Have you seen this ad on TV?

I think it solves a problem that no one, anywhere, has.

The scene opens with a flustered mom-type of character, surrounded by small children armed with spilling tuperware. She’s on her hands and knees, scrubbing. She looks up at the camera and says:

“Sure, I’d love new FLOORS!
But who has time to shop for FLOORING?”

Like, forget the expense of flooring, or the time it takes for your good-for-nothing contractors to lay down the flooring, or the way your already-spilling-things-from-tupperware family of heathen quintuplets will go stir-crazy while your open concept living-room/dining room/kitchen is re-floored. No no, what really turns people off flooring is the time it takes to look at flooring samples.

Brilliant. Who says there’s nothing on TV?
