Here in Chicago we are subjected to our long-running commercials and phone numbers to dial.

Shit like Victory Auto Wreckers, Empire, etc.

But how bout this one? I think it's for some law office like Law-Ankin or some shit.

In the commercial the guy in the deep voice tells you to call 2-2-2-22-22.

Well, have u ever dialed this number while high? Did they end up being everything as advertised?

Or were they a ripoff artist? Did they know you were high, and did u say any crazy shit to them? Did they hang up on you as a result?

Yeah I called it. It was just a voice recording with directions to your dad's loose butt-hole. But everyone already knows those directions so really it was a waste of a phone call.

I thought that Javy Baez told us that Howard Akin's number was Six Million.

Why isn’t the slogan just dial two-two-two-two-two-two-two?

It still works rhythmically.

Even if you dial too many twos it would link your twos to the correct two number.

Or perhaps twenty-two twenty-two-two-two-two to dial the two number.

Maybe two-twenty-two-two-two-twenty-two to get to the two number.

You know me like that.

BC u might dial the wrong number of twos if u say just dial two.

You could hit twenty-two twos in a row and it will be the correct numbers of twos unless it takes you to an audio system that requires one to type a two to respond to the prompts one receives.

Look, I'm not gonna pretend like I know how phones work.

You don’t want to discuss the advantages of the rotary dial system?

Think about how large that dial would need to be to have a twenty-two option…

I have found that my fingers are too fat to dial a normal phone. Luckily I was able to mash the keypad to obtain a dialing wand. If I had a rotary phone I would have been lost entirely.

This made me think of the Empire Carpet Jingle. Never realized that commercial has been running since 1977

Yes, and Steve Stone was the first to tell us this.

Mistake in the original post. It wasn't Ankin, it was Lerner & Rowe.

You know what I trust more than calling 222-2222

- A Shawk in my hawttub
- A hungry grizzley behr with a steak in my pawket.

Funny thing, as I was typing that, a commercial for them came on the radio...

He also practices out in Nevada too. I guess they're now doing deaths from testosterone replacement or some shit from the commercial I saw.
