Voice Post: Nick's Doritos Stand Up Hour
Note: This should go without saying if you've ever read any entries on this LJ before, but this post isn't necessarily work-safe.

“Oh man, I was over at Josh and Sarah's on Saturday. You know, just hanging out with a couple of buds, and they have these new Doritos, right?
And the new Doritos slogan is none other than "Now Better Tasting". What the fuck? I mean, seriously. What advertising executive ass-clown came up with that one? How much are these fuckers getting paid? Like six figures, right? A couple of thousand large, and the best they could come up with is "Now Better Tasting"? I mean, what was that board meeting like?
"You know, Bob, I'm having second thoughts about this 'Now Less Crappy' motto of ours."
"Oh! Oh! I know! How about, 'Now Better Tasting'?"
"Oh Bob, you're a genius! Let me suck your dick!"
Mother fucker! I mean, seriously. Give me a million dollar deal, and I'm pretty sure I could come up with a better slogan than 'Now Better Tasting'.
Like:
Doritos - Now 75% less likely to give you AIDS!
Doritos - Better than eating out a chick with pubic lice.
Doritos - Jay Leno is totally not our spokesperson anymore.
Doritos - It ain't gonhorrea!
Doritos - That chick you used to date? Totally a raging cockmonger.

I mean, man, whatever. Ahh, I can't wait to hear someone try and transcribe this on LiveJournal. It's like, "Is 'ass-clown' one word or two? And do you hyphenate 'cockmonger'?"

I'm out. Peace!”

Ah, I sound totally dorky! But whatever! It's not like that's a big secret. No more voice posts when my nose is all plugged up from allergies!

Your voice isn't how I imagined it. Then again, I may have imagined it as the Voice of God.

Well, there are a couple of factors at work here:

1. Cellular phone
2. Digital .ogg file
3. Rampant allergies
4. Trying really hard not to laugh

But you now have a rough idea of what I sound like, more or less. ;)

:-) So did you write this all out, or was it all off-the-cuff?

Half-and-half? I didn't write anything out, but I had a couple of the Doritos "slogans" planned out already and knew I wanted to do the "intro --> meeting --> slogans" order.

Cool. :) And I'm totally a geek, but the transcription would look nicer if LJ had a bigger window to type it in, and allowed for formatting.

I have no idea. Personally, I couldn't discern any difference in the taste. But "NOW BETTER TASTING!" was in huge letters on the bag.

Josh is pouty because you stole his joke. Hehehe. I told him, if he doesn't want you to use his material he has to get his own livejournal. He's thinking about it.

What?! We were both totally making fun of it! He may have seen it first, but I was all over it! And, yeah, he should get his own LiveJournal, anyway.

Your voice is also way higher than I expected it to be.

No, I just had always heard it in a lower register in my head. It might be the stuffed nose.

I actually have a deeper voice on average, at least so I'm told, so it's probably the stuffed nose, some distortion on the part of the cell phone/recording, or a little bit of both. I've heard recordings of my voice before (I did some radio back in the day), and that voice post wasn't too representative of what I normally sound like, I don't think. I'll do another one in the future when my nose isn't plugged up, and we can compare then!

Your voice is a little higher than I expected, but it fits. And I would totally buy Doritos with those slogans.

I don't know why they're not using "Doritos: It Ain't Gonorrhea!" already.
