Lol. To answer your question seriously, I only know one person who owns a bowflex, and he's a cool fellow.

But, powerflex technology! Only bowflex has it.


In answer to your question: It certainly appears as though they believe their target market is a box of tools.

Yes, because most people are tools. Like someone would would take offense at a Bowlex add.

Actually, tv commercials have the ability to piss me off way more than they should be able. Mostly because they show what company thinks of society and my fellow man.

Most commercials do not fill me with hope for the future. Unless they feature singing raisins.

My post came off more serious than I intended it. Just saying that it was meant in a joking fashion. Aside from the fact that we are all tools. :p

Selectively angry, selectively.

That said... this iPhone upgrade is not making me happy.

ahah the guy in the commercial was a definate douchebag. don't know anyone who owns a bowflex becuase they go to an actual gym where there is more equipment to use rather than just resistance training.

I do love seeing adds like that (and for all 'get thin quick' machines) when they have before and after pictures. Its my conspiracy theory belief that the 'after' pic is what the person was and is currently... the before picture is photoshoped to make them look big.

No, just the people who market them, because apparently the only people who care about physical fitness are Guidos.

I've always thought that was funny. I can just imagine his "fat friends" seeing him the next day, "Thanks for mentioning me on TV, bro... Kinda makes your gift of Hawaiian shirts seem a little less generous though."

I came in here expecting a poll and see no poll. I wanna know what this guy did with Serapth.

I know. I mean, the topic is a fucking question, and still no poll? Bowflex must make him so mad he could not control what he was doing.

And yes, that dude is a tool. I bet he was nice when he was fat :D
