Re: Commercials
Marfa, Texas
For some reason, probably because I was bored while riding a stationary bike and watching commercials, the “Marfa, Texas” line intrigued me. I figured maybe Kohler was based there? Nope. It’s a tiny little town of less than 2,000. But it is known as a “major center for minimalist art”. So was that ad for a high-concept, minimalist profile toilet filmed in Marfa in the hopes that some super rich person who appreciates minimalist art would see it and say “hells yeah”?

Re: Commercials
Doesn't Marfa have a stand alone Gucci store too? Like middle of nowhere type artists colony with a random luxury store.

Apparently just an art installation.

They shouldn't play TopDogLaw commercials at 6 in the morning.

Those radio spots are outstanding. Saul Goodman couldn't have done better.

Re: Commercials
And that's just a couple of them. Another one (that I can't find) said some shit like "YOU GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. YOUR LEG WAS AMPUTATED. AND NOW TOP DOG GOT YOU YOUR MONEY." or some wild shit like that.

Re: Commercials
Those commercials bring back a memory. My parents, my father especially, regularly watches afternoon syndicated crap tv shows. Where they live, at that time of day, most commercials seem to be for either pharmaceutical drugs, or personal injury lawyers. My father spends a lot of time mocking those adverts. My brother, coincidentally, is a personal injury lawyer. We were all together there in early January, and my brother started taking my father’s jabs personally, and ended up storming off from their home with a hail of harsh words. As the designated family peacemaker, it took me a few weeks to get everybody copacetic, again.

Re: Commercials
Those PI lawyers do a valuable service, because they can do those kinds of cases efficiently enough that people with claims less than $200K can find representation.sancarlos wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 2:53 pm Those commercials bring back a memory.

And they generally don't waste too much time on loser cases, because it's not worth it to them.

Re: Commercials
Because of where I live I get both the Philly PI lawyers and the Baltimore PI lawyers:
“If you have a pheone, you have a lawyer.”

AT WALMART? The family fell in love with it during the trip last month to the point we all stayed in the car at one point to finish it even though we'd already parked.
Re: Commercials
If any of you can produce stuff like that you need to call me. Outstanding. Heard that on the airwaves. J Sanders about as great. Someone post that guy. Anyway I am trying and failing to pull that off on the socials. Truly outstanding. The schtick is small cases cause these fucks make nonsense about big cases. Paper bags of money. Big check. Small dick jokes I want your small cases. Call me.

Re: Commercials
Pond Lehocky, and I think we just had a discussion about them. I recently got a call from an internal recruiter from a law firm with billboards all over NJ. Seemed like a decent job and paid well, I just can't work for a firm with billboards. Maybe I'm being snobby about it, but it just leaves such a bad impression on me. At least their billboards are just the founding partner's name and not cheesy personal injury slogans.

"X Gon' Give it to Ya" on an Acura ad. Maybe that should go to the Feeling Old thread.

I know it shouldn't, but the "Lets go SportsBar" from the currently running BW3 makes me chuckle every time.

Re: Commercials
I think I like the commercial, but I've already seen it so many times I now hate it too.
Totally Kafkaesque
Re: Commercials
lol, I really hate that one. Not trying to be a jerk—it’s just not for me, like pretty much every BWW commercial.
What I do like is That’s What March is For. Mostly because of Nantz. How does he nail it in every commercial he’s in?

Re: Commercials
BWWW. That's why BW3. The third is for Weck. Not sure what that is. Haven't seen the commercial but the food and atmosphere sucks. Carry on.

Re: Commercials
Weck is the shortened form of Kummelweck roll. There is a Buffalo dish called beef on a weck, which is a roastbeef sandwich with au jus and horseradish on a kemmelweck roll. It's pretty damned good, and not sure why it hasn't spread. The roll has kosher salt and caraway seeds (think rye bread seeds).
