The iced tea ads where the lady sees her van frozen over or the guy buys a half gallon of the stuff to drink by himself. Just fine as they are but i cannot loving stand the gulpy sounds they make as they drink it. Probably more just a pet peeve of mine but still.

FlamingLiberal posted:I still find it really insane how T-Mobile continues to air their ads bashing AT&T when they got bought out by them 3+ months ago. I'm also not sure if you have T-Mobile or go get a phone from them now you'll even have one of those special contracts once the merger is approved. I sincerely AT&T lets those exist. Alltel was still running ads ripping Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile for quite a while after the Verizon purchase was cleared, too.

raditts posted:You guys don't really think they didn't know what they were doing here, do you? Exactly. This is basically on par with GoDaddy "WEB CONTENT UNRATED" ads and the previously mentioned "Make 7 Up Yours" stuff. It's to get a few people riled up and just brand the name some more. Not any different from that dumbass thing girls were doing on facebook where they posted their bra colors or where they liked putting their purse and it supposedly had something to do with breast cancer. Along those lines, goddamn are those Helluvagood Dip radio ads annoying. We get it, guys. You have "hell" in your name. Clever.

Grandpa Pap posted:Is it just me (or my cable provider), or do there seem to be a fuckton of ads for insurance companies on lately? Allstate, Farmer's, State Farm, 21st Century, Geico, Progressive, The General, and that's just the ones I recall off the top of my head. I'm speaking strictly to life insurance here, but it's one of the very few commodities that's actually gone down in price over the years because people are living longer. Seems to be the same in auto because by and wide, people are driving safer and safety technology in cars is improving. Likewise for homes made of better building materials, less fire hazards, etc. I believe one of the first General commercials had him in Antartica for... some reason, and a bunch of those penguins were around. Guess he just stuck.

Conduit for Sale! posted:I don't even get the point of that commercial. I guess they could be trying to say that their screens are really lifelike, but from what I remember they don't even say anything to that effect. And anyway you can actually see the phone's screen on TV and can tell it's a phone with a picture of a spider on it. They do mention the colors and screen resolution as I recall so that's something, and if you're going to sell it on that point, I'll even buy the girl's freakout (loud and annoying as it is), but when you're showing your phone getting smashed to poo poo, that's probably not how you want to show the thing off. The new PhoneTec Alpha 4! Your friends will break it!  raditts posted:Smashing your phone because there's a picture of a spider on it isn't normal. hahahahaha

twistedmentat posted:I am still infuriated when ever I see a ad for a pickup truck. They still maintain the fiction that these are real trucks for real men with real jobs and show them towing giant stone blocks, or carrying the engine for a battleship. Every ad is going to exaggerate claims though. It's really not any different from showing a hybrid driving a crazy amount of miles or a sports model doing figure-8s in the Salt Flats even though nobody's ever going to do that.

muscles like this? posted:I was watching TV last night and saw a commercial for the latest "Kids Bop" and noticed that they were prominently saying that one of the songs is Lady Gaga's "Born This Way." Sensing that something might be a little off by this I looked online and surprise surprise they use a sanitized version of the song that removes any reference to sexual orientation, race, wealth or nationality. It kind of misses the whole point of the song. If they're gonna sanitize the hell out of it and use different lyrics or whatever, why even have the song on the CD at all?

We have a local Kia dealer that is currently very proud to tell you how "Kia and its parent company sold more cars than Honda last month!" And that this was a reason to buy Kias. Is this kind of like saying you should go see a minor-league baseball team because their MLB affiliate is good? For the curious, Kia's parent company is Hyundai

Friends or coworkers asking for a bite of something that looks good isn't really uncommon so that doesn't as much bother me, but the kids voices are grating. That said, they're at least not nearly as bad as they were in those older spots in the office.
