I have to admit that I love the “becoming your parents” progressive commercials. They all remind me of my dad.

Most commercials these days don’t advertise to people like me. So, I don’t feel compelled to buy their stuff anymore since they aren’t focused on me as a potential customer. That other 12% must be spending like crazy though.
Most advertising dollars are spent as leverage over the media/provider.

If Yount say what they want you to say on your normal programming, they will pull their advertisements.

Ratings are one thing, revenue is another. Just look at CNN.

I also gave up on Gillette razors after the trans commercials



I haven’t bought a Gillette product since their toxic masculinity tirade several years back. Don’t buy shite from people who hate you.

Any commercial that is too long or played too much. YouTube commercials are 100% counterproductive bc it makes me instantly hate the company.

It’s a snapshot of a Gatorade Fit commercial and it’s repulsive.

Years ago, doctors, lawyers and big pharma were not allowed to advertise on the TV.

Ahh gotcha. You made it sound like there were tons of them so a list would have been easy to follow.

So you've never bought flex tape or flex seal?

I dont know any current commercials. The old Quiznos one with the singing rats was horrible.

Exwife plops the kids in front of the idiot box. They come back from her place saying ‘gotta have a wawa’. Though I myself have never seen it, I hate that one

Hate those big Mac extra value meal spots
Also hate those Taco Bell “extreme value” spots. The VX over “talent “ was irritating as hell.
