When I was a kid there were ads for Static Guard, which was a spray can women used to stop “static cling,” which I think was when women’s dresses stuck to their stockings/hose. I still have no idea how this stuff worked or why it was needed. This wasn’t a one-off or fad product, these commercials were on all the time for years.

Also this thing called “Wisk,” which was supposed to get rid of “ring around the collar.” I guess women don’t do their men’s laundry anymore and/or men don’t wear collared shirts anymore. This product made no sense to me either, cause who even sees the inside of your shirt collar?

Those are really nostalgic for me. I remember watching them as a kid. They would play a few seconds of each song, and I would learn and sing the "mixes" to myself. My dad thought it was hilarious.

vaginal douche commercials. they never actually named the product, either. there would be weird vague allusions to 'feeling fresh' and stock footage of women in dresses cavorting in fields followed by the summer's eve logo.
