That was part of the (unfunny) joke.
It sounds very much like the HSUS ads are the same as you describe the ASPCA ads - the are long, with sad music, and each picture has something on it like “What did I do?”. I wouldn’t be surprised if the HSUS found out that the ASPCA was making a bunch of money from their ads and just copied them…
Even if I didn’t have to mute that ad and not look at it because it’s the HSUS, I’d still do it because there is one face on there that just makes me want to go hug my kitty!
I should’ve figured there would be many kinds of these ads. Just assumed from the original description that they were the ASPCA ads I’ve been seeing - I think Bravo is one of the networks that carries them.
Those ones with no one in the family wanting to use their rollover minutes. Most of them are just dumb and not worth hate, but the one where the guy’s throwing the minutes to the dog, and the shrill bitch of a wife yells his name and it comes out “DO-ON!”
Look lady, Don doesn’t have two syllables!
Well no wonder it’s bad phone coverage, who’d wanna call Buttfuck, VT? Everyone there is either a dick or an asshole.
I was just reminded tonight of the Virgin Mobile ad where the woman in the locker room sets her cellphone down…AND HER WHOLE MOUTH COMES OFF and keeps talking into the phone! AAAAAAHHHHHH! My god! There is no creepier television commercial currently running!
What about the ATT&T U-Verse commercial with the “Happy Pony.” The parents and kids are pointing remotes at each other like a gun. Where did they get all those remotes? Then the grandma comes in and says can someone help her find something and then she says nevermind and leaves. She knows their story.
Oh, just remembered another one. That damned “ah’m a pothole!” one. WELL IF YOU’RE A POTHOLE THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP BECAUSE POTHOLES DON’T TALK WITH ANNOYING VOICES LIKE YOURS. Or any voices, for that matter.
Any of the recent Chevrolet commercials with a smug douchebag. Howie Long: “Hey buddy … you left your little man step down”
Oh god yes! If they have to have the pothole talk, why pick such an annoying valley girl voice???
That one amuses me just because I like imitating the girl who wants to watch “Happy Pony.”
What in the Sam Hill?? I am so weirded out by this one. I’m not even sure what they’re trying to sell, I’m so fucking creeped out.
Note that *doing business with the company *is worse that even the most horrible ad you can imagine.
I hate anti-depressant drug ads as they are so fucking depressing.
Ooo, the one with the sad little cartoon oval really gets to me.
I sense some people from my neck of the woods.
“Best furniture in the whole wide world!”
Vote for Happy Cows. I can’t wait until that one runs it course.
I didn’t hear that as a valley girl, but rather as an “Alabama princess”; it really sounds like a Southern sorority girl to my ears.
Valley girl is so old, maybe Alabama princesses are talking that way now?
Not that I’m going to actually listen to that stupid ad again to find out…
I encountered a new one tonight during TAR…
That Michelin ad with the CGI still-alive roadkill, struggling to reach the shoulder of the road with their midriffs permanently tire-marked. Gah! I mean, I know they’re not real animals or anything, but that’s really way too morbid for me.
