quote:
It reminded me of a commercial for Comcast Communications where these parents have a new baby, and the Dad is buying the kid a new tricycle online.
He says, "Look, honey, this is Da Bomb!" If that phrase wasn't dead already, the commercial surely killed it.
Man, do I hate that commercial. Just because of that line.
When are advertisers going to learn that it is never, ever okay to use slang in ads?
I saw that episode of Without a Trace too. I was a little surprised to hear that term in a TV show -- or at all, since I think the last time I heard it was in grade school -- but I thought it was an appropriate use of it. Much better than that Comcast commercial.
When I first learned the term back in grade school, I was told it stood for "Mom Who Loves Fucking", which I think makes more sense, despite the awkwardness of the pronunciation.
