Ubiquitous Commercial Fandom

Is it weird that my current favorite ship is "Flo, the Progressive Insurance Vendor"/"Old Spice 'I'm on a Horse' Guy"

Not weird, but kind of awesome, I'd say.

He'd have to get a pink pony for her though. But yes!

Look at my hands - Two tickets for that thing you love.
Look again - the tickets are now diamonds.

Isn't the Progressive Insurance gal our old friend, "I'm files and records. That's my job."

I'm not sure - you could be right.

Not at all, but where's the community? Because there needs to be one. (As an aside, the "I'm on a Horse" Guy played receiver at ASU and evidently got advice from Jake Plummer on how to do the role.)

I wonder what kind of advice Jake Plummer gave? Something along the lines of "try not to look like an unkempt mountain man?"

Yes, but thanks for playing.

I think I see more of those commercials than actual shows.

Yes, and no. No, because they are fictional characters with personalities and really someone should do something about commercial character fandom. But yes, it's weird, because I, personally, think they wouldn't get along at all. I think she'd kill him inside a week.

You may be right. He doesn't seem to be very interested in insurance, and that's pretty important to her.
