Help! I'm Stuck in a Shopping Cart and I Have To Pee!!

See if you can find 5 annoying things about this ad?

1. The reference to "garbanzo beans" and "bladder" totally misses the joke.  If you're using "beans" and you're referring to the bathroom, you gotta' go with flatulence. 
2. There's no explicit mention of the drug but there's a teensy tiny Pfizer logo in the upper right hand corner.  What are you hiding Mr. Pfizer?
3. It slaps yet another label on yet another thing wrong with us that only drugs can cure: overactive bladder...when was this an issue? 
4. It's making that old-school assumption that women shop in supermarkets, not men.
5. It's in a shopping cart for Pete's sake!  Is this speaking to the groceries or the cart driver?
