Logic: Missing in Action

We recently got a television program system thingy (technical term) that allows the user to pause and review what is shown on the screen.
I have enjoyed using this to point out the ambient stupidity exhibited daily.
We all have our fun, I suppose.

I find the ability corporations have to put onto television whatever the hell they want to sell their product somewhat distressing. Sometimes I think it is this kind of thing that leads to the mental wanting of our society as a whole, or maybe it just points it out.

I have but one example in this case. Enjoy.



I apologize for the lack of adequate sound, but the basic plot line of this commercial is the honey bees have honey on their boat to make honey nut cheerios with. The wasps that look like pirates are going to steal the honey. The bees go into an elaborate mini-battle to rescue the honey. The end.

I may be missing something completely, but I really hope that you noticed the fact that they are sailing on a fucking OCEAN OF HONEY.
They are fighting over a couple barrels of honey.
The whole fucking ocean = honey.
I don't think I can voice the asininity of this whole concept.

Anyone else agree? I could be completely wrong here, but I'm fairly to moderately sure that kids should be exposed to things with a little more logic i.e. fire fighters extinguishing a fire with gasoline.
