BMW Lightbulb Commercial

This commercial bothers me every time I see it.

Watch it, then I will share my irritation with you:

See the lightbulb the guy is holding?  It’s one of those abominations-of-environmental-insanity-dogooderism-gone-wrong compact flourescents.  I HATE those bulbs.  The light sucks, you can’t dim them, they flicker when they come on and take a few minutes to come up to full strength.  I hate them.

So, the thing that bothers me about this commercial?  Did you see how fast and perfectly the lights in the ceiling went on?  Just like a buttload of my beloved incandescents.  They turn on all the way right away and give off REALLY pleasant light.  There is no way that’s a ceiling full of stupid CFs.

I looked at the bulbs and they seem to be the basic shape of the blasted and satanic CF bulbs, but I’m telling you, they came on too fast and not a one of them flickered.   They were NOT CF’s.

Soon the king of lighting, my beloved incandescents will be discontinued.  And those stupid idiots wasted a ton of them on that stupid green commercial.  Arrrrgh!
