I have seen that one. Some moron thought that would be cute with the whole “overprotective dad” stereotype thing. As a dad who has a daughter, I find it offending and disturbing.
I saw part of some Marvel movie promo. Don’t know what movie, don’t care. The annoying thing about it was that it just seemed full of lazy cliches. Hulk is running straight at winged guy (who has Capt America’s shield for some reason, don’t care). Winged guy jumps into the air and does a slow motion rotation as Hulk runs underneath him. He then lands in one of those tri-pod landings. I don’t even watch superhero movies and I think I’ve seen these moves a hundred times. The lack of imagination is insulting.
Falcon “inherited” the role of Captain America after “ Endgame.”
Wiki says that not only does the slang currently exist, it is evolving to include modern celebrities.
For bonus points, you may or may not have noticed that it wasn’t the original-recipe Green Hulk, but the derivative knockoff Red Hulk.
I’ll buy that good link!
Yes, to make the tourists happy. There is even some personage who has declared themselves “King of Cockney Slang” or something, dresses outlandishly and entertains the rubes.
I am sure it used to be a real thing, but it is now mostly there to entertain the tourists.
If I studied this for the rest of my life, I would never understand it. Easier to take up Chinese, I think.
As with most slang, that’s rather the point. You have to grow up with it.
On another ad, I’ve just seen one for the latest Samsung Galaxy where a young chap asks AI for help because he’s put too much sugar in the pasta sauce he’s making. Who the hell makes pasta sauce with sugar?
Depends on the tomatoes - some people use sugar if they are too sour.
I use a tablespoon of sugar in mine. Of course, my recipe makes about two gallons.
That sounds almost as ridiculous as the Meta ads I’ve seen on YouTube, featuring a dimwitted guy who asks the Meta AI questions about what to do if the food he’s cooking needs acid, or how to make his child eat breakfast. Bonus: the AI implies the guy should know the kid likes smiley faces drawn on his food.
I use about a half-tablespoon in mine; but then, I only make a gallon at a time. So it works proportionally.
First thing I thought of.
The chafe commercials are gross. The woman who narrates it says she thinks the backlash against it us fatphobic. Really? I don’t really care what the women in the commercial look like; I don’t want to watch them reach up their skirts in public to rub the stuff on. A couple look like they’re trying to insert the stuff.
I think it’s a good product, so’s deodorant having said that I wouldn’t apply either on a public sidewalk.
Oh. I’ve noticed that too.
Maybe a 4th of July thing?
IDK.
Crown Royal.
♫ I’ve got one more silver dollar… ♫
I know the song was written when silver dollars were still being made, but even then they seemed somewhat rare. Now? Who the hell carries any silver dollars?
I have one in my wallet (a Bicentennial one). A cashier noticed it and was fascinated with it when I was paying for a small purchase in cash. No, I didn’t spend it. 
I had a clerk at a convenience store try to give two dollars change in silver dollars. No thanks. What the hell am I going to do with it, except explain to the next clerk that it really is money?
Bulleit bourbon. ‘We could talk about notes of this and hints of that, but our bourbon is for drinking.’ Now I like Bulleit bourbon (and rye); but their commercial sounds like, ‘Who cares what it tastes like? Let’s get sloshed!’
