Rhetorical Rhett and Link

So, in college, I have to write a paper. About a commercial. Fellow mythical beasts, what comes to your mind when someone awesome commercials are discussed? Rhett and Link's crazy local commercials, of course! Naturally, that was my conclusion as well. My instructor wasn't to keen on my choice of The Red House commercial, but I ignored her warnings and wrote my paper.

The assignment was to write a rhetorical analysis of the commercial, which is a fancy way of saying I had to dissect the meaning out of every little scene. It's not DONE done yet, but it soon will be. Tell me, mythical beasts, which commercial would you analyze the tar out of? And why?

I had a fellow student peer-review my paper, and they thought the commercial sounded really weird.

Hoho RHETTorical analysis. That should be the title of the essay.
