that American humans consume vulgar, prurient, stupid stuff at the clip of six hours a day, for this both TV and we need to answer. Television's biggest minute-by-minute appeal is that it engages without demanding. One can rest while undergoing stimulation. Receive without giving. [It] resembles other things mothers call "special treats"...

This ad manages to make fun of itself... advertisers, and the great U.S. watching/consuming crowd. In fact the ad's uxorious in its flattery of only one person: the viewer, Joe B., who can't help but discern the ironic contradiction... The commercial invites complicity between its own witty irony and veteran-viewer Joe's cynical appreciation of that irony. It invites Joe into an in-joke the Audience is the butt of.
