Clipo Causes Cognitive Itch

This Playskool commercial (requires flash 10) for Clipo, Clipo, Clipo...
Clipo, Clipo, Clipo...
Clipo, Cli...DAMN you Playskool!!!

Sorry. Anyway, that commercial for the toy that will not be named, will not get out of my head. It is cleverly designed to create a cognitive itch, and the only way to relieve it is to metaphorically scratch that itch by singing the song over and over again. And this obviously creates a vicious loop which I suppose is designed do get you to purchase said toy that will not be named.

Hey!!! Playskool. Yeah you. I will not succumb to your evil marketing. I will not buy my kids Clipo, Clipo, Clipo...Clipo, Clipo, Clipo....AHHHH!

I've got a headache. I'll just reach for my Head on, Apply directly to the forehead...
Head on, Apply directly to the forehead...
Head on, Apply directly to the forehead...
Head on, Apply directly to the forehead... AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

That is absolutely hysterical.

I think I've successfully replaced Clipo. I started with Celine Dion and played My Heart Will Go on For like 10 min. Now I'm onto Grandmaster Flash's White Lines...

no that didn't work...now I have visions of Celine Dion dancing and applying head on to her forehead while Grandmaster Flash sings White Lines. And instead of shouting Freeze, Rock, or Blow, He says Clipo!
