Big corporations have marketing and development departments, right, to decide on their new products or product features? And, theoretically, the people who work in those departments don't spend their entire days doing illegal drugs, correct?
So who thought up the new washing machine whose main feature is that you only need to add detergent once every six months? I may be (ha!) lazy, but even I do not find pouring some Tide in every load to be a taxing endeavor. And, then, the new dish soap that conditions your (delicate, female) hands while you are scrubbing your pots? Didn't Palmolive go with Madge and that angle 35 years ago? And haven't we in the intervening 35 years decided that dudes can wash dishes too? (I mean, I'd be willing to consider in our metrosexual world that they considered some men might worry about dishpan hands, except the commercial? All women admiring their manicures, while a talking sponge pervs over their hands. Okay, so maybe these people are using crack during the workday.)

It's a rapid industrial response to the current economy:
Soon we'll only be able to afford laundry detergent once every six months.
And we won't be able to afford either dishwashers or moisturizer, so they may as well combine both at once.
See, American companies really are flexible and innovative when the government takes over all their debts and they can work without the burden of, you know, paying back any loans or, for that matter, paying any American workers.
I luv the pervy sponge!!Almost makes me want to do dishes...nahhh.
Oh, the talking pervy sponge creeps me *right* out. Especially when you start extending the mental image to squeezing out the (dripping) sponge...ew.
Wait. Am I not supposed to extend the mental image? hahaha
Dammit, sometimes I wish I watched more TV: this thread leaves me far behind. Or should I be pleased about that?
I see *no* upside to knowing about the talking sponge. None. :-)
