that explains a lot

I was at the gym this morning, and the television was playing with closed captioning on.

Apparently, some commercials are captioned and some aren't, perhaps depending on which advertisers want to pay for the service.

I noticed this during a commercial for "America's #1 weight loss supplement," during which the previous commercial's caption remained frozen at the bottom of the screen the entire time. It said: "PIZZA HUT."

I was on the Pizza Hut Weight Loss Program for four years in college. I can't say that it was particularly effective. I didn't have a control taking a placebo to compare to or anything like that, but the results weren't good.

Perhaps you have to take the delicious supplements AT the gym for them to work properly.
