Something weird I've noticed in Safelite commercials is that they always fake the windshield damage. It is especially goofy in the one where the guys in the ad are supposedly damaging the windshield on purpose.

The most recent one probably did bank on him freaking out since that's what he did last time they changed something.

I wonder how many times now I've seen that mesothelioma ad for that law firm with the old lady who says to call now and receive so much more. 100,000 times possibly.

I'm not exactly sure what xfinity is advertising in its "10G" commercial, but smugly putting stuff like "The future is so bright!" into the mouths of ten year olds rubs me the wrong way when these kids are going to be dealing with the worst of climate change thanks to megacorporations like Comcast. gently caress you, xfinity; the internet should be a utility available to everyone for free.

Ticks all the obnoxious-as-gently caress boxes for me: x Monkey cheese random x Annoying, pointless gimmick that overstays its welcome x Gimmick has little or nothing to do with the product they're trying to sell (more about memeing than advertising).

This might be a Canada thing, but one I’ve been seeing a lot of is for medications which can be summed up as ‘hey go ask your doctor about this drug’ without telling you anything about it. I assume it’s some advertising regulatory thing, but all I can see is doctors repeatedly telling people ‘no you don’t need it’.

Sounds better than the US, where we're treated to thirty second recitations of the side effects of corporate meds shilled on TV. Often the side effects are as bad as what the meds are trying to cure. Ah, unfettered capitalism...

I like the side effect of "may cause death" on some medicine. Yeah I think I'll just deal with my eczema instead of taking medication that might kill me.

You actually see the same thing in America because advertising laws for drugs basically say that if you say what it does you have to list all the side effects.

There's been a slew of new obnoxious ads that originated as super bowl spots like that Uber Eats one, also that one where the people say "Well" to the tune of Stayin' Alive that really sucks. I don't think this was a SB ad but I've been seeing one for Sprite or that new Starry soda that features like 10 seconds of someone going SSSHHHHH that also really sucks. Also, have commercials been getting louder or am I getting older (possibly both??) ? I feel like there's been way more commercials lately where there's sounds that completely overpower whatever I was watching before it went to a commercial. I assume this is intentional because it's usually a song or something that gets stuck in my head like the chick-fil-a theme that if there's a TV on somewhere in the house it just cuts through every other sound. I remember this being a problem in the 90's that I think was outlawed at some point?

My "favorite" thing about those drug ads is the follow-up ad six months later for a class-action lawsuit if you or a loved one suffered from heart attacks, loss of memory, lung collapse, or death after taking WonderDrug 73829. You may be entitled to a settlement!

RIP Vioxx. A great non-steroidal and non-opiate painkiller for arthritis... Just ignore all the heart attacks and strokes.

Anything from 4imprint. Their commercials started out having these cheesy rear end instrumentals and background music, and now recently every single one has some stupid chick squealing over her corporate office bullshit like she's at the live concert of a boy band.

What really gets me is "don't take X medication if you are allergic to it." HOW THE gently caress DO I KNOW IF I'M ALLERGIC TO IT IF I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT Like, I'm violently allergic to acetaminophen and bananas, but I only found that out the hard way.

I get sweats. My bones are cold. My teeth are loose. My heart gets really, really hot. I can read minds. And sometimes I wake up driving a stolen car. But my erections are fantastic. When I wear gray sweat pants, people cross the street. Which is fine. Xentrex gave me my life back. Hail Satan. Wait, I know I've seen a commercial for something where "ruptured taint" was an actual side effect. Sash! fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Mar 3, 2023 |

I think it was Jardiance which had a side effect of "potentially life threatening infection of the pereneum, which is a fatal taint infection.

There's this one commercial for an injury lawyer or hospital or medical organization or something, I don't remember. Anyway, this lady talks about the doctors telling her they were going to have to amputate her leg after an injury, and she says something like "I just wasn't going to accept that" as if people who DID have their limbs amputated gave up & were totally cool with it or something. Anyway, that bugs the poo poo out of me. edit: It was actually "That just was not okay with me" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FD742HpfFHo YeahTubaMike fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Mar 30, 2023 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ak0bslL3KkQ My girlfriend thinks this is meant to appeal to Trumpers. I'm certain that whoever directed this commercial told the girl to dance exactly like that because I don't think anybody dances like that. Either way they play this literally every single commercial break on the local nbc sports channels and holy poo poo make it stop please.
