Ha!
I also inflate after eating bags of lays.
Probably not the message they want to give over.

So, eating Lays makes one an insubstantial person? I'll need to remember that the next time I've an urge to visit the notorious snack machine.
Who created that marketing plan??

I had to send that link to my brother - his fiance hates those inflatable people (commonly seen outside of cellular phone stores for some reason). When asked what she hates about them she said "They're so unpredictable and scary!" Now we call them USGs - Unpredictable Scary Guys.

I, too, find this commercial kind of creepy.

I love the commercial, but I prefer Wise's chips; more potato flavor. Better logo too.
