Discount Double Check

I'm sure you've seen the commercials with Aaron Rodgers doing the "discount double check." 

I have to admit, I love those commercials.  Especially the fans at the end who usually have a cheesehead hat on and yell, "Hey Rodgers, Discount Double Check!" while doing the now infamous action of moving the hands back and forth across the waistline. 

Well now that I have hit midlife and have some extra stuff around the waist that never used to be there (even in my heaviest days), I have come to calling that my "discount double check." 

Friends who are the same age have the same issue and we all wonder where it came from.

And we agree it is a pretty cruel thing.

The concensus is we went to bed, woke up, and there it was:

Discount Double Check.

We recently had pictures taken for our Christmas cards and I told Angie not to get any pictures of my "discount double check."  She immediately knew what I meant, although I find myself doing the hand motions now. 


Everyone who knows me knows what I'm talking about when I refer to it as that. 

The commercials make their discount double check sound pretty awesome.

My kind,  not so much. 

(Sigh)
