What is happening in this Japanese iPhone commercial?

I have no words. Why is the dog sitting on the iPhone? Is he using the vibration function as a pleasurement device? Why is the dog talking? Does anyone speak Japanese? I knew I should have tried harder in school. My mom always told me that I wasn’t the quickest gazelle in the lion hunt. This post is getting very degrading, very quickly. I’m going to go think about voting for Obama tomorrow while dreaming about how Palin could have been America’s first VPILF.

This post made just about as much sense as the people who read this blog: None. I’ll try better next time, promise kids.

  1. Okay, here’s the rough rundown – the young couple come home and greet their father, who is apparently a dog (wait for it). The daughter comments that her father is in an unnatural position (which we the audience know is because he was just trying to hide that he was using an iPhone. The daughter says, “Oh! An iPhone! Let me see it!” and then comments that her father has been reading manga (Japanese comics) on it. She asks him since when he bought it, and he says, “What does it matter, I wanted it.” Then the dog’s wife calls, and she asks if he’s been hiding something from her. He denies it, but she claims she knows that he has through women’s intuition.

    I think it’s a play on teaching old dog’s new tricks – the father is embarrassed and secretive, but obviously has learned to embrace the new iPhone.
