Depends have started marketing to fat slobs now? Underwear shields?

[preslove]

I've seen the commercial a few times. why is everyone assuming this is something strictly for fat people? I don't get it.

They're shifting the marketing from old people to guys who look like their spokesman.

 

[PottedMeat]

Are these for urine or for feces? Im going to guess urine after looking at the pad.

maybe both.

it's a market that can't be ignored:

If the op ever suffers from stroke-induced incontinence I'm going to laugh my ass off (and you can count on it that mine won't leak).

Well, I am pretty sure he did have a stroke, we will have to wait and see on the rest. And I am already laughing my ass off that the OP got such a wrong headed idea of this commercial just because the spokesperson wasn't a talking skeleton.

It is better to remain silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

Especially when the spokesperson in question is a former NFL defensive lineman who played on a Superbowl-winning team.

It's a medical condition moron, how fucking ignorant can one be ?

That "fat fuck" is Tony Siragusa, former NFL defensive lineman and current TV analyst. They must have paid him well.

I saw that too. They must have paid him Powerball jackpot level money to do something like that.

I'm not talking about the traditional marketing of adult diapers to old people. Hopefully I live long enough to have to depend on them. But, this seems like depends are moving into a new market, namely fat fucking walruses. This is new, and horrifying.

Anyway, did anyone watching espn see this commercial?

Put yourself in the shoes of an 80 year old man, once athletic and playing ball with alkemyst's dad, and now his wife is dead, his children have abandoned him, and he can't control his own bodily excretions. He thinks about hanging himself every night and had the the strength to do so, he would. Now a company hires a masculine male role model to try and glamorize their dismal existence in just the slightest, and you want to take that fantasy away from them. Great job.

As one who is very close to someone with Multiple Sclerosis (he is only 45) which can affect the bladder and bowels it is nice to know that these things exist.

OP you should really choose your words carefully before opening your hole and showing what a fucktard you are.

So, I was watching a bit of Monday night football on my favorite pirate sports feed, which is coming in from canada, and this weird commercial comes on for some kind of depends "shield" telling me to go to defendyourmanhood.com, or some shit. The spokesman is some fat fuck saying that "leaks" aren't that big of a deal and these mini diapers look great!

1) Did this commercial come on in the USA?
2) Jesus fucking christ, what the goddamn fuck is wrong with North America?
3) BARF

Not all fat peopel are slobs and not all slobs are fat, not all fat people are fucks and not all fucks are fat.

But you sir are an insensitive a-hole and I hope someday you have gushing anal leakage in a public place.

thank you and and have a pleasant day.

Because the op is a moron.

Well said!

I can't believe I had to get to the second page to get this.

Listen, all jokes aside, uncontrollable anal leakage is a real condition and it doesn't just affect fat out of shape people. If you have IBS you can have leakage problems. People with Crohn's or colitis. People who have had intestinal cancer. People with hemorrhoids.

Seriously, this isn't a laughing matter, nor is it an opportunity to target out of shape men.

On a less serious note, it might be worth keeping a pack of these around for those times when I've had a little too much to eat on mexican night...
