You know what ad I don't hate? The NBA Store. After sitting through countless annoying ads before watching Youtube videos it's refreshing to just get a 3 second still image saying "NBA Store".

SpookyLizard posted:what the gently caress even is 'twee' I think it can refer to a certain kind of pop music, but basically it just means something that's sweet/sentimental to the point that it's kind of ridiculous and a little sickening. Here's a whole lot of words about "twee." Kimmalah fucked around with this message at 12:45 on Feb 1, 2014 |

i really like how they added the grizzled sound engineer at the end saying she didn't write the song otherwise it'd be annoying as heck just seeing her doing cutesy manic pixie girl things

Well it's certainly the new emo in that people love to act like everyone who uses the word doesn't understand it. It's that exact aesthetic of being overly sweet yet lolrandom combined with a bit of indie-sounding music.

Speaking of mom commercials, I'm not a fan of Old Spice's newest campaign where a bunch of sad moms sing (badly) about their boys becoming men while trailing them and being pulled around by weird special effects shots. I normally like Old Spice's campaigns, this one just kinda went into creepy territory. (The grim David Fincher cinematography doesn't help.)

The more I see commercials for Ciroc vodka (which is a lot, because Around the Horn and Pardon the Interruption are my guilty pleasures), the more I realize that "Luck Be A Lady" is a pretty drat chauvinistic song.

Well if Dean Martin sings it, you can pretty much assume that it is. I'm still baffled at what the gently caress Puff Daddy and his aging mobster stereotype friends are doing at the end of the commercial where they're on top of a building howling at the sunrise. Seriously, what the gently caress is that? Are they reverse werewolves or what?

ASPCA, Unicef, Heifer, World Wildlife Fund and all of those other organizations could probably pony up their collective change and buy a Superbowl commercial. It would make enough people feel sad and awkward that the FCC would tell them to cut it the gently caress out or they would get enough donations to never need to air another commercial.

Most of their donations go to paying for those commercials, they would just air more if they had more money.

Grown son, arriving at vacation cabin: "Sorry we're late. We stopped by the house." Dad: "You did? Did you leave everything in good shape?" Son: "Sure." Dad checks his phone app, discovers house is *not* in good shape, corrects everything with the push of a button. Great, right? Except if your fancy phone app is so awesome, why didn't it tell you that the kids stopped at the house before? That way, you could call the kids while they are there at the house, and have them turn everything off. Also, nobody leaves the kitchen sink running due to forgetfulness. Lights on, sure. TV, maybe. A faucet? No.

There's a lot of stupid commercials out there, but it seems like the thread always rolls back around to this one. Because seriously, no one leaves the faucet running when they exit a house, that's moronic. Unless it's those Wet Bandits I've been hearing about, I guess. vvvv Hell yeah, that would be an actually useful thing, everyone has that moment where they can't remember if they flushed. It's practical AND great for pranks. Notgothic fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Feb 2, 2014 |

You'd think that, and this isn't a "house" so maybe it doesn't count, but we've hired people at my work that have literally left a faucet running all night or for hours during the day. It's only happened three times between the two occurrences but some people just are that stupid sometimes.

I'm convinced they did it on purpose just so Dad would have a reason to use his "faucet" app. I mean, when else could/would you use something like that. I bet they're all leaving the faucets on all the time just so that smug fucker can turn them off with his phone. "Yeah, we do that just so he'll shut the gently caress up about it."
