Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Steve’s naked singing milk-drinking guy made me think of this milk commercial, and some thoughts I had about it. I’m sure what’s happening there is there is a waterfall of milk and maybe a cow off to the side mooing. But that is not the image that the sound conjured up for me, who couldn’t …

They keep running this ad talking about the convenience of ordering groceries from them online. Cool. I’ll stick with the Central Fresh Market because I like them more and because they actually deliver to my area, but whatever. Anyway, at the end, it mentions their “free grocery pick-up.” Well…yeah. I should hope so. Who out …
I’m noticing a theme with TV commercials that is really starting to bug me. They don’t tell you what they’re for anymore! I have talked about this before when I cursed Sobeys to the ends of the earth, but it’s getting worse, and I have assembled a flock of them to prove my point. I …

I saw a commercial and I want to know if I’m the weird one here. It was for Niagara Falls tourism, and it showed this guy talking about how he hasn’t seen his grandma in a while, so now he’s going to make time for her and take her to Niagara Falls “because Grandma, you …
The ad Rogers is running for the NFL Sunday Ticket package this year is driving me nuts. Most of it is fine, but there’s one line where it says “get up to 200 regular season games every Sunday afternoon.” Um…no. You will not get that. It would be impossible for you to get that. There …

No idea why I’ve never noticed them before, but this year I couldn’t help but take note of the Klomps Home & Garden commercials during our local news. I’m not much of a gardener so I’m sure that’s part of it, but I do tend to pick up on ad jingles and such fairly quickly …
It’s close to the beginning of the month, which got me thinking about something. Whenever I see the commercial for Bravecto, the dog flea and tick preventative, I feel like I’m living in opposite land. First, I’ll show you the commercial. So the commercial says since you only have to give your dog Bravecto once …
When Rogers Ignite changed their slogan to…this, we couldn’t figure out what it was saying. Was it we give Mike a mop? We can like Mark? We can go to Mars? We can make a month? We can make a monk? Guaca macca mole? We can make a march? We eventually settled on “We can …
I’m starting to wonder if I’m losing the part of me that responds to the warm fuzzies that some commercials try to generate. Take this YOP ad for example. Granted, the version I keep seeing just starts with the group of four young people saying “If you want to build a better world, …” and …
I know I have written before about a kid picking on her virtual assistant, but I’ve seen another version of this, and this one seems even worse, in a strange way. Here’s the ad in question…almost. Apparently this ad was made for the Super Bowl, and we got a slightly abbreviated one. In ours, she …
