The person driving it off works at the dealership - presumably they’re going to clean it before putting it on the used car lot (or not if they send to auction, but I’m trying to reduce your “Ewwww” factor).
And then there’s that disgusting Zyrtec commercial, with the carpool passenger who sneezes into the blob of whipped cream on her drink, which is consequently splattered all over the windshield. They should have had the driver say “Bitch, you clean up that shit!”
Does not motivate me to buy Zyrtec.
Not sure if this one was mentioned, but this McDonald’s adin which the boss is playing cards with his employees and one of the employees has a winning hand, but decides not to play it because he wants to curry favor with his boss and hopefully get a promotion at work - just what message exactly is McDonald’s trying to send here?
The Liberty Mutual commercials.
“My insurance policy doesn’t do what I want it to do because I’m too stupid to read and ask questions. I didn’t pick the wrong policy, I picked the wrong insurance company.”(to paraphrase the ads)
Yeah, never buying insurance from that company.
Hate is a strong word, but that Graco car seat commercial showing how it adjusts as your kid grows? That last shot of a tall gangly kid rockin’ out to music, and sitting in a car seat? Isn’t she a few inches and a few years beyond a car seat?
Probably not honestly. At least in terms of inches.
I always think of my college ex in situations like that. When we dated in college she was 4’3, she would always point ads out that talked about the right size for a car seat and would say “If that were the case I would have been in a car seat my freshman year of high school!”
There’s been an Orbit gum commercial running during the weekend Cops marathons featuring a bride-to-be who’s just left her fiancé at the altar. She’s riding off in a limo while we see him running out of the church trying to find her, and she’s got this smug “Ha ha, loser!” look on her face as she pops a piece of gum in her mouth. The voiceover is something like “He’s got money, a car and a career, but that doesn’t mean he gets to have you. Time to shine!”
Tha hell? Well why did you agree to marry him then? Was it an arranged marriage and she doesn’t even like the guy? We don’t know. Did she decide at the last minute that she was marrying him for the wrong reasons and that it wouldn’t work out? Okay, shit happens. But that’s generally not a “Hooray!” moment in someone’s life, and she looks pleased as punch. The commercial want us to see her as the hero and him as the villain, but it never gives us a reason why.
Yeah, they have this in a few ads and ect, and it never made sense to me. Just say NO!
Jack says his combos are great, because “the other guys” use “wimpy, kid-sized” burger in their combos. But that’s complete BS. The “other guys” have combos for everything. There are Big Mac or Whopper (not in any way “wimpy kid-sized”) combos, of course, but you can get combos for everything they offer, including BKs hot dogs.
On what planet does Jack live? Is this the Trump/Fox news idea of a commercial - tell an obvious untruth like it is a fact, and everyone will believe it? Even though they just had a Big mac combo just for lunch today?
The one I’m hating right now is for booking.com, the one with the kindergarten teacher who is letting all the little brats run wild while she tells us how important her vacation is to her. Really? Using “kindergarten teacher” as a stand-in for “jobs that suck” seems pretty low to me.
And she’s obviously horrible at it. She needs a permanent vacation, as in fired.
The one I’m hating isn’t a TV commercial, but one of those ads that plays before YouTube videos. I don’t even know what it’s for (I think it’s Groupon) because I never get far enough to hear it before killing it. It starts out with this loud, nasal woman “singing” (I put this in quotes because her voice makes fingernails grating on blackboards sound like a symphony by comparison) “You are watching beauty videos…” I think the rest of it is about Groupon, but that’s the point I always kill it, so I’ll never know.
Whoever made that video should be shot with a rhino tranquilizer and sent into orbit with that jingle playing on 24/7 looping repeat.
As soon as I hear it, instant fast forward if I can, or almost instant mute if I can’t.
Lipton Iced Tea is using the song “S.O.B.” in their new ad.
I wonder if there is a political jab there against teachers bye Booking.com? She is soooooo bad at her job.
After a certain (RECALCULATING!) television commercial (RECALCULATING!), I am RECALCULATING! my already minuscule (RECALCULATING!) intent to buy a Jeep when my present car finally “dies”. :rolleyes:
Linky?
That* is* fucking stupid and annoying.
