HIALEAH, FL—Despite ready access to an almost inexhaustible archive of exceptional movies, television shows, and print literature, local dad Brett Colston declared Friday that his favorite piece of media was a commercial from 2005. “I’m not sure if it was a Super Bowl ad originally, but you guys have to see it if I can dig it up,” said Colston, bypassing millennia of collective human creativity to enter the keywords “talking horse,” “commercial,” and “Jessica Alba” into a YouTube search bar as his family indifferently looked on. “Where the hell is it? I can’t believe it’s not coming up immediately. Okay, I think the ad was maybe for a truck or SUV or something. You guys really have no idea what I’m talking about? Man, it’s so hilarious. You’ll know it instantly when I find it, trust me.” At press time, Colston, who could have been watching cinematic masterpiece The Godfather, was reportedly still searching for his commercial by working his way through a three-hour compilation of the best ads of the 2000s.
