    Clearly. The dude would pull every yogi pants/Yeti chugging mommy in Austin if she wasn’t DTF every time he walks in the door. He’s far more attractive than she is.

    Wells Fargo. An ad about a grace period for overdraft fees.

    They show a Black female as the customer with a pending overdraft fee.

    Easy there, Wells Fargo. This is one time where it’s totally time to show a white dude.

    Culterelle has a woman saying she gets a ton of contradictory advice about her digestive issues. The first guy they show giving advice is a doctor. I think you can ignore the friend who gives you the opposite advice from a doctor or a TV chef spouting nonsense. The guy is a doctor. But here we are as a society.

    Wes Anderson should sue FedEx for making a shitty 30-second version of Moonrise Kingdom.

    The Brie Larson Nissan ads get on my last nerve. Look! All of the quick edits, costume changes, and strategic zoom-ins to make driving a Nissan glamorous!

    First, Larson hasn't remotely earned that level of star-turn treatment. Really, no one has earned that level of over-the-top aggrandizement.

    Second, I owned a Nissan. Extremely dependable, but about as glamorous as, well, me.

    Just saw a spot with Mike Trout talking about refusing to accept a second-place trophy as a kid and how that made him what he is today. What he is of course is a guy on a team that hasn’t finished in single digits in the “games back” column since 2015.

    The Iverson / Curry / Hart commercial about cash back is absolutely annoying. Not just annoying. . . absolutely annoying.

    Anything with Brian Cox playing off his character on Succession. It's a dumb premise.

    Not that Little Caesar’s ever had great pizza, but its new Crispy Chicken variety reaches a new low (judging from the commercial).

    A cheese pizza with what looks like the dregs of a Costco frozen chicken nuggets bag dumped on it . Then some brightly colored sauce on top in a spiral pattern.

    No thanks.

    The Romo Skechers commercial.
    “Let’s go out”
    “Nah…let’s stay in”
    “Wait……let’s go someplace fancy”
    There’s one excerpt of him helicoptering one of those shoes at her and telling her to make up her mind.

    Yeah, since he joined the Angels he hasn't had to worry about that again.

    You thought Fox's commercials for the winter World Cup were bad? The one for the Women's World Cup is much worse.
