Superbowl commercials

D and I don't watch TV. In fact, we don't have cable or even an antenna (we do watch DVDs; but that's about it). But for the superbowl, I always make sure to track down the commercials online afterwards and watch them.

Here are our thoughts on the commercials (in the order we saw them):

#1: (Doritos-Live the Flavor) J: Just plain stupid. D: Yes.

#2: (wedding reception-Budweiser) J: At least vaguely amusing. D: Perhaps the best commercial in the superbowl for perhaps one of the worst beers on earth.

#3: (Budweiser ESL class) J: Beyond offensive. D: Perhaps one of the most offensive things I've ever seen in my life.

#4: (snickers) D: offensive homophobic stupid obnoxious. J: ditto.

#5: (moon office) J: There's gravity on the moon. Idiots. D: A stupid pointless waste of my time.

#6: (Rock paper scissors-Budweiser) J: sorta funny. D: another reasonably amusing commercial about an unbelievably shitty beer.

#7: (Fist bump/slap-Budweiser) D: I wish the actors would slap the creators of that commercial. J: was that supposed to be funny?

#8: (Coca-Cola grand theft auto knock off) D: I wonder if they paid the creators of grand theft auto for the dilution. Boy that sucked. J: If coca-cola would go out of business that would make me happy.

#9: (Pride-the movie) D: I sure hope the movie is better than that shitty ass commercial J: Could we please have some movies showing people of color overcoming prejudice that DOESN'T involve sports.

#10: (Spot dog-Budweiser) D: A very healthy well fed street dog. Another stupid fucking commercial for another shitty fucking product. J: Cute dog. Poor thing can't consent to being exploited for Budweiser.

#11: career builder-training session: D: I don't know, but all those people deserve to die. J: i give it 3rd for originality. D responds that all those people deserve
to die.


#35: Van Huesen: D: what the fuck was that offensive nonsense? I'll never buy a piece of van heusen clothing again. J: secretaries. coffee. sex. bullshit.

#36: (Honda CRV-CRAVE) J: It looks like a minivan. D: What's the gas mileage?

#37: (Not What it Seems) Didn't load. Fuck it.

#38: (Honda-fuel efficient) J: Gee, your trucks and SUVs too? BS D: the most boring Indian? I hope Anthony Hopkins sues them.

#39: (NFL goodbye ad) D: You can tell that lame piece of shit was created by an amateur in a stadium contest. What a fucking crock, that sucked. J: Sports
are stupid.

#40: (Snapple Green Tea) D: Offensive foolishness from the company Rush Limbaugh endorses. J: I didn't know that. Snapple sucks. Boring commercial.

#41: (See Saw-Tundra) J: OK, that was fake. D: That was just plain stupid. Unfortunately, they might know their audience.

#42: (Ramp-Tundra) J; Stupid. Beyond stupid. D: Fucking stupid.

#43: (Hannibal Rising) D: I hope the movie is better than the commercial. J: Jason anyone?

#44: (Sierra Mist-Karate) D: Are you being paid to create that shit? J: Eh.

#45: (chevy- ain't we got love) J: Huh? Double huh? I don't get it. D: Version 0? More like version -84.

#46: (Sierra Mist-comb over) J: OK, that at least made me laugh a bit. D: More sierra mist stupidity.

#47: (Chevy HHR Car Wash) D: offensive foolishness. J: Offensive stupidity.

#48: (Flomax) J: Looks like a Saturday Night Live commercial making fun of the big pharma commercials. D: Could Flomax make a better commercial?

#49: (Men of the year) J: Who cares? If the players donated their ridiculous salaries to a charity, that might mean something. D: In some ways, it's oddly reassuring, that the NFL can't hire advertising people who are any more intelligent than the rest of the mother fucking buffoons who created all the rest of this goddamn nonsense.

#13: go daddy: D: oh this is gonna suck; YUP, IT COMPLETELY sucked. J: offensive

We did watch all the commercials (in the order they were in on YouTube, hence the numbers), but I forgot to write down what all the commercials were. So you will find comments below, without any note as to which commercial they refer to.

#12: J: that is beyond terrible. they took up superbowl commercial time for that???? D: they deserve to die even more than number 11

#14: terrible. this is supposed to make people care about heart disease? We're in serious trouble. D: is that supposed to not suck somehow? Pharmaceutical industry pap.

#15: huh? D: what the fuck was that a commercial for?

#16: someone gets off on using CGI. D: oh, this is going to make my brain hurt.. and post comm: yup, it made my brain hurt

#17: J: just plain stupid; D: just barely entertaining, but amazingly banal

#18: cute, but only because i like great apes. otherwise, i find exploiting them appalling. D: stupid. anthropomorhpic. stupid.

#19: D: should we know who that douchebag is? should this make us want to do business with this idiotic company? J: dumb. d-u-m. dumb.

#20: J: I don't believe in paying for broadband. Except at home. D: Bob Dole says anyone who would do business with you has built in wireless.

#21: D: more anthropomorphic idiocy. Why are you wasting my fucking brain cells on this? J: as a note, that is how GM treats their workers. Poor robot.

#22: D: will the anthropomorphic idiocy never end. I think I'm going to die. Please, please make it stop. J: No comment.

#23: J: who is robert goulet? and why do i care? D: that sucked. really, really bad. next.

#24 J: is that deliberately making fun of overweight people or are the makers just complete idiots? D: More offensive pap. But at least it didn't glorify skinny
women.

#25: D: anthropomorphic-palooza. Complete fucking nonsense. The creators should be stretched on the rack over hot coals. J: Stupid.

#26: D: Is that supposed to be funny? J: Who's Kevin garnet? Am I that out of touch with anything related to pop culture...or sports...or anything shallow and
stupid. tHank goodness.

#27: D: I hope they sustained brain injuries filming that commercial. J; #4, again for originality.

#28: D: that was stupid. J: vaguely amusing. although we are running out of synonyms for stupid, idiotic, dumb.

#29: D: since we're running out of synonyms, that was REALLY FUCKING stupid. J: huh?

#30: J: D: dum. dum. dum. dum. dum. oh. and i hope they get sued.

#31: D: lame and stupid, although i appreciated the hints at vulgarity. J: again

#32: D: people get paid to create this shit? J: I did laugh at the T. rex with a big head and little arms.

#33: J: I don't get it. Was I supposed to get it? Was that supposed to make sense to anyone? D: I'm glad we don't have cable. I spend too much time in hotel rooms. That still completely fucking sucked ass.

#34: D: That was very, very not good. J: that was stupid on more levels than i can count.
