    On the opposite end of the spectrum, this ad from Amazon was amazingly well done.

    The guy in the radio spots has some of the most annoying voice inflection I've ever heard.

    That is a great commercial. I had to make sure I paid attention the second time it came around.

    Saban's Aflac commercial.

    The Popeyes ad with the old dude trying it for the first time is OK and I can tune out the really annoying fake laugh. But why did Popeyes have to use a video of gramps chewing with his mouth open?

    I love Joe Namath but I can't wait for the Medicare signup period to end.

    Where do I start...

    GEICO with the clogging family. They look Amish. Why the F do they have a washer and dryer? Why do they live in an apartment?

    Rocket. Why does that redhead mom hate her children so much that they’re bothering her and she feels the need to grab them at the end?

    Heineken. Who is that rich F dad, tooling around in his sports car with his son?

    USAA. That Martin guy looks like an absolute pick to have as a neighbor. “That’s how you do things right.”

    Lily. Still hot.

    That's a Formula One driving father and son duo. The old man is Keke Rosberg (I had to look up the name). Don't they mention it's a racing son following in his father's footsteps in the beginning?

    Broadway Joe sounds stoned at the end. And that’s I like it.

    I would guess these air constantly when I’m betting MLS games. They only have 3 or 4 major sponsors but they’re definitely targeting rich assholes.

    I love these Geico ads, except the clogging one. The aunts is my favorite. I miss the Ratt problem one.
