I’m imagining this said in Tracy Morgan’s voice.

I was driving my coworkers in San Antonio, where I grew up, and found myself talking like a tour guide explaining all the landmarks and museums. Im my fucking parents. That commercial hits close to home.

The line monitor at the book signing gets me. It drives me insane to see an unorganized line.

Really glad to see the ad wizards at JG Wentworth finally came to their senses and returned to making commercials featuring their opera style jingle.  So much time lost in the darkness...

I had just gotten around to eating my first Whopper since my West Campus, .99 cent Whopper days.  I can't possibly fathom spending another cent there until this run of ads is over.

Does advertising work? IT JUST DID.

Freshman year at Pitt, the Burger King one block away from our dorms had a weekend deal with 3 cheeseburgers for $1. I think I ate 33 cheeseburgers that weekend. 

I love Whoppers. The last one I ate tasted like ass. I think they gave me a veggie meat patty.

I think an interesting Twitter/Blog/YouTube channel would be a breakdown of the cost of houses used in commercials -- especially for automobile commercial.

Seriously, seems like every house I see in a commercial is $5 million+

The "chatting everyone up on the elevator " Dr Rick commercial is great too...

"That was terrible, we're going to try again"

That one is great, but that's a different actor playing Windbreaker Guy, isn't it?

I was also super partial to the Lexus December Commercials from like 10 years ago where the 16 year old girl would go outside her double-entry front door house running to the dual curved driveway where there is a quadruple-door garage and a $90k Lexus with a bow sitting in the snow just for her

 

thats almost the perfect exhibition of  opulence, I has it.

Then he turns around to the people and says "Folks, This line is a shambles. Let's tuck it in."

I fucking lost it. He and I were the only ones who got the joke....

They are so far and few in between that I shall also use this thread to celebrate good commercials. Hulu's new promo with the Bear reference.

"Are you watching the Bear without me?"

I'll leave it at that but I LOL'd. 

Why the fuck do I keep seeing advertisements for ATM's law school?  And not even for a law degree, just some related shit to support the big money guys/girls.  As soon as I hear the music for that stupid thing I'm skipping/changing.

And then drive off in their C Class... Really?

I agree. Commercials should be more like this:

No way in hell she would have gotten me in any car acting that way -- it is so obvious she is begging for a dickin' right then and there. I'm throwing her over my shoulder, carrying her upstairs and tossing her on the bed. Once we got that out of the way we could go to dinner and I'd even let her drive.

Fuck that fatch running through the crowd like she owns the place recording some shitty ass footrace. I would have tripped that elephant in that puddle of mud and water and hoped her iphone gazillion (or whatever model they're on now) fell in with her.

There’s no way there’s a crowd that big for a janky 8 kid race. No track, and clearly no school sponsored competition. Like a 40 yd dash on grass? And how fast can the kid be running if his mom can keep up while running sideways?

It's pretty clear over and over that no one in advertising has ever attended any sort of footrace in their lives, nor have they ever actually run any distance theselves.  The one that currently pisses me off the most is the one with the girls who have apparently finished off an extremely long run and are near death until being revived by  Michelob Ultra.

This woman's skin is faaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrr too white  for her to have been engaged in any form of strenuous exercise.

They are about have some strenuous scissoring exercise.

Do people really want a beer after strenuous exercise? I mean, mowing the lawn, sure. But do people down beers after running a marathon?

First thing handed to me when I crossed the finish line for my marathon was a beer by event organizers. Best beer I've ever had in my life. This was Chicago so ymmv.

Hell yeah, that free Saint Arnold tasted great after I finished mine on Sunday.

Yeah, I had an amazing cold beer after running a marathon this weekend.
Except I skipped the marathon part and just had a fantastic cold beer.
It really was great. I recommend it. Drinking beer, I mean.

Oh man. The line thing hits home for me too. I think covid fucked everyone up. But being the last person in a line of 3 should not leave me 30 feet from the register. We don't need a world of space between each person. This happens a lot at gas stations.

The Mahomes State Farm commercials and pretty much any phone commercial can eat me. 

And the HEB spelling bee one sucks donkey.

This seems crazy, on the Whopper song. 
 

Burger King CEO Jose Cil reveals that he gave legendary film composer Hans Zimmer 13% control of the company as payment for their new ‘WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER’ jingle “It was worth every penny”

wtf?  13 percent of Burger King for one jingle.

I mean seriously, is 13% of Burger King really worth all that much?

According to google anywhere from 5-10 billion.  Idk has to be more to this then they just gave him 13 percent. 

Well I guess it'll be whopper and fries tomorrow for lunch.

That can't possibly be true. 

Edit - the 13% thing, not what Underdog is having for lunch tomorrow.

"The stans standard". 

If I ever go insane,  it'll be because of hearing that so many fucking times.

I feel like the Burger King commercials are a class-action lawsuit waiting to happen. We just need a sketchy medical expert, a few emotional trauma diagnoses and a few surly attorneys ready to hit that massive payday.

FTR, I didn't get my BK yesterday because we got dumped with 8" of snow and didn't want to get out in it.

Has Rodgers been dropped by State Farm? Seems like I never see him anymore.

He's not in the playoffs.
