I'm with you, Doc. Punch these guys regardless of their orientation - punch them due to the attitude.

Every time I see it I wince.
I think that's entirely it. This ain't no fuddy duddy investor—this guy is young and cutting-edge analog, man! Invest with RBC and you, too, will be fat with more avocado toast than even you can photograph.Sparky wrote: ↑17 Jan 2023, 9:07pmSacrilege, probably directed by a millennial, has no idea what a LP is but knew it would be a hipster thing to show in the commerical.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jan 2023, 7:34pmI can't find the ad online, but it's for RBC.

Don't hate them entirely for their hipster attitude - save some room for hating them because they're stupid.
I don't think it helps that they have completely removed the element of surprise by releasing them all early.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑11 Feb 2023, 9:20amIs the whole Super Bowl commercials thing past tense now? It seems like something that the media is obliged to write about, because it used to be a thing and the media loves to cover things that are supposed to obsess us, but does anybody really care about Super Bowl ads now? It seems a ritual that exists because it exists, but the idea of finding commercials clever seems very archaic to me, especially with cord-cutting and the like.

It used to be something different - hanging around the office talk ("Did you see the Budweiser ad with the frogs?"). It got old really quick; after all, they're still commercials.
