You Are A Elf posted:Yeah, yeah, if I were a manufacturer of something, I'd want it to look clean and new rather than filthy and unappealing, too, but at least give me a little realism eveery now and again, please. Some folks actually use and abuse their trucks and/or 4-wheel drives. I think it's Subaru that has a commercial where the guy's Outback is loving filthy and only gets cleaned when it rains on the car. Kind of a nice change. Although for realism it should be a lesbian I love driving out on i-80 through the salt flats and you can see all the places where the dumb shits drove out in their big trucks and got stuck. Yeah, that only looks like cement, buddy. It's actually mush under a half inch crust for 80% of the year.

Moms/Grandmothers I guess? I buy stuff from there because t-shirts are usually pretty good quality and cheap, and their jeans aren't terrible. However, I refuse to watch their commercials, and if ever asked I would let them know that I shop there in spite of their lovely advertising, not because of it. I have no idea who the demographic is either.

If I want to do computer poo poo, I've got a computer well and truly separate. I see no reason to combine the two. Goddammit I'm 21 and I'm already going "You loving kids and your newfangled inventions, IN MY DAY " If people can't handle being in a separate room from their TV while using their laptop, then I don't think they should be allowed to have either one. They clearly aren't mature enough to focus on one source of entertainment at a time. Well what if you're me and your desktop is actually plugged right into your tv set? My tv is my monitor. Some days I like to browse the forums and watch a football game or other event and I can't do that without using my laptop.

Bask in my 32" of glory! I use the computer sprawled out on the couch with my feet up on the coffee table using a wireless mouse and keyboard.

This is a local radio ad, so it doesn't really fit, but I have to complain about it somewhere. One of those payday loan places parodied the loving McDonald's Filet 'o Fish song.

I like to think the McRib is only available from time to time because it takes them that long to save up the floor sweepings and have them pressed into shapes. Seriously, I don't know how people like that thing. It has a horrifying texture, unnerving shape, and tastes like poo poo. I bet if you looked around you could find a local barbecue joint that had a sandwich actually made from pulled pork for about the same price.

Between that and the smug iPhone spots, I'm really starting to hate Apple's marketing department more than I already did -- and that's saying something. I'm quite a bit older than the average poster on this forum ( ). Kids/young people have always dressed retardedly and looked like poo poo, it just gets more apparent the further you get from it. Things I've personally lived through: Bell bottoms and polyester everything. Not the nice polyesters that mimic natural fabric, but the heavy, melt-to-your-skin-in-a-fire poo poo. Parachute pants, padded shoulders and "new-wave" haircuts (jesus gently caress those things were ugly), plus bangs that stood straight up like There's Something About Mary except not with jizz. Pants so loose that the dipshits wearing them had to hold them up with one hand. Also "grunge." Now kids wear skinny jeans and don't cut their hair. Whatever, gently caress it. Although I am amused whenever I see a kid dressed like a punk and want to tell them I saw people dressing exactly like that 25 years ago. poo poo, they probably got that jacket at a thrift store from some person who found it in their closet and anonymously dropped it off in the middle of the night.
