This commercial bugs me. Even if you think that their kids are supposed to be high school students instead of college or older like they look, what teenagers don't lock the door, set the alarm, and for god's sake, leave water running? And then the mom tells them to clean up for dinner... again, it's like the kids are supposed to be three or something. I get that teens might leave lights on, but water running, realllllly? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFyMowdZld0

Whenever I see that VistaPrint commercial and the guy who says "I'm always introducing myself, I'm always handing out business cards" I always follow it up in my head with "People know me as 'that rear end in a top hat who's always giving you his business card'."

Those loving commercials with the lovely Microsoft tablets and an iPad talking drive me up the loving wall. Yes, Microsoft, there are no games on the iPad. It can only let you read books. You can't multitask on the iPad, and there is no word processing or spreadsheet stuff on it either. And people wanna loving break dance with your tablet and its detachable keyboard.

I like that their Surface 2 ads once again do nothing to differentiate the RT version from the Pro version. In fact they seem to be trying to intimate that there is only one and it does everything. The RT version (current model: Surface 2 since RT is a complete flop at this juncture and they want nothing to do with that branding anymore) only runs RT apps from the Windows store and is held down by the entire desktop install that is only there to run the free Office Home and Student that it comes with. Literally nothing else can make use of the desktop environment. Nothing. The Pro has the Wacom pen, not the RT as they seem to be trying to imply, and runs all your regular Windows programs and does not come with Office of any kind for free. Note that Home and Student cannot be used in a corporate setting without setting yourself up for fines out the nose. It's beautiful.

I shudder to think at the kind of dumb questions the people that answer Amazon Kindle "mayday" calls are going to get. It's a tablet, how are you going to gently caress it up besides physically damaging it? I guess the upside is you can give one to your parents and tell them to push the button instead of calling you every time they want to read a book?

Those loving T-Mobile, "Our son Jeremy is in Europe and using data! Go find him and kill him for us, please?" ads are driving me insane. Every loving commercial break, I swear. And there's like 3 or 4 of them already! Look, T-Mobile, you're the least evil cell company in the US. If you ever get service around here, I'd love to make use of your $30 unlimited data deal...but not if you keep airing these annoying as gently caress commercials!

There's a commercial out now for one of the big 3 pickup truck companies (I think it's Chevy) that cracks me up every time I see it. It's just a standard white dude going through a  routine about how this truck is better, but at the end he says "...Second to nobody. And by nobody I mean Ford and Dodge."Maybe I have the brand names mixed up, but I'm hoping someone who has watched an NFL game this year could confirm.

Yeah, it's a commercial for the Chevy Silverado, and the line is "Silverado is second to nobody in its class. And by nobody I mean Ram and Ford". I must see that commercial several times a weekend, and I still have no idea why they put that line in there  Edit: Found it. I guess they're trying to say that Ram and Ford don't have its "quiet cab" feature, but they're still name-dropping Ram and Ford as being in the same class or better.

Acura has an ad in which the narrator philosophizes, "Maybe it's called the beaten path...because it can be beaten." First, it's called the beaten path because it's already been beaten. Second, what are they saying? That an acura will work on paved roads?

No, it's saying that your average car manufacturer (i.e. those who travel on the "beaten path") can be outdone (alternate meaning of "beaten.") Nobody should have had to tell you that.

I would rather watch all of these annoying as hell ads a hundred times each than see the Kellogg's Krave commercial one more time. The one where there's a hunk of chocolate going "Mommy?" in a cute little voice, evidently trying to find its mother, and then it discovers and gets devoured by a bunch of cereal. As if that's not bad enough then you hear "Sweetie?" from off screen and the cereal goes ripping towards the momma chocolate, I guess. Every time it just makes me sad, then mad. Why would you advertise your cereal with an awful story of a happy family being systematically separated from one another and devoured?

Well, M&Ms have had a decades-long ad campaign centered around anthropomorphic candies and the humans that want to eat them alive so it's not without precedent, but it doesn't help that Krave is a pretty disgusting cereal.

The commercials make it look like big Cap'n Crunch pieces filled with baker's chocolate. Is that about right? e: Also, on the subject of M&Ms, I've always loved they Christmas commercial where they find Santa, and he and Red M&M faint upon seeing each other. I've always thought it was really cute, and was a nice reprieve from other lovely Christmas commercials.

I've seen that commercial in the presence of a couple different people and their first reaction was the same double-take I did when I first saw it. Like, did he really just say this truck is actually worse in this regard than the two major competitors? I thought the first Jeremy's parents T-mobile commercial where his mom was making GBS threads on him for posting food pics on instagram was kinda funny. Then they had the one where they sold his car to some dude, and it jumped the shark real quick. Sweet ride, bro!

They have also added an online website catchjeremy.com, so that you, the viewer, can continue to stay updated to all of Jeremy's wacky shenanigans! Like every other commercial that has a "see more of this lovely ad online" website, this is just stupid. No, I don't care that your dumb kid ran up a phone bill of over $13,000, nor do I sympathize with you. The one with the parents selling his car to some douche vaguely reminds me of "Clockwork Orange" when the parents rented out his room, and treated the new guest more like a son than him.

Kinda hope there's a follow-up commercial to this one where Jeremy returns home and is subjected to the Ludovico Technique. But rather than weeding out violent thoughts, they're brainwashing him to use only T-Mobile products. "I WAS CURED, ALRIGHT! VIDDY WELL, MY BRUDDAHS, VIDDY WELL, INDEED!"

I can't tell you the company or much else about the commercial, but it has some hipster douche talking to the camera about something and he actually says "you'll think it's hashtag delicious" unironically. He does not reference twitter at any time during the commercial, nor does he say hashtag again, but the way he just so casually works it in there like it's no big deal really irks me for some reason. Ad executives think that all you need to be hip and cool with the kids now is to throw a few hashtags around on the Twitter. If Twitter went away tomorrow I would not be sad. Hashtag.
