"Coffee Jerks": husbands in the 1950's sure were jerks

(CBS) - Some people can be jerks before they get their first cup of coffee. Some people are even bigger jerks after having coffee, like the dudes in this clip show of various 1950's coffee commercials called "Coffee Jerks." Yes, the 1950's, that wonderful decade when men wore ties every second of the day and berated their wives for sub-par coffee. "How can such a pretty wife make such bad coffee?" Indeed.

Credit goes to Shaun Clayton, who writes in the video description: "I took a series of 1950's and 60's-era coffee commercials from the Prelinger Archives and edited them down to just the moments when the guys were the biggest jerks to their wives about coffee."
