There is nothing I want to be. There is nothing I want to do.
I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.
How about the allergy medication commercial where the guy is talking to a convertible? The first line is "I wish I could own you, but I can't take your top down because of my allergies" or something like that. I was putzing around on my phone the first time it came on and wasn't watching so the audio alone made me look up and say WHAT??

Two most hilarious things to me about those commercials:

1. Find God's match for you
Granted I'm not an expert in how God works but I am suspicious that God would refer us to a paid website.

2. The song in the background.
The verse "I want to fall in love with you" is kind of hosed up. You want to?

In the end, I would rather watch another ChristianMingle commercial than another Zoosk commercial.

Well you see, God helps those who help themselves...by forking over tons of cash to various people. Not charities though, He hates charity.

Reminds me of the Hoveround commercial with the guy singing:

"Hoveround takes me where I wanna go~
Where will it send me?"

If it takes you were you want to go, why are you wondering where it will send you? Who's in control here?! :tinfoil:

The best part is that these are the best things they managed to come up with for the trailers. I'm having trouble even imagining how bad that movie will get in the non-trailer scenes.

Seriously. It's not even a joke like it, where the inceptor simply says "Did I wash those?" and hell throw a little brown on one of them for a reaction instead of straight up the same loving joke from a vastly superior and funny movie. Basically this all hosed up and they write like a fag and they're poo poo's retarded.

I'm sure it's been said, but any Microsoft Surface ads with all the drat CLICKING and dancing (that's not even very good?) just people slamming their hands down in timed configurations. Ahhhh the clicking!!

On the other hand, there is something about the Gangham Pisatachios ad that I just can't turn away :) I think it's the lady nuts dancing old-school team mascot style with just their legs sticking out and no way to see where they are going... I might be missing an important part of my brain but it makes me giggle for no reason.

Just think of how much Microsoft must have spent making and running those commercials, and how little it makes you want to buy their lovely tablet that is apparently great because it has a snap in keyboard. Apple ads are either a few people just doing things or a product on a white background and they can't make enough product to sell.

It should be a requirement that you have to dance like the ad if you bring one to a business meeting.

I spent a good portion of a paycheck on a big tv a couple years ago, good amount of time running speaker cable through the attic, calibrating levels, running an auto-eq for each channel with a test microphone in various spots in the room only to come home a few months later to our couch turned like that "it's more open!" (I can drag it back pretty easy at least though)


I had to look up what that is, apparently just a usb drive that has an autorun.ini on it that launches a website, a website with just links to hundreds of other websites, local news and such with videos on them. edit: beaten. didn't see that.

I cannot loving stand this new series of Burger King commercials. The one where there is some hellish Whopper Jr. dance party inexplicably filled with occupational stereotypes and the one where the manager is singing to the same people. For some reason the music in both is just so annoying and grating to me. Also, I rarely eat at Burger King, but didn't the Whopper Jr. used to be 99 cents? So all that these people are celebrating is that their sandwich is now 30 cents more expensive? :toot:


There's one of these commercials where a black guy in a police uniform shows up, and it just sounds to me like he says "A five girl whopper junior?"

There is no way those two families would go their separate ways without considerably more profanity, threats of violence, and possibly an attempt at a lawsuit.

The one dad seems wholly unconcerned that his child was almost killed, in one angle you can see him casually sauntering after his child running toward a clearly moving vehicle (see 17-18 seconds in).
