Holy god, I hate that Cee-Lo Green Sprite ad where the little kid is "beatboxing" (or whatever) and imitating the can opening. Instant mute button.

Good being relative of course. I do miss those kickin' coneys they had awhile back. Was just a regular coney with bbq sauce and fried onions, but it was actually pretty good.

As far as fast food goes sonic is one of the better ones. But thats just cuz all Florida has is Sonic and the supergenerics like McD, Bk, and Taco Bell.

I kinda feel sorry for all the states that don't have Raising Cain's. How do you even tailgate properly without that stuff?

Cain's sauce is great, but the chicken is dry and stringy. Slim Chickens (which is currently only in Oklahoma and Arkansas, unfortunately) is the superior chicken place.

I love Chik Fil A, and ironically I love them more for their terrible politcs. Because they are not hiding that poo poo. "Yeah, Sundays? We're closed Sundays. Every other fast food place doing some spring fish sandiwch specials? This is a Lent Menu, fuckers. There's a mural just inside, you can see all the charities we use your money to support." And y'know what... fair deal. They make it clear what they stand for, and everyone gets to decide how much their morals are worth up against a really, really tasty chicken sandwich. Mine always seem to fall short.

I'm incredibly lucky that the only Chik Fil A near me is in a food court, flanked by a Panda Express and one of those delicious Japanese grill restaurants, because otherwise I might not be able to resist. But lo, my morals stand strong, and they're powered by Orange Chicken.

Clamknuckle posted:They play it every single break during Survivor. If that's on so much during Survivor, wouldn't it be a 7-Up ad, then? I know there were a couple moments in one episode where pretty much the whole point of the reward challenge was to shill for that. EDIT: I assume it's this ad you're talking about? Yeah, that's 7-Up, not Sprite.

Getting really tired of seeing the HTC One camera phone ad every ten minutes. The ad itself isn't too awful (minus the weird looking people who look like they are from Deus EX Human Revolution), but it just so annoying to see all the time.

Mr. Clark2 posted:The Verizon commercial with the mother/daughter crying now has about 80% less bawling in it, guess they read this thread. Yeah, I saw the new version tonight and they completely toned it down. They're still crying but its not as shrill and you can actually understand them. Still a horrible commercial though.

I noticed it was different because they took out the subtitles. I think if your commercial needs subtitles in the first place you need to tone it down.

I saw it more as an extension of the whole "let's put what were saying on the screen because people reading it mean it'll sink in more" trend like from the Ford Truck commercials was Denis Leary.

Maybe I'm being nitpicky, but the hair on woman who's driving the buggy in this ad annoys the hell out of me because I think it's a wig. I know there's a chance there isn't and the way it's styled makes it look fake, but the point where her hair ends and her forehead begins doesn't look natural to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOGbeEpRpSQ Also, the ad itself is starting to get on my nerves since I've seen it quite a few times on TV already (especially during American Idol) and it's getting to the point of being annoying overall.

The hair on the temples looks normal. She just has a tight comb over-ish thing going on her bangs.
