Oh yes, beautiful women would certainly interfere with your enjoyment of a cold beer, but since there IS good beer available, the women are no more noticeable than refrigerator magnets.
I agree, a guy who focuses on a shitty beer rather an the beautiful woman in lingerie standing next to it is pretty much the epitome of stupid.
The guy on some commerical for wireless Internet who demands a “wire” for his laptop. The kids are saying “It’s invisible Daddy.” I bet Daddy’s income is invisible, because anyone that stupid wouldn’t be able to hold a job
The people who can’t cook at all in the MacDonald Breakfast ads are pretty dumb, but I still hate in particular the Stupid Couple in the Chase credit card ads who blow the vacation money on a dress, then go on vacation (perhaps having sold the dress) and are bothered by the “noisy” party. They’re even worse on the radio ads.
Nah, that card being advertised is aimed at an income level of couple that can afford to laugh off spending points on a dress that’d be worth as much as a tropical vacation. If the commercial pisses you off because of the wastefulness, you’re not the target audience.
The husband did start dancing at the rowdy hotel, only to be cowed into submission by a glare from his wife, so I guess he is whipped.
Lots of good nominees in the thread already, and surely lots I haven’t thought of yet, but here are my submissions:
The people who march up to the grocer to complain that the package of frozen food – which they have not bought yet – is too large for them to eat all at once.
The lady who eats two dozen bowls of cereal so she can get as much nutrition as one bowl of the advertised brand.
The guy who puts on different disguises and keeps going back for more free samples of the fiber bars, because he doesn’t believe there’s fiber in them. (Fortunately, we don’t get to see him an hour later in the bathroom.:eek:)
Except for the husband in the credit card commercial with the hot white who used all their credit card points on a dress, and in the sequel didn’t believe his claim to be able to get a human quickly when calling said card company. She was clearly being mocked.
And in the early Glade commercials with the tall lanky comely redhead, it’s clearly the husband who comes off smarter.
I was thinking of the dude in the…Subaru?..commercial who loses his sunglasses on a long trip. The couple goes back, wasting gas and daylight, trying to find them, before he finds out that they’ve been in his hood all along. If my boyfriend did that, I’d be PISSED. And I would expect the same reaction from him if I was the one who did it. What an utter waste of time.
The point, of course, is that because the dude’s forgetful, they get to see “so many cool places!!” But if you keep having to go back to look for stuff you’ve lost, presumably you’ve already BEEN to all these cool places. And you’re not going back to them to see them again, you’re going back to look for your stupid sunglasses!
It’s not the wastefulness It’s the stupid. And the dress price does make a difference, because the husband says “We can take this trip…” and the wife keeps trying to say “we can’t” – she blew it all on the dress.
Anybody drinking Corona beer. The stuff is swill at any temperature. And by letting it set in the sun in a bucket full of ice, they are just skunking it further.
But he’s talking about using those points and cashing them in on a trip. She’s trying to tell him that they can’t use the points because she already has, at which point he chuckles indulgently. And, as we see in the sequel, they go on vacation anyway.
I think their other commercials have been better, though - newlyweds using the iPhone app, dude running out of a restaurant to make a withdrawal from a convenient Chase ATM while date’s head is buried in the menu, daydreams of crime-fighting when Chase notifies you that they blocked an attempt to compromise your account.
Oh, I do hate the one with the girls talking about a boy (Chad?) and then assuming that a text their mom gets must be from him. “Chad?” “No, it’s Chase.” Why the hell would Chad be texting their mom?
