I am not over 60.

[madshutterbug.livejournal.com]

Neither am I. And as mentioned, I got 20 out of 20. So how many did you get? The person that sent it along to me got 18. *G*

[fatfred.livejournal.com]

20.
A lot of them rhyme.

[batwrangler.livejournal.com]

That's advertising jingles for you. :)

[fatfred.livejournal.com]

Better than the ads we read today!
Yes, there are some very cool visuals out there, but how often have you looked at something and wanted to know what kind of crack the execs were smoking when they greenlighted it?

[kasheesty.livejournal.com]

I got 18 out of 20.

And I am *so not 60* LOL!

[madshutterbug.livejournal.com]

Yup. See my comment reply above. *G*

[batwrangler.livejournal.com]

I missed 1, 9, and 12. (I'm under 40, just barely.)

[madshutterbug.livejournal.com]

Yes, for 1 & 9 I think one may need to be in their late 40's and a big TV baby. For 1 definitely; I don't remember exactly when that ad campaign changed, but by the middle 60's at least.

[kasheesty.livejournal.com]

The ones I didn't know were #6 and #15 and I'm 44 yrs. (young?)old.

[starcat-jewel.livejournal.com]

20/20, age 52. #9 is actually before my time, but I think I picked it up in the occasional rerun.

And yeah, advertising jingles are no contest -- they're designed to stick in your head, for good or ill.

[mathochist.livejournal.com]

I wasn't sure about #1; I didn't know #'s 4 & 6 at all.
I'm 41.
