And I talked about my annoyance with the Zyrtec commercial. In short, No. I don't know the song Time in a Bottle.
And I could mention the violent urges the FreeCreditReport.com guy brings about every time I see his ugly face.
But nothing, NOTHING could equal my hatred for this Microsoft commercial.
They talk about an economic tsunami, which is unbelievably offensive when you think about the thousands of tsunami victims. And then this douche talks about how great a tsunami is for a surfing CEO.
And then he says his company is doing great in this bad environment, which is supposed to make me happy for him? Seriously, this commercial is insensitive and stupid and ugly.
And I don't know what the fuck they're talking about, neither. Something about wolf packs. I guess I'm not their target audience, not being a surfing CEO and all.
The video is below, just in case you don't know what I'm talking about. But you do know. And you know it's the most horrible commercial in the history of this great planet.

What, no disdain for the sprint commercials featuring CEO Dan Hesse? It's the most outrageous example of self-delusion I've ever seen. I don't get a paycheck from the man, and he means nothing to me. Why should I feel honored that he's deigned to appear in a commercial to tell me about his product, and why should I care?
You know what...? I had to look it up. It's one of those commercials I see and it just passes me by. And not in a good way. Not in a "I don't know what just happened, but I want to switch to Sprint." I don't know if it made me mad. But I understand what you're saying. This is not the time for CEO to show themselves with laptops in the backseat of taxis or limos.
And the douche is wearing a seat belt in the back seat. Wanker.
Still, I wouldn't put it on the same level as the Microsoft one, because even though I didn't pay attention to it when it was playing, when it was over I was inexplicably angry.
