It is probably useful for them to point out that darkly colored beer isn't more caloric, which a lot of people seem to think.

back in the 80's/90's, stuff that was advertised to adults was done in a different tone and with a different type of messaging, so it feels like I'm being talked down to when someone has XXXTREME DORITOS LOCOS TACOS or whatever else.

I remember being so irritated as a teenager seeing all of the X-treme Chocolate Milks. I also think that Yoplait's Go-Gurt should have been marketed towards adults on the go, driving to work or whatever, rather than at kids riding skateboards doing sicknasty kickflip mctwists.

A lot of not-poo poo gas station have free air stations, at least in my area. Like other people said, if they can't find one they live in a shithole. I have never paid for air in my life.

You're a group of companies whose businesses largely depend on PC sales. PC sales have been dropping rapidly as smartphones and tablets have become ubiquitous. Additionally, computers last longer than they used to. What's your grand scheme to lift sales again?

The worst truck ads I saw recently were the ones where they take a group of people and show them two pictures, one of generic white guy in front of a regular, non-rear end in a top hat person car, and the other is the same guy in front a giant gently caress off rear end in a top hat truck. They ask what the group of people think about the guy in each picture and its basically with the car its all "He looks like a pussy" and with the truck its "he looks like a MAN".

They might as well shoot an add with a bunch of cartoony gay guys driving down the highway in car listening to lady gaga and being all fey with tiny dogs and fancy coffees, only to have a giant gently caress off truck driven by a bunch of guys with big beards and confederate tattoos with a flatbed where they're making whiskey and have hunting dogs crush the car and the words "Don't be a fag, BUY A TRUCK!" burst onto screen.

And yes, there are people who can use trucks, but the marketing does not target them, even if its glamorizing them.

There were so many commercials like this on during this past Super Bowl. *human being drives a scooter down the street while a REAL MAN drives past in his new $50,000 truck*

Speaking of Burger King, there is a ad for the crispy chicken sandwich that absolutely infuriates me for its idiotic concept.

It displays a person's tweet disparaging the sandwich and then has the person sitting in a Burger King blindfold eating a chicken sandwich and then he's shocked that it was a Burger King sandwich and how good it was, much to the delight to the mascot and the clapping of the crew offscreen.

He's already in a Burger King, why is he getting blindfolded? How is it going to be a surprise that a person brought to a fast food place is served fast food and it's fast food from that place? gently caress YOU BURGER KING

Someone a few days ago was telling me about how 24 hours after being juiced that juice is no longer good for you. I asked, "where do the nutrients go after 24 hours" and we decided to talk about something else instead. Thanks for reading y'all god bless.

What I don't get about the Juicero is that it saves the consumer little to no extra effort, and costs shitloads.

I mean, whose life is so busy, or is so lazy that they are prepared to load up a bag into a machine, and maintain said machine, but is not prepared to pour juice from a carton into a cup?

Is it that much easier tu ose the machine than it is to go to the fridge and pour yourself a glass? Is it worth $400?

The type of person who would microwave a pop tart. Unfortunately that type of person does not also want a $400 juice squeezer. Or maybe they do. Will the Juicero withstand the test of time??
