These pizzas are the SAME SIZE, so why are they DIFFERENT PRICES!???
It's the same pizza from the same restaurant, and you say that. You want to make a point about the price difference FOR THE SAME FOOD, why are you measuring the same dish from the same place to make that point? Did you forget what you were even doing when you came up with the commercial?

Me new hatred is short reels online that have ads on them. It is a fn short reel and you want me to watch a 15 second ad to watch a 30 second reel? Congrats, I have now boycotted your product for life.

That new “just try it” or whatever the #### they’re saying.
Did these losers just watch the cool whip episode of mad men and think stealing ideas from Don Draper was hilarious or something?

Spence Diamonds is like the gold standard for annoying ads but this latest series is almost offensive. "What better way to show your wife you love her twice as much as when you got married, then by buying her a diamond twice as big as that one! All for the amazing low price of $6999" -- Talk about a cynical and tone-deaf ad. Most people out here pissed about grocery prices and you're trying to hawk $7000 rings to basic people on radio ads.

No kidding. I hear some of their ads, and I think "If I showed up with a diamond ring that cost that much, my wife would kill me for wasting that much money."

Good one. 
That ad is dumb but I know someone in the ad business who says their ads are effective. The purpose of advertising is to generate business, and those do.

I always turn the radio to a different station or turn it off when they come on. I don't need any more help with road rage.

When I was buying my wife's engagement ring many years ago, I made it a point to specifically not go there for any reason, out of principal for retaliation to their stupid ads.

That stupid "Get down Get down" add from the Brick where they scream like a banshee at the end. And do we need to see it 50 freaking times in one news broadcast??

Lately I just can't stand commercials, period. Am I just getting cranky in my old age, or are there more of them than ever before? It feels to me that the persuasive message is CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME, with a heaping side of Marketing Psychology. All the commercials I see feel like roomful of eggheads got together to try to sell me on an "experience" or an "image" or a "tribe". It's too much. I seriously want to punch anyone dunking an Oreo cookie these days. About the only one I CAN stand these day is Amy Schumer schilling tampons. That, is a mighty sad commentary on our collective culture.

One of my favorite CBC shows is Under the Influence. The psychology around advertising and marketing is fascinating to me.
