    Agreed. Don't like the Socially Awkward Rob Lowe that much either, but it's tolerable.

    And I agree with albert on Shaq. Sure, he can be a bit over the top, but I like that he's a multi-millionaire who can still have fun and not take life seriously all the time.

    AT&T moron who asks cop if he puts pepper spray on his food because "I like it spicy but not AAAARGH!"

    STFU and DIAF.

    Is he really saying pepper spray? I can never understand that part.

    Yup, he's asking the cop if he uses his pepper spray for his food. I'm not an expert but I think those kinds of questions are justification for a thorough macing.

    You have no idea.

    Kind of a takeoff on the Sonic spots, discussed a couple pages ago, which started out with a reasonably normal straight man playing off the goofy geeky douchebag buddy, which quickly progressed (or degenerated) to two more or less equivalent dorky dimwit douchebags.

    Yeah, it seems those are becoming the new "husband is an idiot" as far as the go-to for ad campaigns.

    The Sonic guys are fucking each other. At some point SNL needs to take them in that direction.

    The FanDuel and DraftKings spots are weighing heavily on my nerves. The DraftKings ones play incessantly, are just plain stupis, and there's only like two different spots. During any live event, they must who each of those 4,000 times.

    15 minutes can save you 15 percent on your car insurance.

    Yeah, everyone knows this, so enough, already.

    Makes me want to pick up that little device and slam it into a brick wall.

    Oh, God. The "Jake from State Farm" ad in which wifey finds her husband on the phone at 3 a.m. Talking to Jake and commandeers the phone.

    "So, what are wearing, 'Jake from State Farm?'l

    "Uhh... kahkis."

    Wifey: "She sounds hideous!"

    Just once, I want husband to say "When's the last time you looked in a mirror, you hag?"
