I’ve stopped watching live TV because of this scumbag. I thought we had bad TV lawyers back in Michigan, but these assholes are really something. It must be something in the UV rays.
The other horrible commercial I’ve only seen since moving here is for Law Tigers, the motorcycle lawyers. I couldn’t find anything on YouTube, but it has the worst CGI tiger I’ve ever seen in the commercial.
They are paid for by Big Tobacco, what did you expect?
You get that Morgan & Morgan guy too? He was whom I was thinking about in my first post…
The one that really gets on my nerves right now is the Pizza Roll one where the mom takes a plate of pizza rolls out of the microwave and sets it on the counter and a hand punches through the wall and grabs the rolls and a voice yells “thanks, mom!”. And the mom, instead of screaming her lungs out at the brat and making him clean up the mess and patch the wall, just laughs and says “ok”.
I have to tell myself that she knows her child is deranged and incredibly strong and that’s just a nervous hopeless laugh because otherwise she would cry as she fears he will one day kill her while she sleeps.
Oh. My. God. Are you fucking serious?
I’m oddly sickened by the Dominoes commercial with the 30 minute abs guy. He’s a creepy douchebag, and nothing about that makes me want to order a cardboard pizza.
Here in Baltimore, we have commercial for a law office that reaches new heights in lows. Frankly, it turns me off on the whole concept of lawyers in general.
“I just ordered Domino’s. We’ve got 30 minutes. Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”
“…what are we going to do with the other 28 minutes?”
“Well, first, I’m going to smack you in the face for being such a Goddamned bitch.”
Also, the new Time Warner commercial where the fat bastard husband is sitting on the couch watching tv and being amazed by the DVR. The too-hot-for-him wife of course says something to make him look even more stupid than he already does.
I swear, ever since I read a thread on here talking about women in commercials belittling and degrading their male counterparts, I see it everywhere . As has already been mentioned, the Sonic commercials are some of the worst offenders in this regard, but I also see it in commercials for every product known to man.
Oh, also, I’d like to bang that Felicia chick from the cheetos commercial.
Old joke, but I found it pretty hilarious the first time I saw it on tv in the Domino’s ad. It’s pretty much the only “30 minutes” commercial from them that I can tolerate.
Spare me. The ads are clearly designed to be not at all lifelike, and are supposed to be just downright funny. They are.
Which ad is more likely to make consumers remember the product – the one that airs now, or the version that goes “oh, shit, John-- take a look here. The idiot construction workers just dropped a port-a-potty on your new Benz.” “Phew-- good thing I have Nationwide.”
I think the Nationwide ads are great-- my favorite is this one.
Jeez, what about the latest Alltel commercial (which is far from new anymore, but they still show it all the time) with the loser hollering “WIZARD!” which causes the magical wizard to jump off his van and talk to Chad about his call circle? The other commercials in this series made some kind of sense, but now the nerds know magic?
And have y’all noticed the fat kid’s been replaced? Yes, the idea of the loser companies fighting “cool” Alltel has been run into the ground and now your cast members are flaking off. Please. It’s time to just let it go.
And while we’re complaining, I see they’re re-running all the good Geico caveman commercials. All except my favorite, with the one who orders the roast duck and mango salsa. I want to see that one!
The Briggs and Stratton lawnmower commercial where the wife is berating the husband for buying a non B&S mower that won’t start. Does B&S power any model of backhoe? I’d be getting one to bury her corpse behind the garage.
The Brother’s Main in Madison had ads for years where they appear. A year or two ago their ads had two really old farts. I finally figured out they were the two brothers. They used their old footage for about 25 years, and suddenly they show up as old.
I hate the ones for Arby’s–most recently the one where the construction workers are ignoring the pretty girls and then go wild for the nerdy guy with the fast food.
It’s not the concept I hate so much–I mean, yeah, they like the food more than the girls, ha-ha, and all that. No, that isn’t what bothers me.
It’s those giant Arby-rections floating above their heads that give me the creeps.
I’d be afraid that if she wasn’t pleased, she’d do something awkward with a Cheeto.
clapping
I’d think she’d have to do it with the unpuffed ones, though. The puffed ones would disintegrate before she got them in…
How about the new ads for VW.
Yeah thanks, I’d like to come into your dealership and have some asshole with the key fob make the alarm go off when I try to get near one of the cars you are trying to sell to me.
Fuck you, I’ll go somewhere else.
We do a lot of work with the junior associate in “The MD-JD’s” office. Mr. MDJD actually insists that his office always be referred to as “The Law Office of Michael J. Barszcz, M.D., J.D., P.A.” on all documents.
And if you think the Morgan & Morgan commercials are bad, you ought to try drinking with that fat fuck…
