Oh lawd, do I hate Progressive commercials. That spokeswoman is the most annoying individual they could have possibly chosoen to represent themselves. That's the thing about them - in the rare occourance the content of the commercial is clever, that woman ruins it with her obnoxious voice and borderline stuck-up attitude. By all means, find a better mascot. Though nothing Progressive can come up with compares to that God-awful Zoosk online dating ad...in all seriousness, you could not brutally beat the sense out of that one. Anyone who's seen it knows what I'm talking about - it's so rediculous it more or less cancels itself out. And perscription medication ads get on my nerves with all their side-effect warnings - but none moreso than Latisse. Seriously? A perscription eye lash enhancement? There are people out there willing to put their health and finance in jeapordy so that they may grow longer eye lashes? False lashes exist for a reason - it seems some people are yet to discover this.
I'm sure there are more - also worth mentioning I think are some of those short between-commercials shorts airing on Cartoon Network these days - you know, the ones that serve the same sort of role as Stick Stickly did on the Afternoon Nickelodeon block way back when. Most of them are so utterly tasteless it's hard to belive that they are being approved for a childrens network - though some of the programs themselves are just as innapropriate. I'm starting to sound like an old geezer now. Stay off my lawn, kiddos.
