this just sounds wrong

['watching shows online, you only have to watch about 5 commercials, but they tend to be the same ones over and over. and so, while watching 'chuck' this weekend, i got to see norton antivirus commercials and that was pretty much all. in one of them they tell me to 'imagine this unicorn as you online checking accout.' then, in a big announcer voice:]

'would you allow dolph lundgren to manhandle your unicorn?'

I agree, those commercials are very strange.

Weird. Although, Dolph Lundgren WAS recently on Chuck. So at least it's semi-related...

I must be their target audience because I just laughed very hard at that! But I've never actually seen the commercial...and I'm not sure who Dolph Lundgren is..........

I looked him up and the first thing that came to mind was, "OH! THAT guy!"

It's Ivan Draco off of Rocky IV. Which you may never have seen...I'm not sure of your Rocky fanaticism. He's done other things, but that is probably what he is most famous for.

And I'm surprised you don't know him, mel...he's Swedish :-D Born: Hans Dolph Lundgren according IMDb :-D...interesting...

Actually, I think he has a fascinating bio on IMDb...

"In 1982, he received a scholarship to complete his Masters Degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of Sydney, Australia. In 1983 he was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, one of the world's top engineering schools."

"Said to have an I.Q. of 160, but according to himself this is untrue."

"Born in 1957, but claims birthdate of 1959."

Hmmm...and to think I would never have looked him up if it weren't for some random weird commercial that you mentioned...
