The "Just Ok is not OK" campaign cracks me up. AT&T:
The thing that gets me about these ads is that for literal years the crux of their marketing (and T-Mobile, and Sprint, etc) has been to note that they offer 99% of the network coverage and/or reliability of Verizon.
Which is sort of the definition of being just OK.

Verizon original:

Truth:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPHtXSJZfkk
(article about it: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/201 ... -wildfire/ )
In a statement to Ars three hours after this article was published, Verizon acknowledged that it shouldn't have continued throttling the fire department's data service after the department asked Verizon to lift the throttling restrictions.
"Regardless of the plan emergency responders choose, we have a practice to remove data speed restrictions when contacted in emergency situations," Verizon's statement said. "We have done that many times, including for emergency personnel responding to these tragic fires. In this situation, we should have lifted the speed restriction when our customer reached out to us. This was a customer support mistake. We are reviewing the situation and will fix any issues going forward."

Was going to mention this.
Their gimmick is getting long in the tooth, but the Employee Discount/Pink Slip video was good.

The Alexa commercial where the girl burns the duck she was cooking for date night. So she calls her dad, and he walks her through a quick pasta recipe.
It's not said, but the dish he's teaching her is basically spaghetti alla puttanesca . Which translates as spaghetti "in the style of the whore".
Have fun, kiddo!

That Miller Lite commercial making fun of the Dilly Dilly Bud Light ad campaign is awesome.

Didn't they show a Christmas tree in the house at the beginning of the commercial?

I'm 51 and that looks pretty close to my wrapping skill level.

I've been using "it's ok, we'll figure it out" with our new temp for the stuff that was supposed to be transitioned to me but never made it.
I don't think he has picked up on the reference.
