I apologize if this is one of those videos that everyone has seen. I thought it was kind of funny. And DDD will be happy to see that the elders are wearing short sleeved white shirts.

Just saw this one in the menu below the sub commercial. This is exactly how things were in my mission and we didn't need any Axe.

those are so great. I have never seen them, so thanks for posting. are they real commercials?

1. Where is Mr Sub located? Narrator had a serious accent, but the commercial was in English.
2. Is that an actual ad for Axe?

I rocked short sleeves in my mission. I think it is always good to be honest about our roots.

I've never seen that Axe commercial but it looks like it cost some decent money to produce so I'd guess it's real. The guy who told me about the Mr. Sub video said it is a Canadian place but that was no Canadian accent.

Mr. Sub

Been to Toronto recently? Toronto is less than 20% ethnic Candian. Less than 60% native English speakers. More Mr. Subs than you can shake a stick at.

Canada isn't all "ehs" and "hosers" eh hoser?

I liked how in the Axe one the ending tag line "Spray more, Get more, The Axe Effect" mimicked the Church's logo, same font, small font size on top and bottom, big in the middle. I assume that was on purpose. Nice touch.

I'm one real mullah. I kept wondering where the Axe missionary's companion was.

To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
