Prairie Fire November 27, 2015 Share November 27, 2015 Awww! The bear almost made me cry. That's a lovely ad. But the cat made me laugh. ;-) That cat ad is the "holiday ad" equivalent of some college kid attempting a 10-page paper an hour before it's due. The little tag at the end says "Merry Christmas", but it really ought to say "F U, America". But yeah, it's official, Ballymena wins Christmas. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/12/#findComment-1752310

emma675 November 27, 2015 Share November 27, 2015 I don't understand how you can equate people going out to buy Christmas gifts for OTHER PEOPLE to buying a GMC for YOURSELF. They aren't the same thing! YES! Thank you! I about stroke out whenever I see one of those commercials. Buying yourself a car is not the same thing as going nuts at a Black Friday sale to buy other people gifts. You can't even compare the two. And those GMC owners are so freaking smug in those commercials. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/12/#findComment-1752910

BooksRule November 28, 2015 Share November 28, 2015 He doesn’t even try any of what’s in front of him, instead immediately jumping to, “I’ll just stick to the ham.” I hate tofu, so I feel him on giving that a pass, but there seem to be plenty of vegetables to choose from. Yeah, he’ll feel like he’s eating a bunch of side dishes with no main course, but he can eat. Does he normally sit there and just eat ham? This last line made me laugh. It also reminded me of an episode of 'Everybody loves Raymond' where Marie is getting brunch ready for the family (maybe for Easter?). Frank: 'Are we having ham?' Marie: 'Yes.' Frank: 'Excellent. I shall go and put on my ham pants.' I'm just glad I didn't see this commercial this Thanksgiving.

On the other hand, if someone in my family lied about having died, I would not even be able to express the level of betrayal I would feel. The emotional ramifications of thinking my dad had died, and explaining it to my kids to prepare them, are huge and should not be manipulated like that. I also wonder who was in on the ruse. I mean, who notified the kids that their dad had died? What was the alleged cause of death? Are we supposed to assume that the Lazarus-dude's kids think they are coming to plan a funeral, or did his co-conspirator use that as the reason the kids were coming to the house? What's going to happen when he really does die and this same group of people are having to make arrangements ("No, boss, I swear that he really did die this time!")?

ennui December 9, 2015 Share December 9, 2015 Anyone who gives me a car for Christmas had better paid in full for it, and be paying the insurance and the yearly plates on it forever. Otherwise, take it back. I've never understood the car Christmas present thing at all. Don't people wait until they need a car to get it, whenever in the year that happens? Don't people heavily research safety and needs and prices and extras when deciding what car to get? Don't people spend time working out the financing and payment structures? And would you really want to take on a new monthly payment during the month you will most likely be spending more than usual? I like the Audi commercial with a new Lexus in the driveway with a red bow, and the woman looks at the Audi driving by and sighs -- her SO looks dismayed, as well he should. I have never researched any car purchase. Do people really do that? I heard a story about a man who bought a new Corvette (well over $100,000). A couple of weeks later, the dealership had an orange Corvette, and the guy liked it better, so he traded. I'll bet that was a costly trade! Some people buy on emotion. And pay cash. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/12/#findComment-1788512
