Commercials that Annoy Me - Old Navy Mannequins

Hi, hello, how are you? I realize this is Godsauce's column (please don't sue me I don't even have any money) but he said he wouldn't be doing it past the first one, partially because he "just [hadn't] been watching enough television". I, on the other hand, watch television way too much and have slowly built up incredible amounts of hatred towards commercials over the years. (Does this opening feel a bit passive aggressive to anyone? It's not meant to if it does.) However, there will be a big difference between what I am doing and what he did. While his post was well thought out and featured a commercial that truly deserved to be ridiculed thanks to an almost offensively poor John Lennon impersonator, I will use this as a place to funnel my blind rage of commercials, which, to be completely honest, will be probably pretty unfounded most of the time. Anyways, here it is.



FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. I cannot put why this commercial is an abomination into words (probably 'cause I am not very good with words. I dropped out of words 101*) but that does not make it any less awful. And hey! Guess what? There are so, so many more. I realize some of those do not reach the terrible quota set by the first video, but those are just the worst ones I could easily find.

I would like to apologize the picture I am about to post- actually, you know what? No. This picture is way too good for you Old Navy. Go burn in hell.
(I did notice that by accident, so no judgment. (It's the little mannequin girls arm in case you could not figure it out.(Also, whoops! I am in jail and I like brackets too much.)))

I guess that's all. Hopefully there will not be a next time because this was awful for both of us (I assume). Goodbye!

*Sorry for not being that funny in any of my posts. I'm trying to get better at it!

  1. I thought it was funny. I was happy just to have inspired this. One day, maybe I'll even make another post in this series myself.

  2. Thank you for that. It means a lot coming from the person who alters Family Circus (no sarcasmo).
