That Time Slash Auditioned In A Capital One Commercial

Ok, honestly this is kind of a cute commercial: Slash auditions for a guitar spot in a local garage band. It's an "easy decision" picking Slash, just like choosing Capital One Bank. Or so says the ad itself.

Some of the comments on the clip make me want to go back to bed, though. Folks asking who the guitarist is and what song he is playing. Then people being helpful and saying things like "Guns n' Roses, a very famous band." Just... wow.

It was cute like the first 5 times. Now it is on repeat all the time and I can't stand seeing it anymore.

Jeff, if you’re looking for reaffirmation we’re living in a “A Confederacy of Dunces” (appropriated from John Kennedy Toole), that Comments thread would be it!

On the other hand, the commercial is borderline brilliant!!!
