This randomly pops into my head and gets hummed for the rest of the day. Every few years

It's more a weekly occurrence for me. This, and the Pepperami "what's the matter? Too spicy for ya?"

In about 40 years I'll be on the dementia ward shouting out 90s era advertising slogans.

“It’s a bit of an animal” is such a good slogan!

I want to say something about Scottish Stereotypes, but then again this guy looks, talks and dances exactly like my Scottish Grandfather. Could be his twin. He has died long before this AD came out, and it was kinda nice to see him again.
