I will not rest until the rest of MASHblr is as insane about the 80âs office AU ads as I am
So I wanted to compile the ads so I could just post one video and not like a whole YouTube playlist, but I quickly found out that there are SO MANY MASH IBM ads! So I decided to leave out ones that werenât office related and were more âAlan Alda puts on a bunch of different hatsâ and âJamie Farr repeatedly tries and fails to enter a buildingâ and I actually had to cut one ad of Alan and some kids in a classroom that I wanted to put in cuz I think itâs cute.
But anyway, I am always gnawing at the bars of my enclosure thinking of the universe these ads take place in. Like, who flooded the office? Did Trapper ever get to go to Hawaii? Whereâs BJ? (JK heâs at a gay picnic)
I feel like thereâs a rich vein here and us weirdos, sickos, and perverts need to buckle down and really dig into the potential for office shenanigans.
mash girlies (gender-neutral) have the most middle-aged interests of all time. like itâs not just mash. âoh hereâs my favorite amc period drama and my favorite dad rock musician and my favorite terry pratchett novelâ you are a middle school art teacher ten years away from retirement. you guys post like youâve got a baked ziti in the oven. and then we're all like 23.
