The Lays ad with the bug eyed lady from Blackish is the woooooorst. She does all the cutesy voice overs for the products she's drooling over and it's insufferable. The country twang for bbq is just... someone told this woman (who I know is famous and has a famous mother and I can't think of it right now) that she is precious a few too many times and she believed it. The Praise You ad is for Walmart and I think it's for their personal shopper service but I might be wrong. I don't always look up from the computer. There's a bizarre ad for perfume that features Lady Gaga whining something. Also that daisy daisy daisy daisy daisy perfume ad is pretty bad.

Just saw an ad on youtube so bad that I'm finally going to look into getting an adblocker for my ipad. Most of the ads are more annoying than anything and skippable, so I've tolerated the ads on my ipad until now (I have ublock on my phone and laptop). So if you see an ad with a guy dressed up in a really bad orange dog costume squatting on a lawn...I think the worst part happens before it even lets you skip. I was considering youtube premium, but after seeing this one I don't even want to give money to youtube anymore to avoid this.

This Colonial Penn where the wife mentions a guy, and her husband says "The 76-year old guy who still runs marathons?", and she says "not anymore" -- I have some concerns: 1) No one talks like that. I don't talk about people I know by specific age. 2) "Not anymore!"  I thought this part was both funny and morbid, and it made me expect this commercial to be about his bum knee or something.

My dad is in his late 60s and was in the Vietnam draft, so someone in their 70s now couldn’t have been in WWII. Where did the last 20 years go?

I got rid of cable and only see the occasional ad via YouTube on Roku devices. Can't think of any recently that made me want to throw something at the TV so... good? The Mercedes Benz deer nose thing was pretty bad but luxury car commercials have always been crimes against all senses and that one wasn't really notable above others. But on the podcast side of things does Maximum Fun just let any moron with a microphone get a podcast? Some of those ads are so twee-as-cringe I want to drive my car off the road and die.

I think I've only got one Max Fun pod in my rotation still (oh no ross and carrie) but I was thinking to myself how much I hate the ads for the other in network shows recently and how they were all very similar.

I yearn for Maximum Fun ads when I hear Acast Network ads. Their targeted podcast ads were pretty creepy so I opted out of tracking from them but the ads you get and the podcasts they recommend when they are not tracking you are annoying instead. Candy Crush, Drizzly and all the various mom casts are too much. Three shows I listen to have joined the network as I imagine their ad rates are good.

The only Maximum Fun podcast I'd occasionally listen to is Mbmbam and the ads for other Max Fun things made me really think that the McElroy empire is all that's good on that network. If I can think of a Max Fun podcast ad it's usually something like this: Dude: Hey, I'm THIS GUY! Lady: And I'm THIS LADY! Dude: And we like comparing literary history to donuts! Lady: So we're gonna read some history and eat some dough Dude: Isn't it nuts! *twee music cue* Dude: Listen to Do-history-nuts now!

I love Justin and Griffin when they show up on other shows I like and I was really into MBmBaM in the early days right up until they went to MaxFun and then fell off hard for some reason. I can't even explain it. Travis is fine too as part of the trio but any of his individual shows or when he's on stuff without his brothers I get very little out of it.

I used to listen to The Flop House, but it just became too grating on me at one point, and pales in comparison to We Hate Movies. Over the years I've tried out various MaxFun pods, but I usually drop them after a while, because they're just not fun for me. A lot of them feel like they get to the point where they reach a level of popularity and just disappear up their own asses. It's not just a MaxFun thing, but it feels like the concentration is much higher there than anywhere else. I really don't understand the appeal of the McElroys either, because no matter how hard I try, I find them annoying.

Had she wound up pregnant, I definitely would have married her (fairly strict christian) self as it would have been the "right thing" for a young buck army man to do. if said imaginary child did the same thing i did, i would have been a grandfather before the age of 40 lol. poo poo, that would have made my teen mom mother a grandmother at the same age i am now lol. thankfully, she got a reprieve...until 2006 when my brother knocked up his high school girlfriend
