Calamity Jane November 15, 2015 Share November 15, 2015 I don't find it unreasonable. I have five cats, but the same one always gets used for those websites where you're required to pick from a(n always terrible) set list of security questions. He's The Favorite (but don't tell the other four). For some reason, there were always kids, even 7th graders although 4th grade was more common, who would ask if they were my favorite. I'd always whisper loudly, "Yes, but don't tell the others." Then it would start going around the room, and more would come and ask. One way to relieve the tedium of prepositional phrases day. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2715-favorite-commercials/page/33/#findComment-1713325
friendperidot November 16, 2015 Share November 16, 2015 (edited) spaceghostess, I remember the I love NY ads, I lived in WDC at the time. But my favorite were the ads for Florida, showing people shoveling, pushing cars out of snow plow covered parking place, little kid falling in snow, "I need it bad". And of current ads, I think it's for Cheerios, with dad and daughter bantering over who will win their golf match. Miss that with my father so much. To me, if you have a parent you can banter with, do it, every chance you get, it's a sign of love.

I love this one, too (although I am pretty sure it's for Raisin Bran). I like way they banter (it is similar to how my dad relates to us), but I also like that the topic of the banter is that they are relatively evenly matched at a sport of some sort. Too often, dads bond with sons over physical activities in commercials, but they don't bond with their daughters in the same manner even though real life is full of dads and daughters who love sports together. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2715-favorite-commercials/page/33/#findComment-1716769
