women. I trust women. – [Link] I listen to women. – [Link] I got nothing but respect and admiration for women. – [Rhett] Thanks for all this you’re saying – [Link] I’ve never been a woman – [Rhett] Thanks for all you’ve said about women today. – [Link] From an outsider’s perspective. – [Link] What a wonderful thing to be a woman. – [Rhett] Right, right, right, right, right. – [Link] Uh, but this, losing, not for women. – [Rhett] I think I got it. I think I got it. I think I’ve arrived at it. – [Rhett] It’s not for woman. It’s not for woman. Is not for women. – [Rhett] I’m going to go with premature ejaculation. – [Link] There you go. There you go. – [Rhett] It’s an ad for premature ejaculation. – [Stevie] The council. Premature ejaculation council. – [Link] What about, like, serial killing? – [Rhett] Just in case you’re in a hurry. – [Link] Serial killing, not usually for women. – [Rhett] Yeah. Yeah, that’s true. – [Link] What is it? – [Rhett] Creepy looks? – [Link] Creepy looks. Right. – [Rhett] No, actually, those are for women, they’re just not by women. – [Rhett] We got all the creepy looks you need. – [Rhett] Men, we’ve got the creepy looks for you. – [Stevie] I really didn’t want to chime in and give you the answer – [Stevie] because you guys are doing so great. – [Link] What about, um? – [Stevie] Oh, yeah, go ahead. – [Link] I got nothing. I got nothing. – [Link] I think everything that women think they want can be for them. – [Rhett] I think it’s for. – [Link] Who am I to speak for women? – [Rhett] It’s for a tobacco. It’s for a tobacco. – [Rhett] It is for a chewing tobacco because that is not for women. – [Link] Unless they really want it. – [Rhett] In the South, lot’s of people had a grandma that would have snuff. – [Rhett] Y’all got any snuffing grandmas? – [Link] Snuff is chewing tobacco for women. – [Rhett] It’s an old woman in the south. – [Rhett] And it’s a really thin tobacco and they put it in their lips. – [Rhett] I had a grandma that had some. – [Link] It’s the worst. – [Stevie] It’s for Dr. Pepper Ten. Which, – [Rhett] Oh, this is recent. – [Stevie] sees that it’s basically just a Dr. Pepper with like a – [Rhett] I think we talked about that on this very show – [Link] is it not just a diet drink that’s not for women? – [Link] Ten bold tasting categories. – [Stevie] It’s like bolder than regular. – [Rhett] I think what they were trying to say and I’m not trying to defend the pepper, – [Rhett] even though I’m a big fan of the Dr. Pepper, is that it was a low cal drink. – [Rhett] They were trying to say this isn’t exclusively for women. – [Rhett] It’s not exclusively for women. – [Rhett] Like, guys, you can drink this and feel okay – [Link] Diet Coke’s for women, Coke Zero for men. I mean, it’s all marketing, of course. – [Link] It’s not. I don’t agree with it. But I think – [Rhett] I think Coke Zero is for women ((Music)) – [Rhett] I’m giving you a reverse birthday gift – [Rhett] because I’m giving you 20% off Mythical Society memberships – [Rhett] through the 18th of October. “
