I KNEW this chick was stoned.

Well, you'd have to be to buy an Apple

Or maybe not. But I still prefer PCs.

Who the hell is she because I certainly have seen some stoned chick in any Apple ads.

Joe · Post by **Joe** » 2002-11-24 12:04pm

The girl (who was fairly attractive, actually) who did the Switch ad where the girl complains about a PC eating her very good paper.

HAHAHAHA I just saw the picture. Oh dear ....

Whatever.

Cal Wright · Post by **Cal Wright** » 2002-11-24 12:23pm

heh. nice to know I was right. That was my first thought when I saw the commercial was 'Hey that chick is stoned.' I don't see how she could be such a big star. Her commercial spot sucked.

Did they take this ad off the air ? I ve never seen it and this is only the second time Ive heard about it.

Durandal · Post by **Durandal** » 2002-11-24 02:10pm

No, the ad ran for quite some time. You can still see it at apple.com/switch. Since running, it's basically spawned a Cult of Ellen Feiss.

Sorry, but I don't believe her that it wasn't pot. Her eyes are obviously bloodshot, and her sentence structure is exactly like mine when I'm stoned (she kind of trails off a lot). I guess she could have been on 'shrooms, though.

I find that many of those commercials suck. Some of them are moderately effective, but the vast majority of them are just drivel. The Anakin Skywalker parody is better than any of them, anyway.

And yes, she definitely looks stoned on something. I would say cocaine, or possibly even heroine.

Joe · Post by **Joe** » 2002-11-24 02:26pm

I did some research. She claims it was Benadryl. Bullshit.

Post by **Sea Skimmer** » 2002-11-24 02:37pm

I watch huge amounts of TV and I've never seen that ad.

The Anakin parody was fucking hillarious. heh. I wonder if there are gonna be anymore like it?

Most of the people in the commercials come off as computer-illiterate retards who should not reproduce.

Some people latch on to the most inane things. How the hell could she be a fucking celebrity if all she did was looked stoned on a commercial? It's not like it's anything really significant.

Yes but she is at least mildly hot and the pedophile crowd is probably quite happy that she's only 15 or 16 so she's got stoner's, pedophiles, and a modest quota of high school guys thinking that she's the shit which is enough of a fanbase for a platinum album these days. I wonder when she'll make her first single.

Ever been on various antihistamines? Part of her look might be from lingering effects from alergies and others from the side-effects of Benadryl.

Definately needs to be remixed in and released on her second album:
"That funny smell in the green room"

Evil Sadistic Bastard · Post by **Evil Sadistic Bastard** » 2002-11-24 11:44pm

Adapted from the song by Afroman " because I got high"

That is one damn funny song.

Like I said his song needs to be remixed (or sampled your pick) and put on her second album as the debut single, its video will feature her in the green room before the commecial smoking up and singing the track

Somebody should make a mock commercial with Linux as the advertising object.

"After my PC locked up for the hundredth time in a single day, I decided to install Linux. It's been running smoothly ever since, and I'm not going to use Windows again. I'm Jon Doe, and I'm a geek."

Apple must be completely out of their tree to attempt to market off Windows stability problems now. The Win 9X family ('when do you want to crash this hour?') is toast and the NT family (NT, W2K, XP) doesn't crash on decent hardware with good drivers. The stability selling point is gone.
