Subject: Is Mrs Olsen hard to understand?
Suzy's husband Frank just can't stop bitching about how awful her coffee is. Suzy rushes over to Mrs Olsen's place, Mrs Olsen (who has a swedish accent which I never noticed) says Folgers ("Folgers?") which she says is mountain grown ("Mountain Grown?"). Soon, of course, all of suzy's marital problems have dissapated! Ah, ain't married life wonderful?

Subject: "How can such a pretty wife...
make such bad coffee?" One's immediate answer can't help being, "Good question, now I want a divorce." It's difficult, though, to gauge the level of irony here. Is the wife really that worried about what her husband thinks of her coffee? Is pleasing him always really key to a good marriage? The reactions, though, seem so over-the-top, the dialog so stereotyped, that it's tempting to imagine that there's some satire going on here. The beginning of irony in advertising?
