Let's talk about McDonald's video advertisement format for their $1 $2 $3 Dollar Menu. It seems that for any low to mild to semi-stressful situation that you may be in that McDonald's has a remedy for it in the form of some sort of circumstantially specific combination of items included on their $1 $2 $3 Dollar Menu, the holy Grail of relief, the #1 resort for all of your problems. Got a paper that's due tomorrow and you've gotta while that thing out but you also crave a milkshake or smoothie? Some cold drink to cool your brain as it works at it's highest capacity? Got you covered. Didn't think that there was going to be a sleepover with your daughter bringing over SEVERAL friends and you simply don't k ow how you're going to feed all of these 8 year old mouths in fairy dress up costumes? Got you covered. Grammy died? Oh no uh we got the it's here have a big Mac but you gotta pay the $6 for it

Oh no. Why. Why do companies have to try to appeal to people. Maybe they're not really trying to appeal to the internet vloggers. If so, then they really need to hire new people to script their commercial. Why do I think this? Well, to put it simply, the Progressive Box commercial about the box vlogging about it's life makes me want to regurgitate from my eye balls. I hate it. I mean,it's funny, but only because it makes me cringe. In this commercial, the box is basically vlogging, and, that's fine, but the cringe part about it is the editing. A specific example of this is when the Progressive Box goes up to his regular roasted almonds street vender, the poor guy, and points the camera at him. Already, it's bad, because the look on the guy's face is clearly that if despair. A look of disappointment in his life. The mundane has become selling people roasted almonds. Then the unspeakable happens. Air horns. Not, like, real air horns that the audio of his cam...

Taxes. Man’s most... taxing…. Invention. And so, immediately, I have hit what we like to call the buzz kill. The killer of that high that you get in the anticipation or something great to come, or something already going strong. I didn’t even get the chance to get going strong. I just killed it before it could be born. How cruel. Well, now I can take that energy and use it elsewhere. But that’s exactly what taxes are. They take away your coin so that it can be given away or used. Please, spare me. This is my young adult view. Peoples livelihoods are made off of the citizen’s tax dollars. This, I understand. And, while at its core seems like a very easy process… People like money. We need money in this world, whether you like it or not. We have got to get the most coin out of ut checks as possible. That’s where services like TurboTax come in. Turbo Tax is an income tax preparation software used to file taxes online. File your taxes, get your tax refund (which is basica...

Last time on me “talking about a bunch of commercials that are crazy and super irrational," w e talked about one of the medieval themed But Light commercials. And now, we are going to talk about another. And by we, I mean we, and I’m very much loving the fact that this can be incredibly informal and that I can use contractions at the very beginning of a sentence and that I can use run-on sentences. Now that I’ve spent about 160 words on exposition, let’s get into the next medieval Bud Light commercial that I’m going to pick at. Let’s get on to the good old battles, MEDIEVAL MIGHT!!! Let’s see what all that “live action role playing on a saturday but it rolls over to sunday because freaking DALE didn’t want to just surrender so now you’re gonna be late for Nana’s good old macaroni pie” fuss is about shall we? “Battle Pep Talk” - Here we have the king of… a kingdom. I say “a” kingdom here of course because there is another kingdom on the other side of the field. A much b...

Here is how one easily and accurately describes the Bud Light Medieval Commercials… "Brewed to be enjoyed responsibly" but the people are doing irrational things revolving around it such as turning down immortality and attempting to win a war that they clearly aren't going to. Now here is a more “in-depth” response to these wonderful ads about this brand of courage juice . People. People living their lives in the dark ages. Kings, battles, pits of misery - and all the while, people say “dilly dilly!”... where such is said in the “Pit of Misery” bit. Let’s take a closer look at that, shall we? “Pit of Misery” - One man, one courageous, witful young man FINALLY ESCAPES the dreaded Pit of Misery!! AT LAST!!! WE commend you, brother… He’s back. Why the heck is he back?! THis man is whistling, unlocking the door and waltzing back in. But look. He’s got good old Bud Light under his arms. He’s a loyal one indeed. That beer gives you a real inte...
