Are people who are usually home during the day somehow different from those of us who work outside of the home?
I ask this because I have the rare opportunity today to lounge around and watch daytime TV. Daytime TV has always sucked, so the fact that after all the news programs are over, the only thing to watch are silly talk shows, or court shows didn't really surprise me.

What is surprising to me are the commercials.

Of the 30,000 commercials I have seen today, 99% of them were for products that are supposed to alleviate ailments occurring in or around the ass. Why is that? I mean, I assume the advertisers pay their money to place their ads at certain times, because they think that their target audience is watching, right? So what is different about all of the unemployed, retired, people who work in the evening and stay at home parents, that they are all amazingly irregular, haunted with irritable bowel syndrome, have hemorrhoids or need softer toilet paper at greater volumes than the rest of us?

I have seen many of these commercials before, hell, even Bet's favorite Old Faithful commercial played today. But I have never seen them in such abundance before in my life. This leads me to believe that daytime staying-at-home leads to a miriad of butt problems. What gives?
