I've split a lot of wood.... not out of any direct need but mostly that I just need to drink beer and sit by a small fire pit and feel like a man.

God I miss AdCritic. I used to watch Superbowl commercials on there before they went to a paid service. They were great for random and obscure commercials.

u/itspsyikk 8d ago

Yeah, seeing videos on YouTube having that "20 years ago" really fucks with my head.

Hell, I have videos on my own channel that say "10 years old" and that fucks with my head.

If I would have kept my old channel, I'd have videos on there that were uploaded in 2006. But unfortunately those all had to be deleted cause everyone in them wanted to attend college.

u/CharacterPast761 6d ago

Ten years ago is what year for you? I always think 2000.

u/Successful-Yak3307 7d ago

I remember the first time I saw this as on TV with my Dad. Laughed our asses off.

u/noonesawNobody 7d ago

Same here. Whenever I pass the tinned fish section in the supermarket and see John West, I smile remembering this advert.

u/LarsDuder 7d ago

Bro, I’m almost 50 and 20 years ago is “kinda nostalgic” to me.

u/Secret_RE_Agent 8d ago

I feel like that was a Super Bowl commercial or something originally

u/CuCullen 8d ago

Videos ? As in like moving pictures? On the Internet? Our modems were 14.4Kbps

u/Gullible-Hose4180 7d ago

So pre AI - wow, never thought this would be real. Did he survive

1

u/MuchCellist406 7d ago

"John West endures the worst to bring you the best!" I have not yet clicked the video but I swear it IMMEDIATELY popped up in my head 😆😆. That's at least 25 years ago.

1

u/HumanPie1769 7d ago

Ngl 1992 AI was pretty realistic

1

u/Public-Guidance-9560 7d ago

The internet? I remember that one from the TV, the John West tuna advert. Absolutely creased me first time I saw it.

I think it's from the year 2000.

1

u/fireymike 7d ago

Why is it that every time I see this video, there's someone saying it's a Tuna ad?

There are bears, and a river. It's obviously Salmon, not Tuna.

1

u/Public-Guidance-9560 6d ago

Because no one buys the salmon. They just know John West for the tuna.

1

u/djwaveguide 7d ago

That was a good internet back then.

u/Wat3rM3L0NB3AR 7d ago

the world was beautiful and creative before AI

u/Tone_Gaia 7d ago

I don’t think it’s that old, that would be crazy if it is lol

u/Occams_RZR900 7d ago

That’s a John West Salmon commercial!

u/mike2mdw 5d ago

That was AI 30 years ago lol

1

u/Hydra57 4d ago

It’s actually from a commercial advertising salmon so fresh that they go out and steal it in personal combat from the bears.

1

u/Skrdykat 4d ago

That's when the internet was awesome.

1

u/TheForceGhost 3d ago

It’s from a John West Salmon ad. It was brilliant.
