Another "what were they thinking?" commercial thread

…as opposed to the admiration of her peers and respect of her mother in law, which isn’t nearly as satisfying.

Now here I’ve gone and released a phrase into the wild, and I done goofed it up. While I originally typed “no more fucks to give,” it’s really more effective as “out of fucks to give.” It’s more satisfying because you can really emphasize the word ‘out’: “Dude is out of fucks to give.”

Maybe some are on back order, and the fucks will be restocked after vacation. Or maybe he’s decided to stop carrying them at all, and will forever be out.

And now I’ll stop hijacking your thread. :smiley:

Certainly not something I would ever bother worrying about. :cool:

Seriously. Shall I call us a plumber. Or two?

:smiley:

same here. perhaps if the brother gave her a shoulder push and said “dork!” or something.

i have noticed that siblings get along better when they aren’t living together.

i’m an only, so perhaps that is why i didn’t think anything of it.

Perhaps this image will help clear up the confusion about the “out of fucks to give” issue.

See all those (non-existent) fucks? She has none. So she doesn’t give a fuck. She’s out of fucks to give. She has no fucks to give.

/no longer giving a fuck about this hijack

Your usage was perfectlyvalid. Now, put that Odetta back on. I aint drinkin’ no SoCo, but I have a glass of tequila here, and it’s delicious.

Having watched the soco commercial I don’t even a little bit get a pedo or sleazebag vibe. Dude has no more fucks to give if people don’t like whatever he is laying down. I am not about to drink soco but nonetheless I’m raising a glass. :slight_smile:

I like this one:

I don’t get an incest vibe in the Folger’s ad. shrug

Ma’am! Yes ma’am. How about Don’t Think Twice? Maybe the gallis pole? Here’s a lullaby.

Drinking Mickey Finn here. 35% apple Irish whiskey.

The product I’d never, ever buy because of a commercial is cat treats. Have you seen this one?

Co-worker: Nice boots!
Guy: They aren’t boots, they’re my cats.
Shot of two cats clinging to his feet.

Like I need cat treats to make my cats more annoying than they already are.

The ones where people are so excited to get a box of 5 Hour Energy Drinks for Christmas.

The Accu-Check Nano ones with the pop song. If I wasn’t looking at the TV I’d have no idea it was to check blood sugar.
However, I love the Duluth Trading Company ads. They are cute.

Can somebody please explain 5-hour energy drinks? You suck one down, and collapse at 2 in the afternoon? Which means you have to go for coffee, coke, or another 5 hour energy drink, right? Why not just make the bottle bigger and give you 8 hours? Or will that cause a heart storm and ruptured veins?

I’ve never had one… I have never had a red bull or rock star either, so I have no idea what they do to you… Bit they must work, because they are selling like crazy.

Advertising is the art of making people absolutely HAVE to own something they didn’t even know existed five minutes ago.

Because my husband is tired of my ranting about this commercial, I’ll come here.

The Jared commercial with the “red hot love bead.” Why? WHY? Why is the name of this charm supposed to be TMI? Are these people supposed to be that sheltered? Am I supposed to be laughing? Even for Jared, this is stupid and weird.

They work. And if you need more than 5 Hours, you buy more.

I used to drink them every four hours to get through an 18 hour drive. They were much more effective than gas station coffee. I never became hyper or jittery, it just put me on rails. And it somehow holds my eyes wide open.

Oh and this annoying piece of shit:

The lights, the lights, the lights that light the lights

You can’t have a thread like this and not mention some of the stuff from Orbit gum. This one still just weirds me out every time. Really funny but strange.

They’re caffeine and sugar. And some fancy stuff like guarine and taurine which I believe your body just converts into either more caffeine or stuff that helps you process more caffeine. The real genius of 5 hour energy is that they got rid of all the water. I like caffeine and I drink about 5 cups of coffee during the work day. If all I cared about was the caffeine 5 hour energy would save me a lot of bathroom trips.
