For the best car insurance rates online, go to the general and loving hell I hate that commercial. And then there is this one too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1qWoOljtjE If you can pause it at 0:08, and read the fine print, a $5,000 loan at 116.73% APR for 84 months. I'm ashamed to be a fraction of Indian heritage, and a little piece of me died the first time I saw this commercial. trunkwontopen fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Jul 13, 2012 |

No More Heroes posted:Progressive isn't very progressive. They can't be. I have no idea how my insurance increased when I moved from Saginaw to a smaller town outside of Grand Rapids. And, talking about Beats audio, I have to nitpick that commercial with the guy running, playing that "Feel so close to you right now" song. One of two things has to happen, either he is a loving moron that doesn't know that Rio Vista is a brisk 4-5 minute walk from his apartment door, or he has that song on repeat while he is jogging. Commercial doesn't make a lot of sense, and I get that AT&T wants you to feel so close to being lost in the music. Either way, he needs to feel so close to a bus that runs a stop sign. trunkwontopen fucked around with this message at 13:56 on Aug 2, 2012 |

 I'm in a band and I need to post a status update on my facebonk page but my 3G phones don't use data anymore which means that I need to update my phone to 4G data speeds so now that I can do that, do you want to be our manager?  I understand that there is a drive for cell phone providers to move their customers from a 3G phone/plan to a 4G data plan. But these commercials as of late make it sound like that as soon as 4G gets lit in a metropolitan area, those that are on 3G are signalfucked.

Parasol Prophet posted:I am disheartened that that "Happier than Eddie Money running a travel agency" Geico commercial is still on. It's not so much the song (although I hate that song), it's the two people persistently trying to remind him of what they really wanted, as if they don't recognize that he's singing a song. The saddest part of those commercials is that, since these movies generally get bad/negative reviews, they virtually show every "funny" part of the movie in 2-3 different versions of the commercials.

Russell Simmons followed in Montell Williams footsteps and how has one of those "debt" commercials on TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnzSF9gKgRQ Featuring the PrePaid Visa! It's like these people's money runs low from being so popular in the 90's/early 2000's, and need some spending cash. So they resort to hocking something.

The AT&T commercials with the little kids. "Which is better: More or Less?" And then the one girl rambling on and on about nothing that makes any sense what so ever and the AT&T guy is following along because that is what makes the commercial adorable and smart, right? I would like to see less commercials and more actual TV shows.

They come on like 4 or 5 in a row but they're for completely different products. I googled for it and this is apparently a pretty widespread thing - it looks like all these youtube links are from North Carolina and I live in Pennsylvania. Trade you. I see a bunch of "Injured? Wrongfully terminated? Do your pants fit? Does your neighbor's dog? Better Call Ernest P.

I've seen this commercial multiple times in my hometown, which is mostly farmland, so I understand the demographic, but also in my new location, which is the second largest city in Michigan, surrounded by suburban homesteads and $350,000 apartments. The first time seeing this, I thought I was either on a local, closed circuit channel, or in the middle of a sketch comedy show. Let's ad some content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4Lwh8KMfzc At first I thought these commercials were cute, but now they are just getting obnoxious. I see these 10 times more than the legit, Most Interesting Man In The World commercials as of late. trunkwontopen fucked around with this message at 10:03 on Oct 6, 2013 |

The "King" commercials are getting on my nerves. They make one app that does really well (Candy Crush Saga), develop a new game that uses the same formula (Pet Rescue Saga / Farm Rescue Saga), and advertise it on TV, only to make more money to develop new games using the same formula (Annoying TV Commercial Saga, Anal Salad Bar Saga, Bird poo poo Saga). It's a cycle that won't stop.

Rirse posted:I already hate those commercials for that reason, but it also helps they are a very greedy company who tried to copyright the word candy and used anyone who used the word "Candy" or "Saga" on itunes, including Banner Saga, a fantasy strategy game. They are capitalizing on the classic match three game with a slight variance. Right down to the core, its just another bejeweled clone. And, I'm with you; there is no Saga. The story behind the games are your basic "match these jewels to save _____ from the evil ______." But, the levels get harder, and that's where the micro transactions come in! That's where the money lies; the first hit is always free. And the kicker of these cutsey, bubbly commercials? They show them during Law and Order SVU, and other real-life crime shows with graphic dramatizations of murders.

Amplifying your message, McDonald's had a contest a looong time ago, featuring the whole "Two All Beef Patties Special, etc" song. A record came with a meal (yes, record) and it featured a chorus of sorts singing that song. If you had the record where they completed the song, you won the grand prize. I still remember that to this day. Anyone else? edit: I spell like garbage when I'm ill.

I always wonder what happens to people that play those types of commercials, if they get razzed by their friends. Like, they call her up and say "Hey, girl! What's buzzin'?" Or, like the one dude that played in an erectile dysfunction, Allstate (his car gets crushed by the tree branch), and Vonage (he steps off the train) commercial within the same year. I can't imagine what his friends/family do to poke fun at him. gently caress, I pay too much attention to commercials; all the lovely ones that I wake up to (2-3pm) are all lawyer, scam college, and/or single mom commercials. I can't find the one mesothelioma commercial that says if you have died to call some lawyers firm. trunkwontopen fucked around with this message at 10:40 on Mar 23, 2014 |
