No, gently caress that guy and gently caress Liberty Mutual

I have to admit though, I do find the whole Progressive "turning into your parents" bit hilarious

The Progressive "turning into your parents" thing was pretty interesting at first, but it seems like they've been digging into the bottom of the barrel for it lately.

I can't exactly argue with that, but it still tickles me

edit: Speaking of parents, when I was hanging out with my mom & grandmother the other night, the Wendy's "bad boys, whatcha gonna do when we bring your food?" commercial came on and they BOTH laughed, and I was shocked & confused

I've said it before -- it really does remind me of how razor companies convinced women that body hair was a gross & terrible problem that they had to buy their razors to solve. I just hope buttcrack deodorant doesn't become embedded in our culture.

Isn't that deodorant marketed as ball deodorant too? Ugh.

For the last week or so, on every YouTube ad break I am getting the same commercial for something called a "Japanese Language ALT" which I surmise is some kind of smart board sold to Japanese schools to facilitate learning English. The ad is almost 3 minutes long and I hit skip as soon as possible, so I have no idea what the ad is for.

I surmise it's because I've been playing the persona games and clicked a link explaining a little bit about the structure of the school day in Japan, just to have a better idea. So I guess it's my fault, but Google...really? I guess it's better than Prager ads.

I like this ham egg man though

There’s this ad for Toblerone that shows up a lot on streaming now that’s just a TikTok recipe video of someone doing some weird pear pastry with large banners on the side of the screen, and it has all the dumb editing tricks and overly-mic’d cutting sounds that make those kinds of videos insufferable

Every single one of those "sing new lyrics to a well known song/Christmas carol" songs are almost instantly obnoxious. I'm thinking of the Verizon (?) one with Carol of the Bells and the other one I think someone mentioned upthread with the Mission Impossible theme.

I'm beginning to understand very clearly now why some people despise the Christmas season.

The only acceptable Carol of the Bells joke cover is the old flash animation with the Burger King employee.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

It's a classic and it's instrumental, so no obnoxiously stupid lyrics to have to sit through.
