I know a lot of dogs who would grab that stupid groundhog by its neck and violently shake it until it snapped its neck.
I live in a large city. I've seen everything.
No, it doesn't upset me. I don't really care. The idiotic ad, based on the assumption that the viewers are hostile toward lesbians and interracial couples, does upset me.
The wife watches a lot of the cooking shows and Hallmark channels. Over and over and over they show and play the commercial for Daisy Sour Cream. If I hear that jingle for "do a dollop...do..do a dollop of Daisy"!! one more time. It's worse than getting pins stuck into your ears...
Taco Bell Different Definitions of Sharing: Two annoying pretentious morons. Yeah, mixing sauces is a brilliant "move"
The one where they are at the airport really rang true for me. I always get there very early for flights and bringing snacks along instead of paying 10X the price at the counter stands...
I love those commercials. Every time the one where the guy grunts when he sits down my kids would just say, “Dad”. Pretty funny.
Recent one now being played to death - guy and son in a canoe and dad says it's time they had "the talk" ... which turns out to be about cell phone coverage. Dad says he can even get 5G "out here" or words to that effect... but you can see a city skyline in the background. Also cringey when dad says he want to show him a video he made with mom...and the kid cringes as if he thinks it's, what, a sex tape?
worst ad campaign of all time - hands down is the damn Charmin bears with itchy butts. Bring back Mr. Whipple.
And of course, have to add the Flo ads that we've been subjected to for what, 15 years? I think you could get elected president with a 1 plank platform - send Flo to Gitmo.
I will never buy those products, ever, b/c I hate these commercial so much. Charmin and Progressive spending millions and millions to drive customers away.

+1. I like the one where he takes the "live" or "Eat" signs and throws them in the trash.
I do disagree with him about buying as opposed to bringing snacks on the airplane.
Have you seen the price of Pizza flavored Combos at the airport?
Not sure you are understanding that one. It's not a Broncos costume.

If the people in the commercial are really taking it, they should go to a geriatric doctor immediately.

Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis and Shaggy. Cheetos commercial I believe, Awful.
The highlight of their day is sitting in their dingy apartment eating Taco Bell. Oh yes....I wanna be them.
I don't like the Flo commercials, except the one where they are in a meeting and the guy says his cousin was thrown out of the talk group because of grand larceny. The pause is classic.

Unrelated to this topic but related to this post, I woke this morning with- for absolutely no apparent reason- the song Islands in the Stream playing on a loop in my head. It’s just bizarre and I can’t shake it.

hmmm and I saw a brand new stock Jeep Grand Cherokee 2018 make it back into to Wheeler Geologic in the winter. I think it comes down to the driver .
I wish someone would shoot himYou have a problem with Gus? The second most famous groundhog in Pennsylvania?

He’s dressed as a horse and his friends answering the door are in Broncos Jerseys, tell me what I am not understanding.
It’s a radio ad and possibly regional, but the Kars for Kids radio jingle drives me nuts. I immediately turn the station when it comes on.
Hate Flo. Hate Limu Emu and Doug. The Taco Bell sharing commercial annoys me too. Love the Progressive “turning into your parents” campaign though.
RE: Springsteen. He made $500 million last year. We have almost nothing in common. I’ll assume whatever he promotes is likely not in my best interest. Love his music. Saw him live once and it was a great show. Don’t give a crap about his opinions.

+1000 and its not just a radio spot there is actually a TV commercial here in the Bmore area. And yes the tv either goes to mute or previous channel.
LOL.
I can’t change the channel or hit the mute button fast enough when she comes on the screen klomping around in red high heels like Herman Munster in drag. And it’s on CONSTANTLY.
Yeah it’s an uncomfortable moment because his costume is about some potentially weird other non football role play fantasy such as a centaur situation.
Agree - I don’t care for them.
The latest is the one where goofy sister invites Flo over to “talk insurance”.
Flo says - so you want to talk to me about insurance?
Sis - no I want you to talk about insurance.
And the baby falls asleep.
I know she gets the message out, but when your spokesperson is used to put a baby to sleep because insurance talk is boring….?

It's a centaur costume. Some people take their love for fantasy novels and the seemingly hundreds of fantasy-themed video games into the world of "cosplay." A number of years ago I attended a conference at the Gaylord National Harbor near DC. The hotel was also hosting a fantasy/comic book convention that included a whole lot of cosplay. Some of attendees were pretty over the top and were behaving in character, but most were just having fun. It's not my cup of tea, but it doesn't have to be.
How is it possible that no one has mentioned the Dr Pepper FANSVILLE commercials??? Easily the worst one out there. And to think, some ad “genius” got paid to think of that!
I thought it might fit into cosplay but I don't totally understand the definition of that. Cosplay to me seems like 365 Halloweeen.
I don't think there's much more to it than playing dress-up as your favorite whatever, but I like your definition. Full disclosure: I'm a history buff who was investigating Civil War reenacting before I got married; one could make the case that both activities are just another form of dressing up and pretending.
