Wilford Brimley was a man’s man in the 80’s and 90’s when he was doing the Quaker Oats commercials. “It’s the right thing to do and the right way to do it.” He doesn’t even let you choose. He’s telling you, you eat my Oatmeal, or else.

Beetus
beetus…beetus…diabeetus.
If you don’t eat the Quaker Oats, you gets the DIA-BEET-US.
And then you have to get your sh*t from Libery Medical…
This explains the diabeetus. This and cocoon.
…no it dosent.
-ZTM
And I was thinking Liberty Medical and Diu-beetus, too.!
—————————-
He was also on a show called Our House in the 80’s with Shannen Dougherty.
A no-nonsense, gruff old man telling us it’s the right thing to do.
What’s the right thing he wants us to do?
Stay faithful to our spouse in tough times?
Go to the doctor even though you fear the worst?
Stand up to a bully even if you’re scared of being hurt?
No, it’s to buy a gawddam breakfast food.
These commercials set back the effectiveness of serious, dour old men by 50 years. Now if I yell at kids to get off of my lawn, they think I’m just an old stereotype. Thanks for nothing, Mr. Brimley
Only thing better than bubble tape is Big League Chew!
Wrong post, stupid.
He’s like an older Billy Mays!
wasn’t this commercial the inspiration for the movie Cocoon?
Wilford *always* = WIN lmao
Wilford is frigging AWESOME!
Loved him in the battle for Endor and the way he sold those deer guts in “The Thing”!!!
“I’ll KILL YOU!”
Errrr……. The Battle of Endor??? The Star Wars Battle of Endor or some other Battle of Endor I haven’t heard about yet. What the hell was Wilford Brimley doing in Star Wars?? Can’t remember him in that. Unless he was Chewie’s stunt double
“I’m gonna tell you about something they can’t measure with numbers, ok? I just plain feel better every day; as a matter of fact, most of the time I feel terrific”
I use that exact same line of reasoning whenever I’m buying a ball of coke
