I was having a relaxing homework evening at my good friend Annie's house when I asked her what commercials she had seen recently that she likes. She thought for a second, then said "The Dyson Vacuum commercials". Surprised, I asked why. Her answer was one that I would only expect from a girl... or maybe Braden. She said "Because he's a dreamy older man with a sexy, soothing voice." She then said something else that, for her sake, I will not publish online (but if you don't tell Annie I'll tell you if you ask me). Is this what the advertising world has come to? The woman's equivalent of a bikini clad beer girl is a vacuum pitching Clooney wanna be? Interesting. Well, it worked for Annie... I think she just threw out her old vacuum too...
Just in case anyone wants to see what Annie's taste in men is, click here:

I think it's just human nature. Who wants to be sold something by an ugly person? We respond better to a pleasent voice, a pretty face, a nice figure...
Now spending $600 or more on a Dyson because "he's dreamy" is a bit of a stretch. There's a certain price point where good looks aren't enough to make the sale.
