“The hot dog smells from the hot dog guy!” is something I’ve been repeated to myself this afternoon. It’s stuck in my head and although I looked up Progressive allergy commercial, the commercial is still a memorable one from not Progressive, but GEICO.
The stuffed up woman is actress and comedian Jenna Jimenez. In her own words, she is “obsessed with knitting, rollerblading, and picking things up with her monkey-like toes.” I didn’t see any toe picks* on her Instagram but there are other photos you’ll probably enjoy.
The hot dog smells from the hot dog guy. Who else can immediately smell the ketchup and mustard when she says this line? The bun. The hot dog. Such a wonderful aroma. The only thing that doesn’t quite make sense (but it’s necessary for the commercial, I guess) is that why would anyone who suffers from outdoor allergies (myself included) walk through such a dense garden of flowers, weeds, and foliage? It’s a death wish!
*you can’t say “toe pick” without including the reference.
