Sun-Bun December 24, 2014 Share December 24, 2014 Hmm, I saw that more as the girl being appalled that their self-declared favorite aunt doesn't know her nephew is allergic and gets him something that would either make him sick or kill him. That gift was more about Julia trying to score cool points than any effort to please the kiddos. She's trying way too hard. They would have been perfectly happy with hats or scarves. That said, the girl was wrong to repeat what her Mom said, but the Mom was more wrong for having said it to her kid in the first place. Mom was also wrong to allow her kids to treat their family so disrespectfully and to have such hideous manners. Plenty of extended family members gave me some pretty ridiculous gifts as a kid too, but I sure as Hell didn't make them feel like crap about it, but treated them courteously and thanked them for the effort. That's what I loathe about commercials these days---more and more retailers making viewers think it's totally fine for kids talk to adults so condecendingly and with such an appalling lack of manners. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2903-strudel-boy-and-cawowine-irritating-kids-in-commercials/page/6/#findComment-675122

topanga June 6, 2015 Share June 6, 2015 the Strudel Boy (for Pillsbury's Toaster Strudel) He has one of the worst faux-German accents to hit the small screen in years -- when he breaks into that "Toaster Strudel, Ja?" I'm tempted to put a brick through the TV. Also irritating is that strudel is an Austrian pastry, yet they have the kid decked out in lederhosen and looking like an escapee from a Biergarten at Oktoberfest. There's a new a commercial with an American-looking kid eating a toaster strudel and a voice-over praising how gooey, flaky, and full of icing it is. Nothing's wrong with the commercial, but I find myself missing Strudel Boy. My kids and I watch his commercials and find ourselves repeating "flaaaky, gooo-ey," over & over.

Callasin June 8, 2015 Share June 8, 2015 (edited) I have found a new kid to hate. He invites his friend over because his parents have solar panels and can afford to run the air conditioner colder than every other house in the neighborhood. Friend arrives at the front door and kid lets him in. After friend comments how cool the house is they both run off leaving the front door wide open. Mom just smiles at them and goes over to close the door without saying a word. Solar panels or not my mom would have told us to march right over and close the door "I am not paying to cool the entire neighborhood!" instead of doing it for us.
