The song on the Baton Rouge Clinic commercial, and what makes it worse is that it is about 5 mins long.

Zero. There is no music that makes me fall down, and I doubt that is so for any other poster.

Do you realize that is what you asked when you used the word "literally"?

I actually called em in late 90s and swore I'd never look at their lot due to their abomination of an ad campaign.

Dictionaries have added another definition to the word literally

used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible

100+ years ago I could beat my wife with a mop handle and it was defined as a lawful act. That doesn't make it right now does it?

Yes, as more and more idiots misuse words the dictionaries eventually change the definitions. They are motivated to do this because it makes dictionaries more relevant.

I think it’s a Bounty commercial that plays on the radio using this song “Sauce”

I change the station as soon as I hear it
How this is considered music I’ll never understand

This is not the law, it’s how languages work. English 800 years ago was very different in how it was spoken and what the words meant/were used. Languages evolve as people speak differently and use words differently. It’s how almost all languages change.

You can argue it’s dumb but that poster is technically right. Which is what the other guy was trying to argue he wasn’t doing.

I'm fine with some changes, because language does evolve and we use words differently over the years.

But this one, no. That definition is literally the opposite of the accepted meaning of the word.

I turn the radio station every time I hear that evil KKKars for KKKids ad. Anyone who donates a car to them is an accessory in this evil torture. Other advertisers should sue, because I’m sure I’m not the only one who immediately switches the dial, so the ads following have a smaller audience.

I agree with the Sarah McLoughlin song.

Then I'd say what ever song ESPN chooses that year for their CFB season. Especially like, Fallout Boy - Champion.

Just kill me..
