MOCKINGBURGH SURVEY: THE LEAFGUARD 9/11 COMMERCIAL

On the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, LeafGuard ran a commercial in which their spokesman comes out, says he was late getting there because he was at the coffee pot talking about the Sept. 11 attacks with coworkers, and hopes nothing like that happens again. He then abruptly segues to clogged gutters. What did you think about the commercial?

A)  Maybe "folksy" wasn't the way to go when talking about a mass death

B) Maybe they could have stopped trying to sell gutters for a full 30 seconds

C)  It would have been comical if it weren't so appalling
