Only in large groups. If you’re by yourself on the savannah with a hungry lion, you’re dinner.

I know “organic” isn’t the best term, but it does have a specific legal definition when used on food labels. Link
Plus, I think organic food generally tastes better.
Woo hoo. A thread where I can finally get this off my chest.
This is another Mickey D’s commercial with “Helmet head” checking out the cute chick in what I guess is a bus terminal. She, of course, completely ignores him.
What is this commercial trying to say? Complete losers order from the dollar menu at McDonalds? (While that’s true, I don’t think it will sell more food)
There’s one that I keep seeing for a slightly fancified oven mitt called the “Ove Glove” that seems to be kind of rubberized like those silicon spatulas and so forth. Fine, that’s all well and good, but they advertise it by having someone reach into an oven to take out a casserole with one of those old fashioned oven mitts, you know, the ones that everyone has, and INSTANTLY having to drop the pan and shake her hands in pain.
Jesus, heat doesn’t get through a sweatshirt sleeve that fast; they must have been cooking that thing at a thousand degrees.
El Escorpio, I’ve had a few oven mitts that either were so worn out or so cheap that they didn’t adequately do their job. Not good when one is broiling in a cast iron skillet. We do have some silicon pot-holders (got them as gifts this past holiday - people know I love kitchen gadgets) and I like them. Of course, I could just buy better oven mitts too, but then I’d be spending my own money.
Sorry. This was supposed to be a reply to Stranger.
Actually, the reason I hate this one is because they have co-opted the mindset of overeaters and people who are obsessed with their weight–the number on the scale really does dictate how you feel about yourself and life that day. I feel like they eavesdropped at an OA meeting and then used it for their ad campaign.
But not weighing yourself is legit–my nutritionist would weigh me backward so I would not be impacted by The Number.
The ad that gets me is for Oust air sanitizer. I’m all for a non-smelly house but I’m not sure spraying chemicals in a newborn’s face is the best idea. (OTOH, I remembered the name when it was time to be freshener for the office so I guess it worked. 
)
If it’s larger than me and is capable of slicing through my screen door, tearing me to bits, and picking its teeth with the splintered end of my femur, then it’s above me on the food chain. Of course, this could also apply to the Hell’s Angels, but they don’t show up in my yard when I open a bag of cat food.
Oh, and another commercial I hate is the one where the woman is trying to open a shop door with her foot so her Pwecious Widdle Dahlings won’t have to touch the door handle and get Nasty Icky germs. Christ, lady, just chuck the brats into a big hamster bubble if you’re that worried about it.
And don’t get me started on all the kitchen gadgets that are marketed towards people who have such a shocking lack of fine motor control that their loved ones really shouldn’t let them anywhere near a hot stove. (I’m looking at you, Perfect Pancake.)
In Chicago, we get these ads (mostly late-night) for technical schools that just crack me up. “Go to Blah blah Tech and you can learn computers! Then you can, like, play games and get paid for it! My job is FUN!!” I know people with Bachelor’s degrees for things like web design and computer animation who aren’t yet getting these jobs. Good luck getting your fun video game job, yeah.
Also, I don’t know if this counts, but I’m absolutely sick of seeing Anna Nicole Smith cooing “Want some mooooney? Want a caaaar? Like my boooody?” on those TrimSpa sweepstakes commercials. Ewww.
The Yoplait Whipped Yogurt ads that says it has fewer calories. That’s because although it’s packed in the same size cup as the original unwhipped 6 oz., it now weighs only 4 oz. because it’s 33 1/3 % air. For the same low price. What’s next, double-whipped 2 oz. same-sized cups?
