They REEEE in anger b/c "she was already thin!" (as if the only point of exercise is to get thin, vs. building muscle mass or just general fitness, but I digress), but I fucking guarantee you if they did the exact same commercial except w/ a woman 50 lbs heavier who has lost weight by the end of the ad, the same exact people would be screeching in anger even louder about the company "body shaming" the woman.

Those bikes are stupid expensive (and apparently only that expensive b/c of the "premium pricing" effect -- used to be $1200 but people assumed they must be cheaply made; then increased the price and sold way more...people are so fucking stupid...) and I'd never buy one.
But cripes. It's just a company selling a product, making a commercial showing someone buying one as a gift for his wife, to promote it around the holidays. Get over it! Fucking twitter is cancer...


Yeah i heard about this on the radio and even the woman on the radio talk show was pretty much saying what you said. And added too that this fictitious woman may have asked for it for christmas. And the dude on the show said yeah his wife is thin and had asked for one for christmas so thats a possibility
