from tv.
BOOOO!
The ad has been pulled from certain markets for obvious reasons (it looks as if he's doing that whackin' it dance), you may have remembered me making a topic on this a while back to no fanfare.
Well, now here's proof it existed. (btw ignore the Jack in the Box ad)
I thought this was HYSTERICAL but apparently people will get offended over anything these days.
RIP Rappin' Pasta Dude.

The two new versions of the commercial are just terribly lame. They neutered him of his annoying rappin' voice and slowed him down so it just sounds off, and of course the lack of the funny as hell dance.
They're just...not funny.

I see no video, dude.
EDIT: There it is. Huh. I saw nothing wrong with that, other than crappy animation.

Never mind what he's doing, the guy looks like an anthropomorphisised vibrator.

I'm embarassed to say it, but I don't think I'm getting the joke. What is obscene in that commercial? Just looks like a pasta with arms and legs getting beaten by a family for some reason.

The dance that he does at first (moving his hands back and forth in a slapping motion near his er...pasta crotch) could be considered offensive by some, IE most parents groups or whatever. It doesn't bother me any, I thought seeing phallic pasta making sort of lewd gestures on TV was funny. Apparently another reason was that some considered the RAPPING part of it offensive or simply alienating in a way, which I just find sad. Worst of all, why should we be offended by a tube of pasta doing a slightly offensive dance...it's JUST PASTA. IT HAS NO RACE OR SEX. It's crazy. The new cuts of the ad still have Pasta Dude rapping, it's just slowed down (the voice inexplicably redubbed), and that certain gesture has been removed. Then there's another where the family LIKES Pasta Dude

It's like that episode of Family Guy where Peter invents that toy that's basically a vibrator shaped like a cucumber.
I would have marked if the wife would have picked up the Pasta Dude and excused herself for a few moments. Then I could imagine this add getting pulled. As it stands, it looks like a commercial they might hark on in an edition of "I Love the 80s." Except...um...it's not the 80s? Either way, mark down Pasta Dude and Freecreditreport.com guy as the 00s nominees for "future commercial obscurity." Or at least for "most likely to be the answer to a trivia question ten years from now."

Lets see, a piece of pasta that looks like a penis and is doing Norman Smiley's big wiggle?
Yeah, I can see why it got pulled.

Had to look it up on youtube. That was just disturbing. Not the hand humping, just the weirdness of it all.
