Are "North Atlantic" lobsters so abundant that we can allow Golden Corral to cook their tails and sell them for $5?

The Trivago guy looks like he leaves behind a layer of sediment every time he showers.

Is that the guy who isn't wearing a belt? Thought he was a Canada only abomination.

His shirt is sooooooo unbuttoned despite being not really all that unbuttoned. Upsets me.

Creepy dude.

I would stay at any hotel that barred this guy. I mean, I have my wife and daughter to think about.

Guy has "prowler" written all over him.

Reminds me of the Alec Baldwin/Jerry Seinfeld discussion of the word "rapier" on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

"You think you're rapier than me?"

"My cellmate in Raway, he was the rapiest guy."

Linette Beaumont. The woman in the new Viagra tv ads. Not unattractive.

govmentchedda · Post by **govmentchedda** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 11:48 am

That whole line of adverts seems creepy to me too. The Trivago guy is certainly rapier.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 11:58 am

Is there any doubt at all she poisons his viagra and collects the insurance money?

No Ickey love in this thread?

My wife thinks that commercial is hilarious, and she had never heard of Ickey Woods, or the Ickey shuffle.

Speaking of commercials. Yesterday, I was getting a bite to eat from the cafeteria at my gym/health club. I absentmindedly sat down at a table next to the window by the swimming pool. A couple minutes later, a friend of mine comes up with a big grin and says, "Let me guess. Your cable is out, so you came down here to watch folks swim, right?"

Oh, great, dinner with creepy sancarlos tonight.

A kid who knocked on my door was this for Halloween. I told him he won.

Papa Johns has some cojones. It takes nerve to use the tag line of better ingredients; better pizza, when you are featuring a pizza topped with Fritos corn chips in the advertisement.

I'm sure a pizza topped with gummy bears is coming next.

And that was while he was awaiting brain surgery. Nuff said.

I think it was post. The first comment on his status mentioned that.

The recent spate of "Push It" commercials led me to an idea for a FMD discussion that I didn't have the time/focus to prepare yesterday. Maybe this upcoming week.

The woman in the Bank of America commercials certainly shops for mundane items with confidence.

I want to punch that AT&T girl right in her smug face every time I see one of those fucking commercials. Do they think she's just like Flo? She's not. She's a condescending, unfunny bitch.

Love the Joe Montana Heisman trophy.

And the Meathead Rob Lowe.

Punchable with my penis? Yes indeed.

Tag team match: Flo and Lily vs. the Wendy's girl and the woman from the Toyota commercials. Who wins?

Everyone.

Post by **Shirley** » Tue Jan 06, 2015 9:29 pm

I don't know about a fight, but ranking them on likability, I'd have to go:

Flo
Wendy
Toyota girl
Lily

There's a gap between 2 and 3 and a big gap before 4.

The doable scale might just be reversed (but Lily would have to shut the fuck up).

The Sybian · Post by **The Sybian** » Tue Jan 06, 2015 10:22 pm

Lily is annoying, and I always felt like she could be cute, but just isn't. I did a Google search, and she looks really cute in some pics that are probably airbrushed. She has done a tone of comedy shorts, including an interview series called Let's Talk about Something More Interesting. Kind of a Between Two Ferns, but with 2 clueless girls. Slight bonus for being Uzbeki.
.

And you guys make me sick. Talking about fuckable recurring commercial girls, and leaving out T-Mobile motorcycle turned sweet innocent sundress girl?

End of conversation.

Navy Federal Credit Union was the place you set up an emergency account for your direct deposit in basic training if you didn't have one set up prior to.

Now they have commercials that cater to like 4% of the population. Weird.

I like Putty in that National Car Rental commercial.

P.D.X. · Post by **P.D.X.** » Mon Jan 12, 2015 1:15 pm

I pretty much only watch sports online so I don't know how much regular airtime this Nissan ad gets:

http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7WNV/2015-nissan ... -migration" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

So many questions.

1) Who the hell ever sees a lone bird and instantly knows that it has lost its migratory flock? Can't a bird just go do bird things alone?

2) How did they catch the bird?

3) They're asking directions around what appears to be several counties (states?) and people are actually giving them directions. To a flock of birds.

4) Isn't a bird by it's own the most capable of finding it's flock? I mean, they can literally fly!

5) Couldn't they come up with a better excuse for a feel-good mash-up of rural Americana?

I think I may have put this in the confessions thread but I had a sex dream about Jan from the Toyota commercials, so I guess my rankings on likability/doability order would be

Toyota girl
Lily
Wendy
Flo

but the last 2 are so far up on my hating scale it's not even close.
