I don't consider myself to be a sap by any means, but there are some heartfelt commercials out there that bring me to tears every time. Former roommates (i.e. Havala, Megatron, etc.) have witnessed the single tear falling down my cheek during a meaningful 60 second advertisement... and have lived to tell the tale and ridicule me in front of others.
One of the biggest tear-jerkers for me is Liberty Mutual. When people are helping the other people and it just turns into a circle of happiness and love... guah, gives me the chill bumps every time.
However, nothing comes close to topping the following Cheerios commercial. I think I may have continued to cry for at least two commercials afterwards. I've only seen it on TV twice, but I was able to dig it up on youtube for your viewing pleasure. Grab a Kleenex and enjoy.
Now, if that didn't elicit some deep emotion, you are a (excuse me Paula Abdul) cold-hearted snake. When I watched it before posting this blog, I teared up before it even started.
Again, I don't cry in typical everyday situations... and I'm not sure why I get so emotionally attached to commercials that are ultimately trying to sell me something.
As an end note, I have never purchased or sought information from Liberty Mutual, and I still by the cheap off-brand Cheerios.

Hi,
I found you via Stumbleupon (thekingpin68), which someone just asked me to join. There is as small group of 'local' people for which photos are provided. How have you found the program?
In regard to the commercial, it is a nice one. I was adopted, but at 10 days old. Cheers.
Russ:)
