NBC/Chevy/Olympics Commercial

It's called BAD TASTE.

Carrying your dead friend's frozen body around with you at the Winter Olympics is not funny, even if he has "USA" painted on his dead, frozen chest.

Sending him down the luge track is not funny.

Chipping ice off his body to keep your mixed drink cold is not funny. (In fact, it's probably called cannibalism.)

And if you think this commercial is going to get me to watch the Olympics, you are dead wrong. The sad thing is, the Parents Television Council and those ultra-holier-than-thou "family" organizations boycott Nip/Tuck and The Book of Daniel, which - yes - both have dark themes. But at least they aren't skippy and happy and all cartoony about eating your dead friend's skin through your mixed drink.

I can't find the commercial online, but if I do, I'll share it with you.
