"André Duracell plays Space Harrier and Turrican."

dont remember.... energizer or duracell

Just tried it with a spent energizer and a spent duracell, and the duracell was more stable even though they were both spent.

Tried it with sunbeam AAA's, one spent, one fully charged, no difference.

Just tested on 6 AA batteries, 3 good 3 bad. Several tests (including one round of single blind). Bullshit anecdotally confirmed.

Having said that, the 3 good batteries were Duracell, and they seemed to fall over more often. It looks like they've got a slightly more rounded base, but only very slightly (if at all). Anyone feeling cynical?

WOW, looks more like a subliminal battery ad for Energizer hoping to go viral.

What I got out of this was Duracell=Bad, Energizer=Good.

Here's a commercial containing the Duracell bunny:

Apparently, there are two popular toy bunnies used to advertise different brands of batteries.

The Energizer bunny appears to be a response to the Duracell bunny (the commercial above):

Who gets laid the chicken or the egg?
How about the MC that has just been led
To a renegade teacher preacher then he got stomped
Cause I'm a feature straight from the Bronx
Productions better known as Boogie Down
If I was a king right now I'd get crowned
The Nice is a teacher not a prince or a rap lord
I even write my rhymes on a blackboard
To get specific, and probably make you understand
What makes the 808 plan
It's simple, I'm a round it off like this
That's how many stupid MC's I've dissed
But if the commence to try me I won't buy it
I'll look them up and down and I'll say "Don't even try it"
Cause I can go on and on without breathing
The TR, another form of BDP-eating
MC's like Chunky, moving real bluntly
Shaking and baking MC's like a junky
Fiending, hitting MC's like they was cocaine
Calling them John Doe, meaning they have no name
I'll spin you like a quarter, drink you like water
Hit below the belt with things you never thought of
I lay down the law that I am a slaughter
I roll like a tital wave, so you oughta
Float like a sailboat, move like a speedboat
In water, now watch you soak
Into a rhyme of mine until you hit the bottom
It's heavy like an anchor, it's no problem
For me to just bake you, eat you like a cookie
I am a profressional, boy, you're just a rookie
I'm here to sing a song, but some are not able
Compared to me you're just crumbs on the table

In my prime, more vocal than I've ever been
I'm not an amateur, sort of like a veteran
Split from the bums, arriving from a long trip
Now I'm back to just cold rip
MC's like confetti, eat 'em like spaghetti
I chill for a year and yet I'm still ready
To house MC's, sink 'em like a boat will
I roll heavy, thick like oatmeal
So now you know the 808 is showing
I do damage in just one moment
Here's a little message to those who want to hang out
Just remember that I give pain out
The TR-808 relates to a terrorizer
Never hiding, clever always memorizing
Poetry, history, math, or even paragraphs
I'm not into b-boying, just hoeing
Showing, blowing MC's like the wind does
I might lay you, sort of like a hen does
Cause your rhymes are weak and unstable
Compared to me you're just crumbs on the table

You must think, before you even get soup
I'll put you on the corner and sell you like a prostitute
Like a street whore, make you want more and more
Move you to the side, up and down like a seesaw
Pulling out a gun is uncalled for
But I'm with it, so go for yours
You may even try to diss, but I call it flattery
I pack more volts than a Duracell battery
Charging MC's, smooth like the breeze
Scott made me funky, yo, that was one theme
Or topic, showing I be rocking
Every little city I play I leave a heat wave
Burning up the industry, never try to get with me
I'm the type of person that never needs rehearsing
Just a little sex, a six pack of Beck's
And my room to move about, and a Guiness Stout
To make me feel able, chilling, and stable
Sometimes I'm on the mic, sometimes I'm on the turntable
I'm superb, sort of like herb
A man of my word and I've never been served

Sadly, being from Australia, and these being from the 80s during the time when US commercials weren't allowed on our tv (which was a great thing btw), I don't know any of these, but these are gold:

* Grape Nuts : You know when you've got it good... grape nuts? Dear god, who thought that was a good name?

* Ahh you Americans, it continues to amuse me that you call a main meal an entre... you must get awfully confused when dining overseas. "Why are all the entres so cheap here?" "And what are all these other 'mains' that are more expensive?"

* Mmmm, why can't the fashion of t-shirt, shirt, jacket and jumper casually thrown across the shoulders not come back into style, it's both stylish and practical... ooh, look, it's Amanda Pays... nice

* Just because I like pointing these things out, you see the slogan of Duracell? "No Battery Lasts Longer"? What does that actually say? It actually says "Our Battery lasts the SAME as other batteries" It doesn't say it lasts the longest, it says no other one lasts any longer than them, but you can be sure there are plenty that last just as long for less money... the "No X does Y any longer/faster/cheaper/etc" line is used ALL over the place.. a perfect example is in Panadol, It's just regular paracetamol, ANY brand paracetamol is EXACTLY the same (500mg per tablet/capsule, whatever), but they use the 'Nothing works faster or is more effective' tagline... which is to say it's EXACTLY the same as every other one out there.

* Hillshire Farm: Oh come on, that's got to be a gay ad surely He wouldn't change a thing...

* Frozen concentrate orange juice tastes fresh? *shudder* (And gee, it meets standards even higher than the Federal government... Wow, you mean you actually adhere to the law that you're bound to... congrats!)
