Oh come on, you know you want to find out about what's going to happen between Michael and Sarah.

I dont even know what its a commercial for, i mute or change the channel when i see it start.
Woman comes home, some scruffy **** is wearing headphones at a keyboard and the most horrendous song starts and then she starts dancing like Elaine from Seinfeld.

I'm just saying that if I saw the Spence Diamonds crew crossing the street coming back from lunch....the urge to hit the gas? It might be insurmountable.

That particular Spence one is a real head scratcher because they don't even advertise anything. Like if you weren't from Calgary and just turned it on you'd have no idea what they were even selling, it's a random African geography lesson with some old Scottish lady and two dorky-sounding dudes, then they start talking about Michael and Sarah and it's over. And it's been runninf for weeks.

That is a very good point. Its like they're trolling us.

Which...if their jewelry is as fairly priced as they claim, they shouldnt be able to afford to do.

Is this Inception or The Matrix?

Radio stations know people switch stations when an annoying ad comes on don’t they? Do other advertisers have to pay extra to air before a Spence Diamonds ad? The stations probably all collude with each other to play Spence ads, so other advertisers have no choice but to pay a pre-Spence admin fee, less they suffer from the post-Spence decline in listeners.

“Oh crap! Spence ad!! Change the channel!!!” Still gets the word out. Sucks for the station, and hopefully they charge more for the ad spot, but there’s no way Spence creates those thinking they’re good.

Yeah, definitely. But I know I am changing the station until I get bored of whatever I changed it to, so it’s not like I change it for a bit and go back when I think the ad is over. I can’t imagine I am the only one that does it.

I still don't get the point of having that guy's high pitch scream like his balls got stepped on at the end of the commercial....


Edit: I think I know why - that's foreshadowing the pain of marriage. Deep stuff by the advertiser...

I dont understand why they dragged some Scottish Granny into it.

I mean, there are ways to go but that is certainly a helluva choice.

It is turning into an SNL skit, confusing/unfunny/annoying

Where is Sarah Michael? Where is Sarah?

Will we need a shovel to find Sarah?
