Again with the annoying commercials!

Well, he’s Argentinian, so he uses Spanish pronunciation. “Lio” sounds like English “Leo”.

Hells yeah that’s misleading AF. It actually led to a minor argument between me and Mrs. solost:


Mrs. solost So, I saw a commercial for a phone 10G network. So we’re up to 10G tech already?

Me: Uhhh no, as far as I know the cell networks are only up to 5G as of now.

Mrs. solost: But I saw a commercial for 10G service! Are you saying I don’t know what I saw?

Me: Nooo…I’m saying I don’t know what you saw, but phone networks are only up to 5G.

(Comcast / XFinity “10G” commercial comes on while we’re both watching TV)

Mrs. solost: See-- I told you, I was right!!

Me: (shakes head in frustration; not at Mrs. solost, but at the annoyingly misleading Comcast commercial)

The Irony of Dish’s ‘Reliability Guarantee’? When you get a weather-related loss of signal, the screen displays a message SPECIFICALLY TELLING YOU NOT TO CONTACT CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!

Jeep is again showing people driving thru delicate riparian habitats.

It gets better. There’s a new Jardiance commercial.

Have I ever mentioned that I despise prescription drug advertising?

The thing that really annoys me about Jardiance commercials is that ther music is really catchy and tends to make itself into an earworm.

I’m sorry but that looks like “levate you”; for “elevate you”, you should have called it “L-evate You”.

Stupid cheesy YouTube ads for milk! :roll_eyes: I won’t purposely go searching for them to link them.

The apostrophe is in the wrong place! It should be 'Levate you or 'L-evate you or even better just Elevate you - it would still be stupid as shit, though.

This one’s pissing me off right now. WTF is “ruffage”? The internet claims it’s an archaic spelling of roughage, but why would Whole Foods be using it? I think it’s just illiteracy, or maybe they think their audience is illiterate.

Oh god, “ruffage”. Like 13 is a ruffage.

Aldi bugs me with their “It’s a forever sale!” and “It’s not a sale. I need you to know that.”

Why? Why MUST she know it’s not a sale? A “forever sale” means the prices will be low forever, which is the point. She’ll be shopping there for the low prices.

And apparently Aldi customers are too stupid to understand “It’s not a sale.”

:face_with_symbols_over_mouth: Glade and their Christmas commercial. It’s not even spooky season yet, people.

I saw a Ford F-150 commercial during football today, where Ford boasts that they’re “all in on America” because the F-150 is “100% assembled in America.” I’d be curious to find out where all the parts are made, because to me that’s more important than where the damn thing is put together.

I’m annoyed by the Uber One commercial where Montell Jordan reworks his “This Is How We Do It” song. Because I keep catching myself singing under my breath…

:notes: Uber One can saaave yooou… :notes:

:notes: Save on rides to the west side :notes:

I like that Uber One commercial!

(Can I bitch about Jardiance again? That is one icky earworm.)

I see now that “young homeowners becoming their parents” commercials are now claiming that as soon as you buy a home you completely forget how social media and other computer-related activities work.

I guess they don’t make sense anymore, but I still like them.

Yeah, they aren’t young homeowners becoming their parents, they are young idiots becoming homeowners.

I was watching TV and a commercial for the new Outback off road came on. The drove on dirt road to water features, got out and admired them.

Then a jeep ad- they drove thru and destroyed delicate riparian ecologies.

I guess Subaru for the win, and it’s making me think Jeep owners are assholes.

You’re not wrong.
