Get over yourself UPS dude


Who is this UPS whiteboard dude, and why is this an actual national ad campaign? 

My theory is that the entire concept is a subtle ripoff of John Robbins and his utterly fantastic 70's PBS kids series "Cover to Cover."  Remember the show where the dark-haired guy would read you the story while drawing pictures of it?  Yeah.  It was cool.  The UPS guy decidedly is not.

So... unless you plan to draw something more valuable on your whiteboard, can narrate an interesting children's book instead of a clumsy ad pitch, and get a big boy haircut while you're at it: UPS dude, you can just join Lindsay Lohan in getting over yourself.
