Under Armour Commercial Rant

Dear Under Armour, Please stop using the unatainable male image of muscularity in your commercials. No one can look that good! It's extremely damaging to those of us who have loved McDonald's and Krispy Kreme while watching TV and playing video games all these years rather than eating properly and living in a gym. Why do you think it's ok to make exteremly tight fitting clothes!?!?! Marketing to the people who use your product the most is unethical. I'm sorry, I'm just really angry at Under Armour these days because it's damaging to my self esteem that people who WORK THEIR *kitten* OFF to look a certain way can get paid to look that way!

    When it's cold outside, I like to run in my UA coldgear. Compression shirt, gloves, beanie, and tights. I look like a pregnant shadow.

    The problem is you haven’t purchased UA’s sunglasses yet. They work like beer goggles but improve the way you look while wearing their merchandise and check yourself out in the mirror at the gym. Well worth the 3 easy payments of $99.95 + shipping and handling.

    Haha.. Love this!

    Wonder how long it will take the VS chick to find this and get pissy...

    Long enough to misconstrue it and then fish for praise and compliments because she's having an "off day" today.

    I'd just like to point out that breast size has little to do with what you eat or what kind of exercise you do. Even when I'm skinny, I still have D-DD boobs.

    This is the most entertaining thing I've read so far today. Bahaha.
