most of the other commercials im finding say no tears or similar with the "teers" pronunciation. and this is anecdotal but i distinctly remember seeing commercials as a kid that would have the fish eye on the bottle blink cartoon tears away
@YlGACLAN they actually did! you can find several examples on youtube (i justvseaeched loreal kids commercial) of loreal kids commercials from the 90s where they say "tears" as in the tears you cry. this one from '99 even shows a kid wiping suds from his eyes and smiling (in next reply)
Integral to being a Homestuck fan in 2026 is believing that nearly every person who has worked with Hussie eventually gets sick of him and can't find nice things to say about him publically for NO REASON and Hussie is ALWAYS INNOCENT and public retractions of jokes ARE NORMAL
