Did you see that cute commercial? Doesn't it fill you with fuzzy feelings and happiness?
Well that's clearly because you are a sin filled pagan destined to end up in the fiery pits of hell.
Don't believe me? See for yourself:
William Tapley, the evangelist who gained fame when he said public works of art in the Denver airport included hidden phallic symbols, now sees evil in a puppy that appeared in a Super Bowl commercial.
In a video posted to YouTube on Friday Tapley says the Budweiser commercial in which a Labrador retriever puppy is born among Clydesdale horses and keeps running away from adoptive human parents to rejoin them is evidence of the nearing of the end times.
“It is talking about the arrival of the Antichrist,” Tapley said in his video.
In the commercial called "Puppy Love," which won USA Today’s Super Bowl ad contest, the puppy is born at a ranch identified as “Warm Springs.”
“That is code for 'lake of fire,'” Tapley said. “(That’s) where our puppy dog comes from. … But this puppy dog is more than a cute, warm, fuzzy animal. He is a symbol of the Antichrist.”
Tapley sees symbolism throughout the commercial, saying that four of the Budweiser Clydesdale horses represent the “beasts of the apocalypse” and a fifth is a false prophet.
“Will the end times signs and wonders in this commercial never cease?” he asks.
Dammit! And here I thought I was watching an innocent beer commercial about a giant Clydesdale's unnatural and inappropriate relationship with a clearly underage puppy.
Nice try Budweiser, but this Tapley guy is not so easy to fool!
Let me guess, he wants people to send in a "love gift" to ward off the evil puppy? What a con they got going!

Just think. Pre-internet, we wouldn't even know this idiot exists, let alone has thoughts like this. In other words, instead of being a far rightwing hero, he'd be hanging out on a corner with a tin cup begging for change.
ReplyDeletei've begun to realize the old axiom might be true that computers will be the demise of mankind
DeleteThis guy sounds PERFECT to be in charge of Santorum's run for the presidency!!Too bad the puppy was not "blah" Would love to hear his analysis of the Doberman/Chihuhua mix dog. That was hilarious.
DeleteThat was SO Flippin' adorable!!! How can anyone see "Evil" there?
DeleteYou don't understand. see, the horse is a pedobestial who is molesting the puppy and turning him gay, or something. Send me money!
DeleteI do believe you're on to something there...
DeleteSheesh
For crying out loud....
ReplyDeleteMy first thought as well.
DeleteSheesh
I am SO sick of this shit. I posted the link to the live stream debate in an earlier thread but couldn't watch it, and I'm a "practicing" Christian. THIS is the southern strategy that Floyd Orr warned about in "Paradigm Shift: The Palin Matrix."

I knew Bill Key personally, the guy who first stumbled across subliminal messages (Stained Class album), and he did have a point. As time went on, he seemed to be reaching further and further for connections that no other person saw. His books didn’t sell very well, and he relied on his numerous wives (one at a time until he lost count), with some hostility on their part. I sincerely think he was on to something, but maybe it wasn’t as pervasive as he believed.
ReplyDeleteTapley is simply ripping off Bill Key now that he’s dead.
Subliminal advertising, in general, is ineffective and most of the "astonishing effects" have been proven to be documented as hoaxes, including the popcorn/CocaCola flashes spliced into videos which purported to stimulate sales. The SMELL of popcorn is NOT subliminal. Same with bacon. You sense its smell so its not below the threshold of conscience.
DeleteIn visual album art or something for stoned college students to look at and say "Wow, this is really some GOOD shit, man, and hey, let's listen to The Beatles White album (or Revolver) play backwards on this turntable because vinyl LPs suck compared to these new CDs anyway, dude."
There is NO empirical evidence of the effectiveness in persuasion of selling using these stand-alone attempts at manipulation. We had an assigned reading list as an undergrad in Marketing which included "The Hidden Persuaders". It was written in the middle/late 50's. Interesting for its time, but not rocket science.
My roommate at the time who was a journalist/mass media major also had some Timothy Leary albums that were cool, but I had to chill from being a regular dope-smoker since I minored in Finance. But yeah, college was cool even before the internet.
Today, with lots of CGI in movies and all kinds of media, it's a "cool" thing for those people to insert as many signature"Easter Eggs" in their work because geeks rule. It's all cool now.
Question: Why isn't this guy finding a big pair of boobs in the clouds of a Disney movie or just looking up at the sky? I admit to being a "typical guy" although I have to appear to be "in neutral" in professional situations.
DeleteYou become what you think about. This guy's a dick, plain and simple.Not of phallic origin, but just ignorance and stupidity. Idjit.
Does this man have a Pac, or does he just beg people to donate to his cause?
DeleteMr. Tapley needs a visit from the guys with the butterfly net. I'm sure there is nice comfy padded room for him somewhere to sit in and examine the pattern on the wall.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why the musings of these nut jobs are given any publicity at all. It used to be that insane rants from these folks were kept in the confines of their own environment and were not for public consumption. However, today it seems no matter how bizarre your thoughts are, if you call yourself a Christian, they will find their way into the public forum.
DeleteDidn't we used to lock people like this up for life in mental institutions?
ReplyDeleteI think his full name was Bryan Wilson Key. We knew him as Bill.

"and a fifth is a false prophet." ✓
ReplyDeleteI think he has that one covered...
“Will the end times signs and wonders in this commercial never cease?” he asks.
ReplyDeleteWell, Tapley, the cost per second to air a commercial during the Superbowl probably tends to put a practical upper limit on the duration of the ad. Couple that with the frame rate a human eye can detect and one can calculate the number of images available to delude idiots like you. Do the math!
Exactly how many beers do I have to down so I can have visions of the canine anti-christ?
ReplyDeleteWhat if I drink some miracle water, I can purchase it from Christian Broadcasting Network, will I see the devil dog then?....
Why is there always ONE asshole claiming something's evil when there's no "there" there. Not a smidge.
ReplyDeleteNow if the lab puppy grew horns, slapped on a wig, put a strap on bra and spoke in tongues, there's no argument at all.
There are no words for this nutbag.
ReplyDeleteEgads and holy freakin' little fishes…
ReplyDeletecould someone shoot tapley an image of that giant vagina statue thingie in front of wasilla high to see if there's a deeper darker hidden meaning ?
ReplyDeletei'll wait ..
I called him for you and he says it means all the Heath/Palin women are whores.
DeleteThat statue is an ad for Jethro's business.
DeleteGood commercial for those who are interested in brand support. And for dog/animal lovers that recognize the personality of their charismatic pets as they relate to other animals. I have one small alpha and a bigger mutt who just wants everybody to get along.
ReplyDeleteJust because he has a dick means he is one.
ReplyDeleteJust because he sees dicks everywhere they aren't means he's looking for one. Or several, if he's lucky.
DeleteThe four horses of the Apocalypse plus the False Prophet.
ReplyDeleteThen what's the sixth horse? Or did the ability to count escape with his sanity?
What a sick mind this Tapley has.
ReplyDeleteBeaglemom
This guy needs some anti-psychotic medication.
ReplyDeleteKeep an eye on this Tapley guy - he is clearly insane.
ReplyDeleteFew are more dangerous than a religious maniac.
I guess we don't have to wonder about his feelings on Tarzan...
