The new Quicken Loan commercial.
“Without scary, we don’t get to be brave. Buy in,” the ad concludes.
The “scary” could be because you can not afford it.
How about the one where Matthew McConaughey drives a Ford, not because he’s getting paid to, but because he wants to?
The car commercials with the “real people, not actors”.
Sorry - as soon as they are in front of a camera - they are actors** - even more so since I know you did not show any negative reactions and I’m fairly certain they got something in return for appearing in the add.
** who last I knew were still real people most of the time
Ummmm. Netflix and a DVR. Haven’t seen a commercial in years.
Bully for you.
Not just a Ford, but a Lincoln.
“I’m often told I have the best pair of legs in the room.”
Or really Chico’s lady? Do they also mention that you look like you’re eight and half feet tall and about as sexy as a rake handle in the last shot?
I hate all that yack yack yacking in between the drug commercial half-hour. Drugs-Drugs-Drugs blah blah president Drugs-Drugs-Drugs blah blah California dry spell Drugs-Drugs-Drugs blah blah … its as if they are trying to force me to hear about world news bits between all those wonderful drug stories.
I can’t believe my doctor is a real doctor. He doesn’t underscore the Important Drug Name (and adds gibberish about quantity) like the doctors on tv! Just The Name! That’s all that’s needed.
At least I know I have a good couple of minutes to step away from the tv.
1-8-7-7 Cars for K… <urk!> change the station! (Actually, I manage to change the station in the car while the intro song is playing.) The one thing I know is that the kid singer says “tah-day” and the adult singer says “to-day”. What’s up with that?
I miss Brad.
Yeah, as soon as I hear that “Dung-dink dung-dink…” intro, I flip stations or just go to listening to MP3s. That commercial is actually sabotaging the radio station for me since it’s not as though I flip back after thirty seconds unless I was really invested in something – 90% of the time I just listen to something else for the rest of my trip.
Whatever. He sounds really creepy. “I don’t eat puppies for breakfast because I get paid to, but because I want to.”
Mike has superfast internet from Time-Warner and as a result all of his neighbors come and bum his broadband. A woman is trying to download a movie. A man is trying to stream a game. A kid wants to play a game. And they all just walk on in; he never says “Sure, come on in”. Apparently, they must all be sitting in his living room to use it as well. The commercial ends with “Get the speed you need with Time Warner Internet”. And I all I can think is “Get the spine you can’t find and tell all those deadbeats to get the hell out of your living room. And change your network password, you wuss.”
His voice is so cool I’ll listen to him pitch anything.
What I like is ads for drugs where the side effects are worse that what the drug is treating! *Suffer from itchy spots? Get this drug that ruins your immune system and puts you at risk for death! *:rolleyes:
The ones showing people (even babies) speaking while not using their own voice. Maybe those don’t bug you but I find them to be incredibly creepy.
Actually, I like his reaction, it’s realistic. They are his neighbors, and he knows them, and is willing to put up with them. It’s kinda nice, actually.

Patrick Warburton is simply the coolest guy on the planet.
That’s right.
Really? I find him to be unbearably smarmy and sarcastic. National Car Rental already had the coolest Patrick in the world.
The couple that start retching because of their coffee table? I can’t take the one, I thought they finally pulled it since I hadn’t seen it in a while but then it reappeared.
And BOOBS! weren’t enough, they then had to up their game by putting her on a horse so they could get some nice bouncing boob shots and when that wasn’t enough they had to have her getting out of a bath so she could have some wet fabric clinging to them. Now, you’re not even pretending this is about a game anymore.
Heh – yeah. Um, I’ll just live the with heartburn, thanks. The one where I did a 180 was Botox for migraines. The fine print says it’s for folks with more than 14 “headache days” a month. I’ve never had a migraine but I can imagine if I had them for at least half the month, I would be willing to try poisoning myself with botulism.
