Asche Schow has a thread on commercials she hates. this is one of them:

I knew a woman like that once. Doesn’t everyone?

Image result for great ad headlines

Don’t be that woman. Or that guy.

As a general rule, one should never, never, ever darken the doorstep of a Jared store.

"He went to Jared."

I’m getting very sick of the GMC truck commercial, in which the wife presents the husband with one of a pair of smart watches, one red and the other black. “One for you and one for me.”

Then he takes her outside to show her his early Christmas gift—two GMC trucks, one red and the other black.

“One for you and one for me.”

To his dismay, the wife goes for the black one, and the beta male suddenly decides. “I like red.”

I’m getting very sick of ALL the Christmas commercials they've been carpet bombing us with since Labor Day.
Enough already!

Keep it simple. Honor Jesus, not the mercantile flim-flam built around a fat man in a red suit.

Thankful there is only 23 days left of this crap.

I remember the good ol days of Midnight Mass followed by breakfast and family get together. Then we opened our one present.

Nothing like dropping over a hundred grand on supposedly one gift. Those car commercials, all of them, are stupid.

23 days? My house is ready.

I love my pole. Very high strength-to-weight ratio.

There are plenty of TV ads that attempt to ridicule males or place anything deemed traditional as something akin to a dinosaur. Many ad agencies are female- oriented but more so liberal female. I read an article about ten years ago in which this was discussed and on of the womyn-in-power said ads are based on her perceptions and experiences. The future of America if they ever get full control.

Yes, noticed they started shoving lib diversity down our throats Oct. 1 if not earlier. Can’t have Halloween or Thanksgiving anymore. Enough with all the commercialism. No one needs more junk, clutter and major debt.

“Then we opened our one present”

I could always look forward to underwear and sock cuz I was a growing boy.

We got oranges and a bag of nuts to crack.
