You think these are bad, try living overseas and watching the commercials they'll play on AFN (which stands for Armed or American Forces Network, I believe). My older brother jokes how he should've recorded these when our family lived over in Germany so he could play them to his kids as a form of punishment. Here's one example:
The commercial is two Navy chicks playing racquetball, and the one girl goes 'You're off your game today. Is everything all right?' the other one goes 'There's this guy at work; he's been asking me out out, making these, you know, suggestive remarks. It's just getting to me, you know.'
Girl 1: 'Have you tried talking to him about it at all?'
Girl 2: 'No. I just figured... ya know. Well what if I tell him, and he doesn't stop?'
Girl 1: 'Then you report him. I'm sure he'd rather hear it from you than from his supervisor.'
Girl 2: 'Yeah, yeah, you're right. I'll talk to him about it first thing tomorrow. It's your serve.'
Grade F acting on junk like this. And sexual harassment isn't the only thing. Try three years as a 10-13 year old with commercials being nothing but stuff like this or junk about writing bad checks, wearing every piece of safety gear known to man, contacting your legal assistance office, etc.
I would've leapt for joy back then at seeing TV ads for the stuff you guys are saying is crap. Seriously. That's how bad these AFN commercials are. They'd beat just about every single one of these, hands down.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
