 | | After all, Doritos surely doesn't mean for us to think, "Yes, I want to be like that Creepy Guy, or the peeping-tom cheerleader." There are two problems with this. |
 | | His peers think he's a real card, but his children are of course bored and mortified; substitute clueless ad execs and their notion of what "the kids" think is funny these days, and you get the idea. |
 | | The other problem is that while Doritos is poking fun at the stupidity of the "extreme" idea, it is also, in fact, selling a chip called Doritos Extreme—which is asinine. |
