TV ads that get you to throw a brick at your TV.
March 19, 2021 at 5:48 pm
I also want to kick Mike Lindell in his pills for his annoying "I didn't invent the pillow, but I like to annoy people every fucking 5 seconds and act like I did"
And Liberty Insurance, has that fucking annoying Emu ad.
But long before either there was this.

One with the tag line, ‘Fibre. It’s how we internet now.’ Pisses me off when nouns get used as verbs.

I am not against the private sector. But damn folks, please do not beat me over the head every 2 seconds with annoying repetitive ads.
It makes me want to throat punch you, not buy your product.
It makes me feel like this.

Even Progressive has had ads I like, like the following. But there is such a thing as overplaying it. I love the following ad, but like food, I don't want to eat it every day.
You don't eat food every day? Are you part Breatharian? Or do you just subsist on beer on the days you forego food?

Food is something we all eat every day, but TV ads are not something we need to see every nanosecond.
