Every Microsoft commercial that has that same loving Sarah Bareilles song "Brave." They all end with "I want to see you be brave." Hey Microsoft, I shouldn't have to be brave to try out your lovely phones or tablets. Speaking of Microsoft, the Xbone commercials with the dudebros playing Call of Duty: Ghosts and yelling "Xbox, record that!" every five seconds. Almost every time they do it is during a cut scene. It's not like they pulled off some sick no-scope 720 for their Youtube montage, literally everyone that plays the single-player campaign through will see the exact same thing.

Oh my god this JC Penney commercial where they changed the lyrics of Feliz Navidad makes me angry. Not only are the lyrics terrible, they actually sound like the laziest lyricist ever wrote them. They make sure to squeeze in the Spanish words amor and grande right at the last second because hey guys it's a Spanish song!

Stairs posted:I love my e-cig, but would never dream of using it in public and I'm with you on the regulation thing. Mine doesn't even use nicotine anymore (because I slowly removed it) but all I can think of is "If I used this in public someone might think it's real and try to light up themselves and then everyone will hate me." That by itself is enough reason to me to not let it be allowed in public. Those commercials make us normal e-cig users (I hate the term "vapers") look like smug douchebags. Also thanks to Jenny McCarthy watch the drat things turn out to cause Autism. The one thing about McCarthy's ad that pissed me off is how she makes sure she waves the damned thing around while she's laughing it up with her friends. Yes, Jenny, we get it. You have an e-cig. Now go gently caress yourself with it. Mister Kingdom fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Dec 10, 2013 |

carry on then posted:Somehow I think it was both staged and the exact same photos they were showing. However, it is not unrealistic for people not to recognize a complex shape that is only 30% drawn. I don't know, even the really incomplete maps are still pretty obviously an outline of some portion of the U.S.

Yet again, the issue of regular shits is so vital and all-encompassing that people on a motherfucking double-decker bus are subjected to a perky blonde bimbo shrieking and laughing about how healthy her colon is now that she's slamming down poo poo-pills like Mrs. Pacman. Do not accept her advances, semi-attractive couple! Throw her and that insufferably healthy colon over the railing and demand a refund!

I can't find it, but that AXE hair commercial that plays on the South Park website a lot where there are two opposing videos going at the same time, in which one has a girl demonstrating a technique for making a quick bun with sort of wet hair, and the other is this douchebag who quickly puts some styling putty in his own hair and spikes it up, then walks out of his area to fast forward the girl's video until the end which takes a whole whopping 5 minutes or something. So many things bug me about that video, but mostly it's the dude's smug loving face when he fast forwards the girl (not to mention that video is like a how-to tutorial and wouldn't be fast in the first place but whatever). AXE isn't known for being PC but dude is straight up like, "can you believe this chick is still talking heh". ugh.

Not that I was a fan of AT&T's commercials before (and I can actually tolerate some of their "interview the schoolchildren ads") but are they just stuck on running the same drat one now as often as possible? And what place are you in? ...Kindergarten!

What is the song that plays on the commercials for Grudge Match? Because I'm hearing it play on no less than three other commercials in circulation right now, and it also played on commercials for R.I.P.D. There are definitely worse songs to oversaturate on TV and radio, but enough is enough.

Only hearing it on 3 commercials at the same time is a relief compared to how many commercials had it in the spring / early summer.

I don't know if Modern Family is good or not, but man I am tired of hearing ads for it on USA. Almost literally every commercial break you will get two or three ads promoting the fact they are now airing re-runs of the show.

I don't know if it is national or not but here in the Philadelphia area I am seeing a XFinity/Comcast commercial where a parent is dropping off his son and daughter at their grandmother's - the kids don't want to go but then they find out that their grandmother has XFinity by Comcast!!! So now they can watch all of the same shows they would have at home! It is a truly soul crushing commercial. All this old lady wants to do is spend some time with her grand kids but the stupid little brats only tolerate her for her TV.

Or them being on an episode of law and order at some point earlier in their career. That airs like every break, but they left out that they were airing the "Cool dudes in random episodes" marathon, including Michael Shannon and James Urbiank. And Jane Krakowski. As a crazy lady.
