Not a real grateful recipient, the car has too many miles. UGH ! Talk about snooty rich people commercials ! I hate all the Christmas car commercials, but setting my general annoyance aside, I don't have a problem with her asking about the mileage. There are about 900 miles on it; if it was a used car, I'd definitely want to know why someone was selling it after so few miles, and if it was a new car, I'd want to know just how the hell many test drives it went on or how many dealerships it was transferred between to have that many miles -- of course, it turns out that's because Hubby decided to take it for quite a few joy rides before giving it to her. These "surprising someone with a new car for Christmas" commercials in general bring up all sorts of mine/yours/ours financial considerations, and are just overall weird to me. If you're sharing money with a spouse, that's a big purchase for one half of the pair to make without consulting the other. If you're not, that's an uncomfortably large gift.

Oh speaking of phones, I like my iPhone very much, Samsung, and why does that guy keep upgrading his phone but keeping the one he no longer uses? Do people do that? I’ve never saved a phone, I either donate it, sell it or when I upgrade next I think Verizon will take mine back for some credit. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/307/#findComment-3842059
smittykins November 25, 2017 Share November 25, 2017 I briefly tried Boost Mobile several years ago in an attempt to save money, but they use Sprint's network, which sucks monkey balls in this area. I'm on Verizon's cheapest smartphone prepaid plan. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/307/#findComment-3842172
peacheslatour November 25, 2017 Share November 25, 2017 We have Samsung J3 Primes. With T Mobile it's sixty bucks a month for two phones, unlimited text and talk.

Fortunately, ours die after we're eligible for an upgrade. So we keep the old ones. They're not worth anything. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/307/#findComment-3842917
friendperidot November 26, 2017 Share November 26, 2017 (edited) Quinn, just in case you have a lot of old telephones sitting around, women's shelters and domestic violence groups will take them. Even if there is no account attached to the phone, 911 can still be called and it's a life line for some women. Or, so I've been told. I only use a cheap flip phone, and all of my old phones were replaced because 1) puppy chewed up the phone, 2) nephew had it, had an argument with a friend, one friend threw the phone across the room, he did pay for a replacement, and the other time the friend smashed it with a hammer. Nephew no longer gets to use my phone.

SmithW6079 November 26, 2017 Share November 26, 2017 (edited) I generally hate the Sprint commercials with the former Verizon "Can you hear me now?" guy, but the Christmas one has really ratcheted that hatred up. Paul the d-bag asks another character why he doesn't have the "iPhone season spirit." https://www.ispot.tv/ad/wDJS/sprint-iphone-season-iphone-forever On the other hand, I do admire that a retailer finally admitted the holiday season is all about buying things and conspicuous consumption and not any of those annoying religious/goodwill toward others reasons .

Thank you. Why they wanted to turn Joe Montana into a mouth-breathing clod who can’t understand the concept of a masterpass—and then is driven to *throw a vase across the room* at the mere mention of the word “pass”—is beyond me. Is there a meta statement embedded in this ad related to the dangers of football-related head trauma? Why, Joe? Why? Not to mention that Kat Dennings drives me up a wall, anyway. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/307/#findComment-3845925
