How about the most depressing stuffed animals in existence? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICHKMrkBzfU The only reason this commercial is burned into my brain is because it was on during an airing of the Garfield Halloween special in the late 80's, and I drat near wore out that tape with how much I watched it. exploded mummy posted:"They do exist"  My wife and I quote this one to each other constantly in December. *dopey voice* Uhh, Santa?

Anyone in PA probably also knows the PA Lottery "12 Days of Christmas" commercial by heart, even if they updated it a few years ago to be in HD and have some people in it who weren't white.Iron Crowned posted:YouTube has channels where people just upload blocks of commercials from old VHS tapes. It's bizarre, but whenever I start, I just can't look away I personally prefer food commercials from the 60s or earlier, because they're all very boring cereals and and snacks and whatnot by today's standards, but were kinda revolutionary at the time. Like, maple flavored instant oats were apparently a big deal for getting kids to finally eat a breakfast cereal.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ic3CV051-AQ An artsy commercial for a crappy candy bar. I found this (well, not this exact video) on an old VHS tape I had from the 80s. I specifically left in in the program I had taped.

Oh, are we including Christmas commercials in the "burned in our brains" category? Because in that case... Seasons' greetings in our souls Yummy Fruity Pebbles in our bowls *sleigh bells jingle* Uh-oh, here comes you know who-oo Yabba-dabba-frui-ty-licious doo Ho-ho-ho I'm h-h-hungry... Santa?! My pebbles!! Your Pebbles?! 'Tis the season to be sharing, Fred! Merry Christmas, pal. Aw, Fred. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MadGwgiRgAM I haven't seen that commercial in years and I still nailed it word for word, except for the "Happy Holidays" in place of "Merry Christmas", which I'm almost positive is correct in some version of that commercial.

There's this youtube with two versions side by side, and it looks like the racial makeup is identical, which I don't know if that's more or less weird. Like the asian woman is replaced by another asian woman, black guy -> black guy, etc. Unless there's another even older version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44fBRRwHn3Y ... Comments on some other video make it seem like they kept some / all of the audio from the 1992 version, now that's weird.

The whole argument regarding the practicality of socialism, summed up by two sentences about a twenty-five year old cereal commercial.

So Pentatonix (?) has replaced PurpleMoose (?) for twee annoying xmas ads. Ugh. But has anyone seen an ad that's a cartoon about a big black family together at christmas and everyone is gathered around the fireplace, wearing sweaters, and fanning themselves? I could swear a black comedian did a bit about that a long time ago, but I haven't seen it since the first time and I want to show it to my mom. Can't think of WHAT they were advertisinh though.

This morning I saw that Kia commercial with Manheim Steamroller, followed by an ad for the Cincinnati Zoo's Festival of Lights, which used the exact same song, followed by the Kia commercial again :shep:That70sHeidi posted:So Pentatonix (?) has replaced PurpleMoose (?) for twee annoying xmas ads. Ugh. Pomplamoose, sorta made sense at the time since that tinky tonk poo poo was really big at the time. Pentatonix doesn't really make sense, I was unaware that choir was in fashion again, I mean Glee has been off the air for like 5 years now.

Pentatonix is one of those things that nobody really likes but still gets exhumed every Christmas season to butcher some holiday classics, just like Michael Buble.
