Dave Garrett Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 Not the same company, but one of the channels that runs lots of old TV sitcoms and dramas from the 50s and 60s (MeTV, probably) used to run a similar catheter ad incessantly late at night. Guess they had established with some confidence that the majority of viewers between midnight and 5am watching shows like Combat, Sgt. Bilko, Dobie Gillis, Route 66, Car 54 Where Are You, and so on were aging boomer males with prostates the size of grapefruit. Quote
catesta Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 I tune in to all those channels like MeTV, antenna TV, Buzzr, etc. I love to watch the old shows but the commercials are depressing as shit. Ads for walk in tubs, catheters, emergency alert, hearing aid devices, hair procedures, ambulance chasing lawyers, reverse mortgages, blah blah blah. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted November 11, 2015 Report Posted November 11, 2015 I always try to buy one of each. Quote

Got hearing aids some six years back, on my second pair now -- much needed, major benefits/relief. On the rest I'll pass -- I hope forever. Quote
JSngry Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Posted November 11, 2015 I know pain - and I don't want any more of it. Especially when I cath. Quote

Those suckers look pretty sweet! Quote

Bill Nelson Posted November 12, 2015 Report Posted November 12, 2015 As I said to the TSA screener when examining my carry-on, "Who needs a home when you have a colostomy bag?" Quote
Tim McG Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 I have been forced to use a catheter. It totally sucks. The pain of insertion is unimaginable. Sorry to spoil the party. Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 Interesting choice of words, but I feel you pain. Quote
