Welcome back!
Have you checked out the recent commercials that have appeared on TV?
It is an amazing crop. Most of them are not appealing because they show behavior that is not good. Sacrificing humans to test a candy bar; snotty, bratty children who put down their parents or sass them and back talk. [...]

My brother-in-law mentioned that I should clarify what it is that I am talking about.
Some of those commercials that bother me are these:

My question for the day is….who decided that rudeness, arrogance, snottiness and other inappropriate behaviors are good advertising?

I have been watching those commercials that seem to use people as the art work.
My main thought is - how’d they do that?
It is amazing how the people are arranged to make the different types of scenes and the things that we see in those scenes. The clouds are people, the sun is people, [...]

I do not understand the recent wave of advertising that implies that Americans are stupid, or morons.

I do not like most of today’s commercials. Too many times they present themselves with rude arrogant people, and kids that act like brats. The kids act like brats and get rewarded for it. That is wrong.
What ever happened to commercials that can be entertaining? Now it is like the commercials [...]
