I see what you are saying here, and my answer is yes, it is cool. I support funny commercials for what they are: entertainment for me. While this commercial is great, its still not going to make me buy or drink Bud Light, ever. In this sense, this commercial is FREE entertainment for me, because Bug Light will never see a dime from me in return. So I say, thanks for the free laugh, Bud Light. Also, it is a refreshing change from the normal beer commercial, which you'll recall used to be awful. (think: The Chapelle's Show sketch - Dude's Night Out!) Maybe Bud Light has figured out my demographic and targeted it sucessfully, but ultimately, the only thing that moves me to buy a certain beer over another is the actual quality of the product itself. And everyone knows that the only thing Bud Light has to offer in the way of quality is funny commercials like this one.

Hmmmmmmm...is it cool when something lame has a funny commercial? The commerical is cool, but I'm not sure about the overall ontological experience.
