Then why do they have to stop?
Oh, so it is bad.
The Old Navy ads with #SorryNotSorry are VERY annoying.

Sorry not sorry has always been annoying, in every context.
I’m going to throw something at the television if I see that commercial with the musician Austin James. Once is okay, but I think it’s on four or five times an hour around here.
same for the Liberty Mutual throwback Christmas commercial or ANYTHING with that damn emu.
there is a cartoon commercial with alex and caleb. they talk to the large shriner’s teddy bear.
Studies show Liberty Mutual commercials are frelling stupid.
They’ve run ads where he’s driving.
They’re touting those as old, nostalgic ads.
“We all see it…we all see it…”
“BLUUUUUUE”
OK, I just saw another one and it’s time to speak up.
Why in the name of Al Michaels must every commercial that shows a family or group of friends watching a sporting event (it’s always football) on TV have to include one simpleton watching while holding an actual football?
This is something I have never seen in real life, and it makes zero sense. What do they do, toss it to each other across the living room during commercials?
It’s Maddening.
mmm
Wow, I would yell at the TV if I saw that.
Oh, and “the guys” are never not eating… often a gigantic plate of nachos piled high (sometimes made by the host’s Stepford Wife, who quickly retreats back to the kitchen).
And/or a huuuuge bowl of pretzels. Because, at any first down, the huge guy on the sofa jumps straight up, pumping his fist and yelling “YEAHHHH!” And the pretzels are very picturesque as the bowl flies into the air.
…and shit.
Hey! Litter Robot! Make me not dumb!
I’ve been seeing this commercial a lot recently, and I think the child is mourning her mother. After taking the snow globe from the sleeping kid, her father puts it down in front of a picture of the three of them. At dinner, she reluctantly puts the snow globe down at an empty (but set) place.
How turning their greenhouse into a giant snow globe is supposed to help her, I don’t know.
Oh I get the storyline of dead Mom. But why a papershredder- seriously?
I have decided Mom ran off with the Ski instructor and the Dad is an accountant at FTX who shredded all the passwords to the bitcoin wallets .
I keep imagining that shredded paper winding up in the kid’s eye.
Well, at least it wasn’t glitter, but I’m still not cleaning up that mess.
And without something on the floor to recirculate the paper, it’s “one and done” as far as paper snow goes. Which they’d have to know, since they built the set and filmed it.
Liberty Mutual’s ‘Nostalgia’.
What makes it annoying? The kid can’t say ‘mutual’. He says ‘mutural’. I wonder how many takes they did before the director said, ‘Ah, to Hell with it. Maybe it’ll be cute.’
Oh HELL yes! My husband is annoyed at the other kid who kicks his bike but doesn’t even seem to hear how this kid can’t talk right and it drives me batty! And then I try to say it wrong like the kid says it wrong but can’t, like I can’t say ‘nuclear’ wrong. Arrhgggh!!1
