    Exclamation Vern Fonk

    Oh. My. God...

    Vern Fonk Insurance is an insurance company based in the Seattle area, and they've been doing their own ads for awhile. Some are okay (the Napoleon Dynamite ones), some are pretty damned funny (like the guy who shaved "VF" like the Van Halen logo into his back hair)...but these take the cake!

    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ItWpoUMbqJE&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ItWpoUMbqJE&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ym7h-pPB2is&rel=1&border=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ym7h-pPB2is&rel=1&border=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

    I can't stop laughing...

    Edit - I can't get the embeds to work, so here is the first link, and here is the second. I tried the [ youtube ] [ /youtube ] bidness, but all it gave me was blank white boxes.

    That's amazing. I wonder if they'll insure out-of-staters?

    I had Vern Fonk insurance....after a DUI

    they specialize in SR-22.

    That dude works in the Everett branch, but I had seen him working in the Kirkland branch too. (sub) Normal insurance agent.

    Pure coolness I wish we had a company like that in PA.
    You're gonna stand there, owning a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no whistling bungholes, no spleen spliters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker donts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?

    I was insured with them a number of years ago after getting a few too many speeding tix. They were always cool and the service was great. I'm pretty sure the guy in the ads was my agent at the time.

    Shipoopi !!!!

    I always honk when I drive by Vern Fonk. Very bummed when they shut down the Stone Way branch. That was my favorite honking spot.

    When these commercials come on it's usually around 2am and that means if I'm watching I'm drunk and easily amused. When I first heard that guy say shipoopi I almost pissed myself.

    I used to always honk at the Kirkland branch when I ate at The Goose and they would look out the windows at me like they were completely oblivious to the ads

    Chicken or the Egg?

    I don't know who copied off of who, but I think this one is funnier! For some reason, embedding has been disabled for this one.

    I wonder if they'll insure Utards.
