> [@rocking\_chair](#): > > okay, perhaps they didn’t notice until they were a distance away. They were startled when it baa-ed at them when they pulled into their driveway, at which point I guess they thought they should let it spend the night (made that mistake with a cat once, they never move out). ---

They started calling them herds after sheepherders got tired of being called sheep flockers and the ensuing jokes. ---

I have to say, I’m still charmed by the car insurance commercial with Shaquille O’Neal being the little kid’s big brother. Lately it’s been playing in this area with an error that cuts out the voice track, and I just watch it enjoying Shaq’s perfect facial expressions and acting chops. 😁 ---

I like most of the Ikea commercials I’ve seen, but my favorite so far is the one with the troll. It’s soooo Scandinavian! ---

I agree, and had to go find it online. Shaq is awesome in that. ---

Is the little boy in the troll’s lair in the IKEA commercial the same one who’s on the bus in the Cadbury’s commercial? They look the same to me. ---

This one for Voltaren pain reliever is sweet. “Kid” has painful knees but takes his Dad out for a memory walk. I don’t think it is a good commercial because nothing hammers home the name of the product. I had to go look it up But it is nice to see.

I don’t know why, but I cannot avoid laughing at this Jack in the Box commercial with Snoop Dogg… [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/pFa8CF_pv70/hqdefault.jpg "Snoop Munchie Meal | Your Very Own | Jack in the Box") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFa8CF_pv70) ---

As a person who is very into DIY (if you don’t believe me, check out the DIY thread), Gieco’s realtor showing the house whose former owner was “Very into DIY” cracks me the hell up. I have seen some questionable DIY vids on the internet but nothing as bad as the Murphy Tub. ---

I don’t think this has been posted. It’s a cat treat commercial that shows true to life cat behavior: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/ZH7umQiTBlI/maxresdefault.jpg "TEMPTATIONS™ CATS LOSE THEIR COOL™: Fashion Cat") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZH7umQiTBlI) ---
