Why does Shults have those commercials ? They can’t possibly get good feedback on them
Well, people remember the name of their dealership, I guess. Unlike the 90-twenteeeeeeeeee guys (RIP) who gave their phone number out but all people remembered is their last four digits, not the first three or the dealer's name.

Unfortunately they have ensured that I will never purchase a car there.
Great. People remember your name. Too bad they **** hate your guts, which is not exactly optimal when trying to shill yer product.

F every company and network that ran commercials for ‘winter events’ (Mercedes and Land Rover) and Xmas (Ace Hardware) that ran today. Way too f’ing early. And that includes the network I work for too.

Before you know it, it will be time to see the Lexus commercials with the big red ribbon on top. Because buying our wives a Lexus as a Christmas gift resonates with all of us.

Has anyone heard the bizarre spot Starkey has been doing for some sort of toothbrush? "We refer to brushing your teeth as 'brushing your corns' in my house! 'Go brush your corns', we say!" WTF

Such a bizarre dude.
Your corns? I figured it might have been an old expression, so I googled '"brush your corns" teeth', and had exactly zero results come back for brushing teeth.

But comparing teeth to corn? they might want to line up a visit to a dentist.

and that's fine. Fangs are generally associated with teeth.

Corns? That's just weird.

Philly-area 5AFers will agree at how abominable Gary Barbera commercials are.

They're so awful that they merit a mention on a board where only 3 or 4 people can complain about them. Because some causes are so important that no one should be left behind.

YES. I completely forgot all about him! I've been fortunate not to have seen him in awhile.

I don't like the Horizon Services commercials, either, because the accent makes my skin crawl.

Jimmy Krenn doing yinzer accent radio spots for some law firm is some of the most cringeworthy stuff I've heard.

Subway doing bottle flip commercials. In 2018. What's next, some clips with the Harlem Shake or the Mannequin Challenge?

Maybe an ad with some Chuck Norris jokes? Oh wait, that's Toyota.

The first kid in those bottle flip ads has zero amount of muscle control in the top half of his face. He looks like he just left the oral surgeon after having his upper wisdom teeth cut out.

The selfie taking zombies can die any day now - as well as all of the car commercials that imply gifting vehicles for the holidays.

Nothing says happy holidays like making a major financial decision without including your partner!

This is what I'm saying.

I especially like the one where the wife buys 2 watches, one for each of them, and does the "guess what I got us?" routine.

The husband does the "guess what I got US?" too - except it's two pickup trucks. Come on, man.

How else are you supposed to show someone you love them if you don't go into debt?

The Mercedes SUV commercial especially annoys me.

Something always bothered me about the kid in that commercial. I couldn't tell if it was the kid holding his dumb expression for too long or what it was. But you might have nailed it.

I thought somebody actually paid Pittsburgh Dad to do voiceover work.
