The thing I hate most about this is the shot of the couple making out while shoulder pressing barbells. How did they even get in that position unless they lifted them separately, then walked toward each other while holding at least 50 lbs over their heads to kiss? That poo poo is dangerous.

Either way, it is super loving dangerous to lift weights that close to another person, let alone move towards them and give 'em a smooch.

And because that's what you do in the game. You ping and pong, a lot

I actually don't hate that frog insurance commercial. For one, I like that this man somehow thinks a credit card company will protect his frog, but more than that I love that he literally has a ton of possible fraudulent uses of his account listed in detail and somehow thinks that information applies to his frog.

Commercials that use "cute, precocious" kids in them can gently caress off.

"Congwatuwations, daddy!"

:barf:

Seriously? I have very high doubts that kid even said the line. Sounds like some badly dubbed ADR


And then pretty miuch all of Care.com's lineup. Again, overly "cute" kids, usually with lisps.

And i saw one yesterday with a little girl making a spaceship out of a cardboard box...that's fine, but for some reason they stuck an N64 controller on it.

What 5 year-old kid in 2015 has an N64 just lying around?

Though I guess now that I think about it, her parents are likely my age, and therefore the controller could belong to the parents.

Those eHarmony ads with CEO Grandpa and his impossibly precocious granddaughter are the worst offender to me. Of course eHarmony caters to people who still have Norman Rockwell calendars and listen to A Prarie Home Companion so it probably works like a charm.

As if the Rob Lowe commercials weren't bad enough I just saw a local car dealership commercial that parodies it.


Although I'd be lying if I said that Meat Head Rob Lowe's "This is my sound" doesn't make me laugh each time I see it.

I've always thought that kid didn't say that line. It sounds like an adult making a kid voice going GLALATION DADAY while the kid is like wtf is going on here, I just wanna play with my goddamn hula hoop.

One commercial that pisses me off is the Kia commercial where the parents have killed their kid's fish and are rushing to replace it before the kid gets home from wherever. So this kid is so emotionally delicate that she can't handle the honesty of a death of a pet, but she's precocious enough that she can walk home alone from wherever the hell she's coming from while the parents dick around like idiots. Not only do the parents not know how to care for a pet, since they killed the first one--okay, fine, fish are hard to care for and they die sometimes--but then they dump the fish directly into its bowl--not even a tank, no filter, just a big ol loving bowl with some gravel in it--without leaving it in the bag first and letting it acclimate, which is RULE ONE OF FISH CARE (I mean seriously I don't have fish and i'm not even particularly fond of them but goddamn at least know the basics before you get your kid a pet). So they're willing to drive like maniacs (while their emotionally fragile little dear is bopping around the neighborhood either on foot or being dropped off nearby, but hey, safety's not an issue when you have a Kia!) to keep their precious little snowflake from knowing about death for a few more months but they're willing to kill any number of goldfish to keep that from happening.

gently caress, man, I don't even care for fish that much, but some assholes should just not have pets. I've also never been a big fan of PeTA, but I kind of wish they'd latch on to that loving commercial and never let go.

So I thought this was gonna be for like make your own chicken at home sometime! But no, how naive of me. It was a commercial for.....wait for it......KFC!

Yes, KFC is trying to guilt you out of buying those delicious rotisserie chickens from the grocery store and instead buy a disgusting bucket of fried chicken from them.

I can't even express my rage for that commercial. They manage to make takeout rotisserie chicken look and sound like the grossest thing in the world. Seriously, the sound effect that opens the ad. :gonk:

I used to live with two cats. One cat would let you brush her and get all that spare hair off with that fancy brush that cost a lot of money. The other cat would react like the brush was a tool designed to cause him death and he hated it. Loved to nuzzle all sorts of non-human things, so he probably would have made such a device useful.
