It is to this day one of the more hilariously absurd things I've ever seen. I think it was for Underalls? Which are maybe pantyhose? I don't even know.

What's the big deal about panty lines anyway? So someone knows you're wearing underwear. So what?

Everyone in 4th Grade talking about the extended Pepsi commercial featuring the debut of the “Like a Prayer” video the next morning

Being convinced I was just one jar of Noxema away from great beauty

Ah, yes. Like a Prayer. Madonna's song about giving a BJ.

I grew up in Bucks County, PA where we got local stations from both NYC and Philly, and the local commercials tend to stand out in my memory more than the rest.

Crazy Eddie's, Puppy City, Krass Brothers (store of the stars!), Brigantine Castle, Action Park (my parents caved and took us there), Beefsteak Charlie's restaurant (which we also begged to go to and got our way)

And not local, but I remember this commercial vividly. Looking at it now, all I can wonder is how many black eyes and knocked out teeth were left in this thing's wake:

“You’ve waited for a jean that fits
And now you've got a jean called Chic
In colors and in checks or stripes
In 27 sizes, each proportioned right
It’s Chic, (chic, chic) the world’s best fit
Chic, chic
The world’s best fit
Short and tall, big and small, one and all for Chic
The world’s best fit”

Way way back when I was a toddler in the 70s there was a Dorito commercial where a guy in a white chefs outfit (think) bit into one and said cheeese.
