"New York City?"
Anyone remember those commercials from the 80's? Today they are coming to mind

I loved old commercials as a kid. They really accomplished their purpose with me in that I easily memorized and would recite them.

"Uh uh uh, a lady doesn't use a messy roll on. A lady doesn't use a scattering spray."
"What choice to I have?"
"You need Lady's Choice"

Or, of course:

Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame bun.

Or: The night time sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever so you can rest medicine.

I liked commercials a lot as a kid.

I'd walk a mile for a Camel.

Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?

It's what's up front that counts.

A silly millimeter longer.

Some kids go "whoop!" when they sit and spin.
Some kids go "Honk! Honk!" when they sit and spin.
Sit and spin - whoop!
Sit and spin - honk honk!
Kids just love to Sit and Spin.

Or something like that. My memory fails me.

"Plop, plop, fizz, fizz. Oh, what a relief it is!"

"At the sign of the cat!"

"Meow, meow, meow, meow..."

"Cats would buy Whiskas." (I first saw the commercial for this brand of cat food in Germany).
