If I see/hear the Go-Big Show ad with the acoustic guitar lady singing "Drop It Like It's Hot" one more time, I'm going to stab myself in the eardrums with knitting needles.

There is this loving commercial on loving hulu that's for grubhub, a terrible company. Anyway it's got these godawful Dreamworks reject characters dancing around and eating and it makes me want to die. Ok, thanks for reading.

Dreamworks rejects is a very apt description and probably encapsulates why I hate that commercial so much. The smugness kills me.

Speaking of wanting to die: Ty Pennington is apparently in need of some extra cash, so he's cutting ads for the Virginia Lottery where he bellows "GOOOOD MORNING, VIRGINIA!" It'd be great if I never had to hear him yelling at the top of his lungs again.

Wendy's has a commercial for their new Jalapeno chicken sandwich that compares it to the Big Mac for some reason.

That's a low tactic: attacking an innocent bystander. The Chicken Wars are getting out of hand.

It's really bizarre because it shows dumb Mcdonald's executives being excited at the idea of an extra bun in a burger as a new thing. The Big Mac has been around for over fifty years.

I’m not even sure why Wendys is trying to gently caress around with another one when they already have the GOAT fast food burger joint spicy chicken sandwich

I think it's pathetic whenever a fast food chain decides to go after McDonald's in a commercial. It makes them look bush league.

Any fast food place that takes potshots looks stupid because none of them do things that differently. Like when Popeyes was throwing shade at other restaurants seafood selection by showing the "other guys" in freezers while the Popeyes spokeslady is standing on a dock talking to (actors pretending to be) fishermen. Trying to imply that Popeyes' seafood is fresher somehow even though they also just use frozen.

There's a new Allstate ad where a guy's singing about his savings - and the hood ornament joins in. Something about the animation on the hood ornament is profoundly disturbing to me.

Coke never says they're better than Pepsi. They're just Coke, an unassailable juggernaut. They don't need to try to say they're better because you already know that they are.

All booze are very bad, but bourbon ads are just absolutely insufferable. Especially this new breed of "smooth, classical coolness" that they're trying to portray. Like the one for Wild Turkey has a dude calmly talking about how he calls it "hot spice" or something. "You don't have to like it, it's not very everyone, but you know it when you like it."

The AirBnB commercial where they play Dolly's "And I Will Always Love You" over pictures of a dog make me think it's another ASPCA ad and not a "stay at a stranger's home" ad. And there's another ad, for what I don't even know, but as the camera pans down a block of houses, it plays some old timey song where some elderly sounding woman sings about birds "swimming" in the sky. God, I hate that ad.

I want jingles to come back. Ban twee covers of pre-existing songs, ban variations of pre-existing songs, ban pre-existing songs altogether -- reintroduce jingles to the masses.

gently caress, it just occurred to me that Kars 4 Kids is also a jingle. Is it more annoying than twee bullshit? I'm honestly not sure.

I think though that a lot of songs that we grew up with that we thought were jingles were actually just covers. I only found out like 6 months ago that the famous Skyline Chili jingle is just a cover of some old 50’s song by the Platters.

They still do jingles, you just forget them until something triggers them in your mind. You hear the word "farmers" or "liberty", or "buy" and "car" in the same sentence, and your brain is off to the races. They're just not as involved as they used to be.

Agreed on jingles if only my 4 year old will stop walking around singing "oh oh ohzempic!" You'd think he could also read because he recognizes logos that are just stylized text like Academy or Kroger

No, no jingles. This is how we get those loving cable company songs where they take the phone numbers and jam it into a song with no regard for meter and flow. "Dial 1-800-543-7-6-5--2" Is that what you want?

I still remember the mailing address for Nick in the Afternoon because it was set to a song. Jingles are both a great joy, and an inescapable hell.

Did anybody else have VHS tapes of commercials from, like, the 50s and 60s when they were growing up? Someone got them for my parents and I watched them a lot and know a few jingles that weren't being used by the time I was born because of it.
