Local commercials are a special kind of weird; there’s an awkwardness that seems calculated, a wooden delivery that barely registers as human, and a general WTF-ness that is both alarming and amusing.
This is one of those commercials
Perhaps the best part of this spot is how irked our host, Chuck Testa, looks in every shot. Either someone dragged him into doing the ad, or this is his permanent, get-off-my-lawn demeanor.
The pair of seemingly normal dudes at the end are another treasure, as they appear to have just stopped in for a quick Pabst and now have to bear witness to this nightmare.
Memes are popping up all over the web, though we’ll see how far the joke can go.
Bonus: Adult Swim heroes Tim and Eric have probably watched their fair share of local commercials because they have it down to a science.
