Have you seen his ads on TV?

I thought it was funny as hell that a 30something, or at best an early 40something is shilling a web service for the "over-50 set"

It sounds like the kind of idea a bunch of youngsters came up with sitting around in a marketing meeting.

"Hey, there's an aging demographic in the United States. Let's think about how we can take advantage of that."

"How about a web service directed to the over-50 set?"

"Yeah, that's a great idea. They have lots of money too!"
