You gotta laugh at the name of Stanley's new tool: FUBAR

On Discovery Channel last night I saw a program about tools and s commercial or two. Marketing genius, I guess. Anyway, the official name of the thing is "Functional Utility Bar." The show host deferred to "Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition." Lame.

If you were doing the ad, what would you say? (nasty looking tool.)

That was hilarious! I like it when advertising has some wit and humour behind it.

And yes, I want one!

I like it. It does exactly what its name says. I FUBARed it!

I suspect they are keeping track of how many time you sick mofos clicked on the bunny. I was wanting a kitten button.
