    The superstitious dude who slaps the popcorn out some other dude’s hand in whatever March Madness commercial it is is overdue an ass-whooping.

    And, frankly, so are all his meek friends who ought to be delivering said ass-whooping.

    There’s a Nissan ad on the free version of Spotify with a premise so flawed it makes me almost violently angry.

    The guy is apparently leading a band or orchestra of some sort and keeps counting them in by saying “A one, two, a one, two, thrill.”

    Questioned about this, he sheepishly says he cannot help himself because he finds the two cars he bought for his fleet at the “store” (what happened to the band?) so thrilling.

    In what universe is a business owner buying fleet vehicles based on how “thrilling” they are? The very last thing I want is my employees tempted to take a thrilling ride.

    And to really drive home the fuck you point, it often plays back to back. I’m going to pull a muscle from reaching so fast to mute my phone speaker.
