On the subject of lovely ads, the current Liberty Mutual one showing an "old VHS tape" of a kid opening up Liberty Mutual insurance on Christmas morning is really obnoxious.

Because tbh I love those.  quote:I also had it in my head for some reason that billy blanks died a while back Timby posted:Maybe you confused him with Billy Mays? I know I did, at first.

As someone who bought a house a little over a year ago you do find your personality changing a little. Not like full on "become your parents" but you do have to start thinking about more practical stuff because there's always something that needs to be done.

Are you married? Have any kids? When you are all three simultaneously, it’s not a little change. I was 29 when I had a chat with my four year old about turning the lights off when leaving a room. I don’t understand Earl Sweatshirt and loathe music made since 2005 (except AC/DCs albums). You do eventually turn into your parents, and at 47 with that toddler graduating college and living in an apartment with his girlfriend I cannot wait to be like all of my grandparents. Except for Alzheimer’s.

First you say "every light on in this house? Who am I, Thomas Edison?" as a bit and then it becomes a real sentiment. I saw my neighbor kids hitting a ball in the street and I said, "guys, we live a block from the park, why don't you go over there so you don't hit my car?" I'm getting real close to get off my lawn territory.

Remember when parents hatched fully-formed from parent eggs? None of this newfangled "growing up" and "learning responsibilities"! Boy, those were the days...

My dad worked for the power company, so we got the "I only work for the electric company, I don't OWN it." When mom gets a little too boomery for my taste I blurt out "BLUE. Blue hair," at her until she stops. Those ads are really great.

I’m 29, got married last summer, and gay as gently caress so we’re not planning on having any kids, but about to buy a house; so this gave me chills, because, gently caress, I know it’s coming (it’s already mostly here, oops I spent a $100 on antiques today)

Turns out there's a reason commercials with bodily fluids uses blue liquid because Always has a tampon commercial where they use a red liquid and it is so much worse.

Incredibly bothered by this Carl's Jr Midsommar spoof ad where they pronounce habenero as if it's habañero. Also what a weird thing to spoof.

I put on PlutoTV when I want thoughtless background noise and their commercial for their new love stories and suspense channels uses a muzak version of some eastern european tango or something, it's super familiar but I can't figure it out and none of the song-identifying apps/websites are helping and they play it all the time and I'M LOSING IT

Nick Jr. Face posted:Out in Colorado we have similar ads for King Soopers where they're dancing to "Apple Bottom Jeans". If you told me 13 years ago that a hit song by T-Pain would be a commercial jingle for a local grocery store chain I wouldn't have believed it. Same, but with that LG washer/dryer commercial with "Got Your Money" by ODB/Kelis.

I think its great to finally see. But they still don't have the consistency right, so it really still doesn't help. Blood isn't urine so it's not going to absorb immediately into the pads; and where are the clots and lumps? I was shocked and delighted that they mentioned "the gush" though. Steps forward!!

I've never seen a gush mention, but that's awesome. If bears can sing about their asscracks, gushes can be mentioned. Also, I assume that the nice thin liquid absorbing seamlessly into the pad is just an upsell, like how Subway subs in commercials alway have heaping portions of perfectly layered cold cuts even though we all know that's bullshit.

They're going real hard this year with "since you thought this person was funny 25 years ago, surely he's still funny now." Gotta admit, though, that Beavis and Butthead snickering over crack was absolutely fine.

Lotta bad commercials last night but the two I remember the most were the m night shyamalan trailer because I originally thought he was poking fun at himself and it was gonna be an ad for doritos or something; plus the I don’t even remember what for commercial (tide? it’s working) but the one with the Jason Alexander where the ad agency did a great job of writing for Jerry Seinfeld because it’s all Seinfeld right oh also the clarice trailer because rip to another good season of Hannibal

That was the thing I remembered the most, lots of repetitive commercials. Clarice, Paramount, state farm, a way too long commercial of Anthony Anderson that I didn't get, two of the Tracy Morgan commercials that I kinda liked. At least last year's tide ones were kind of a surprise.
