Sizzler brings back such fond memories of eating with my parents when I was a child. When I went as an adult I was so confused at the concept, but it wasn't bad. When would Sizzler even be able to run that promo?

Most Credit Karma ads are pretty bad, but the latest one where the ditsy woman had her credit score tattooed on her arm may be the worst. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbU4w6BN3Cc

Dodge has a series of commercials starring a reality show douchebag and a cgi monkey where they act like the Dodge Police, arresting people for misusing their cars. Doing such things as "driving the speed limit," "listening to classical music" or "eating a croissant."

The last straw for me with those was the Burger King man on the street style ad where they wanted to change the $5 bill to something ridiculous. It was just dumb and if they were even really trying to get real people to stop and talk to this guy clearly nobody was biting. The "how much do you think these 10 nuggets should cost" one was pretty bad too. $1.49 was a good price but that kid guessed like $5 or more which just tells me that he doesn't understand the value of things.

It feels like this year there's been something of a resurgence of "effeminate pussies (probably gay, pff) don't drive our car" commercials, because this definitely isn't the first one

This is beautiful and makes me proud to be an American.  I grew up right down the street from a Sizzler in the very beating heart of the Midwest and remember it being packed even as a kid.

There's this annoying radio ad for that breakfast defector poo poo that's made up to sound like the commercial is a signal intrusion with lots of static and station interference while the guy says "*static* WE'LL BE *static* AT *station interference* TACO BELL EVERY *static* MORNING AT *station interference* 7 AM *static* WAKE UP *station interference* LIVE MAS *static*" Makes me want to never visit a Taco Bell in my life again simply because it's so awful and annoying to listen to.

The first week of a new ad you'll see the thirty second version which may be dumb but at least makes sense. After that you get the half-length edit which makes no sense unless you saw the full version.

Pierce and Pierce posted:That's a BOLD statement! My new favorite thing to hate is commercials that have several different people reading the same exact copy and they just cut between them 800 times. I've noticed it a lot more lately and I think it first started with those dumb Gazelle.com commercials. Those and the ones where they are pretending to have phone testimonial audio while showing smiling people who could be that voice but aren't. What is the point?

The Vistaprint commercial where the dad hands over his bakery to his son is just disgustingly cheesy. I want to throw something at the TV everytime I hear the song start.

Worse than those are the radio ads that pretend to be morning zoo shows coming back from commercial, where the fake hosts spend like 2 minutes excitedly talking about whatever is coming on that night on NBC primetime or whatever. Who the gently caress do they think they're fooling with that one? Even if you were station hopping and didn't know it was an actual show, you'd know in another couple minutes when the real show comes back from commercial, and then you're just going to say "gently caress you" to whatever they were plugging for being disingenuous.

The radio ads that sound like a talk show coming back from a commercial. Yeah, right, like I'm going to believe that a talk show about mortgage refinancing took a break to play Mandatory Metallica. Yes, I listen to a station that still does Mandatory Metallica.

I really love the apparent use case here. You happen to notice that in one particular walmart in bumfuck, nowhere, USA this one item is super popular (at the time you happen to be there), and this is clearly enough to make you realize that their stock can only go up up up. You have literally no time to consider the investment because you need to scan that poo poo and get trading NOW
