One of the Shriner’s ad, the kid says “I was born without a lower right foot”…
What? You got an upper right foot? That might be beyond Shriner’s.
I just saw an AARP commercial. And what was it touting a discount for? An upcoming tour by the Rolling Stones. Way to make me feel old!
Depending on the definition of upper and lower. I think he meant he was born with a heel but no toes.
He has no sole?
Those are weird but well done, and they are trying to show Monopoly as not boring.
Only two ways Monopoly is not boring. Play with kids and lie and cheat. Or change the rules with unwitting adults.
Does that cover the official shorter version, in which all the properties are distributed before anyone moves off “Go”?
I saw some new prescription drug ad last night. The actual situation in the ad is pretty much standard prescription drug ad fodder, the woman in the ad living a happy, carefree life while the narrator lists all the side effects. But something about it just looked “off” to me, and then it dawned on me – the ad is all CGI animation, not real actors. But it’s that weird “uncanny valley” type CGI, where the characters look almost like real people, but they’re just wrong enough that they appear incredibly creepy.
Why would they use CGI? It’s a drug ad, not a Pixar movie. Was it cheaper than hiring real actors? Could they not get real actors during the SAG-AFTRA strike (There was still a voiceover artist doing the narration, of course; I don’t know if they were on strike as well)?
Wow, Lume deodorant has hit a new low. The lady is now telling us that old people stink, but they can’t smell themselves! So use Lume to acidify your skin. Also, people over 40 are old.
It’s a Fair Cop!
I know, I know
As I told Mrs Magill mumbly-mumbly years ago, "Welcome to your forties. If you do not already have an ailment, one will be provided for you. "
I’m well over age 40, and if advertisers hope to fish in my reservoir of self-loathing, they’ll have to bait their hooks with something more complex than adolescent insecurity.
Plus, what if I like smelling like marijuana, cigarettes and beer?
I don’t feel old until I go to stand up. 
My knees have definitely gotten worse over the last couple of years…I can still curl up in a chair, but I have to remember to stretch out my legs (especially the left one) for a few minutes before I try to stand up. They sound gravelly when I flex them a lot, but that’s not new.
I guess we should be grateful that they’ve moved beyond the butt-sniffing commercial.
The problem with the Lume commercials is that they have done what they want to do, get their product in our heads. It’s kind of like the JG Wentworth commericals. You can say their phone number I bet.
I kinda know the number. I wanna do Jennys number tho’ 867-5309
I noticed JG Wentworth is making fun of themselves in a few of their ads. Asking what’s the most annoying commercial on TV. The room screams JG Wentworth. I thought that was a pleasant diversion, oh…about twice.
Hehehe, I actually currently can’t. Maybe in the morning. Either way, I’m not calling them. Anyone who advertises that often is running some kind of racket. 
Like, seriously. I can remember “Call J. G. Wentworth” but the rest is bbbbrrbwbwbwbNow. I don’t know what that says about my brain or their commercials.
You don’t remember the number that they sing in every commercial? I know it and I’d post it, but I really don’t want to give them any free advertising. Besides, I think it’s against Board rules. At any rate, watch TV tomorrow, any channel, and you’re bound to hear it.
I agree with @Beckdawrek ; I like the ones where they’re not in a theatre and singing opera, as they have for oh-so-long. Oh, they still sing opera—but these times, they’re in a sports bar and in a supermarket. Still singing opera, but the juxtaposition of opera singers in a sports bar and a supermarket is actually rather funny.
Actually, I’m wondering about the percentages they’re shaving off the top of the annuities, etc., that they claim to be paying out in full. They have to stay in business somehow (and pay for all that advertising), so they must be taking a cut.
