I buy it, with her age group. With people under the age of 25 it would be "Madonna who"??

And remember advertisers want that under 25 age group more than any other.

The Stealth Hippopotamus: I buy it, with her age group. With people under the age of 25 it would be "Madonna who"??

I don't. There are tons of women named "Lindsey" and there is nothing to suggest this baby was in any way shaped on Lohan. It's a pathetic, weak-ass case.

That said, I would still very much like to have crazy, sweaty sex with Lindsey Lohan.
 
2010-03-09 09:41:12 AM
yeah, except Oprah is recognized for her humanitarian work and business prowess, whereas Lindsey is recognized for her prolapsed vagina.

I can't believe I'm the only one who thought of Lindsay Lohan when she saw that commercial. Not that I think she has a case, but it definitely came to my mind.

And seriously? Ew. Just be sure to line her vagina with extra-strong Hefty bags first. You gotta look out for your health.

Especially a company that targets wealthy stock investors, obviously.

I did not think of Miss Lohan when I saw that commercial. I wouldn't have been able to tell you the girl baby's name if I had been waterboarded.
 
2010-03-09 09:58:53 AM
Fark off, Lohan. You have a super common name. You don't get to claim all references to that name as talking about you. Farking hell. Next we'll have celebrities named John, Matt, and Susan making similar claims.
 
2010-03-09 10:04:26 AM
add me to the list of people who thought of her during the commercial. I remember feeling sorry for her, actually.

Hey, she has only herself to blame for the bad associations we have with the name Lindsay.
 
2010-03-09 10:22:34 AM
$100M will sure buy a lot of coke

SurfaceTension: Especially a company that targets wealthy stock investors, obviously.

this is the same company that use the baby. They are looking for the 18 year old that wants to blow a couple grand to get rich quick.

Butterflew: yeah, except Oprah is recognized for her humanitarian work and business prowess, whereas Lindsey is recognized for her prolapsed vagina.

again think of the target audience. They dont care why they are famous

With her obviously amazing legal team (serious), I'd probably try to settle for a few bucks. Right or wrong, Lindsay seems to be bulletproof.

/gives her two more years on this mortal coil
 
2010-03-09 11:55:21 AM
Her mother has taught her well. She must be so proud.
 
2010-03-09 11:55:50 AM
God I hate lawyers so goddamned much.

The Stealth Hippopotamus: And remember advertisers want that under 25 age group more than any other.

Yeah, they're after that enormous, coveted "under 25 day trader" demo.

There are other Lindseys. What up with that?

Matt Lauer is suing you for your comment

You are SO SUED.

Now if they had said, "Is that coke addled skanky train wreck Lindsay there?", then she would have a point.
 
2010-03-09 01:46:04 PM
Apparently she's been sharing her coke with her lawyers. This is farking retarded.
 
2010-03-09 01:46:48 PM
kxs401: Hey, she has only herself to blame for the bad associations we have with the name Lindsay.

It is pretty funny that the ad featured an "addict" named Lindsey and she immediately thought of herself.
 
2010-03-09 01:47:14 PM
who?
 
2010-03-09 01:47:23 PM
Can't she just use something she is more known for, like "Fire Crotch"?
 
2010-03-09 01:47:31 PM
I was really offended, too.

I meant by the article. They called her an actress?
 
2010-03-09 01:47:45 PM
You know I saw that ad and never once thought the baby girl was supposed to be or in any way connected to Lindsey Lohan. Now that she has pointed it out, yeah that is kind of funny. Pathetic and sad that she would sue over it, but funny.
 
2010-03-09 01:48:00 PM
What, was the baby in the commercial named Firecrotch?
 
2010-03-09 01:48:14 PM
"Everybody's talking about it and saying it's Lindsay Lohan."


If by "everybody" you mean you, her, and two of her friends, then maybe.

I noticed her lawyer had to use Lindsay's last name so we'd know who the fark she was talking about...
 
2010-03-09 01:48:24 PM
"the actress has the same single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna."

Or Charo.
 
2010-03-09 01:48:41 PM
So... addicted, attention wh0ring, baby = Lindsay Lohan.

Sounds about right.
 
2010-03-09 01:48:49 PM
I bet she wants to have a "$100 million dollar crack party!"

i was gonna say exactly this.

Milkawhat?
 
2010-03-09 01:49:15 PM
This may be the first time, a person had come foward and literally said, "Im that whore, pay me my money". Groundbreaking really...
 
2010-03-09 01:49:19 PM

2010-03-09 01:50:32 PM
You mean single-name recognition as a drugged up skank?
 
2010-03-09 01:50:36 PM
She forgot the Bionic Woman.

2010-03-09 01:51:10 PM
Eh, I'll do her anyway.
 
2010-03-09 01:51:24 PM
Lindsey Lohan never even crossed my mind whenever I saw that commercial so I'd have to say she's probably wrong to think that
she has that kind of 1 word name recognition.
 
2010-03-09 01:51:25 PM
Uh-huh. So when does Madonna get to sue the Catholic Church? Because that would be awesome.
 
2010-03-09 01:51:36 PM
The first thing I thought of was the commercial where the Baby called the golfer a Shankopotamus and I thought Lindsay Lohan Skankopotamus!

Then I thought Milkoholic and thought how could she be a milkoholic? There is no way on god green earth that Lindsey could suck a drop of mil out of Samatha Ronson teat. never gonna happen.

|I hope this goes to court -- the entertainment value would be priceless.
 
2010-03-09 01:51:39 PM
I seriously love that ad, and watched and re-watched it.

Add me to the the group of people that did NOT think of Lindsay Lohan, not once.

/milka-what??
 
2010-03-09 01:51:40 PM
If your name and addiction appear in a commercial, movie, television series, novel, etc., and the first thought is you, you should probably reconsider the direction of your life.
 
2010-03-09 01:51:49 PM
I so wanna be at the party she throws if she wins this lawsuit.

/there will be coke
 
2010-03-09 01:51:52 PM
I see it going one of two ways:

I meet her through some odd set of circumstances, and she's actually a cool person and fun to be around...

or

She scares me with the zombie-like dullness in her drug-addled eyes.



Either one is just as likely, really.
 
2010-03-09 01:52:04 PM
"They used the name Lindsay," Ovadia said. "They're using her name as a parody of her life. Why didn't they use the name Susan?

Because Susan Sarandon would sue them, and she can afford better lawyers.

Really, what the fark kind of question is this?
 
2010-03-09 01:52:31 PM
I couldn't be an attorney. I would feel so used and dirty.
 
2010-03-09 01:52:54 PM
Skanky ho says what?
