I pretty much hate this spokesperson in the Match commercials. He's that awful combination of smug, nasally voiced, and I know more than you ever could attitude synonymous with As Seen on TV commercial spots.

Look thirty seconds to search something, wow so fast




Do you consider yourself happy, I mean by the standards of my spokesperson status, happy?

This group though it would be funny to advertise their save the environment campaign with a "funny" movie,where the message is go green OR DIE!!! Talk about a passive aggressive message! "It's ok if you don't want to reduce your carbon footprint, but you might want to consider it if you value your life! Just kidding lol!"

what's even worse is on their website for a while they admitted this is actually what they want to do to people who don't agree with them

I know, that's what they wanted to do, but come on! Making a video with thinly veiled terrorist like threats, and then haphazardly slapping on a "humor" label on it will not get people to support your cause! At first, I thought this was a parody of one of those environment PSAS, I literately facepalmed when I learned it was serious.

How much carbon dioxide is emitted when you blow someone up?
 
How much is generated by creating live-action mass-media PSAs?

Reminds me of the logging protestors who carry around paper signs on wooden sticks...
 
The other day I was driving and saw a cheap tiny roadside sign "WE BUY SHIT HOUSES (phone number)".
I appreciated its honesty.
To be fair, a person could end up inheriting a horror show of a house and not know what to do with it. Imagine if the Slaton sisters had a third sister who got the hell out and made something out of themselves. Their sisters drop dead after their hearts finally wave the white flag, and now said sane person has a crap home that will cost more to make it salable than it's worth. Dump it on those people and get the hell out.

I can only assume that such noble speakers of truths know what they're getting themselves into.
 
There are some kind of weird commercials that come on while watching Off Beat Cinema but this one caught my eye as I don't think I've ever seen a commercial for a book let alone someone's self-published vampire novel.
 
some examples from the other end of the pond:

The first one is supposed to be an add for a hardware store in germany that tries to always emphasize how cheap their prices and how big their offer is

That one is meant to be a german add for Oreos

Another one, for which I can't find a video, but was for life insurance once went as followed:

A little kid and both her parents are in the living room, reading. Then the daughter suddenly says the following:
"Mommy... if daddy dies, I get a pony!"
And then the mother objects that when he dies she buys a car.
The entire spot is supposed to make "light" of the fact that they are so well insured, if the husband dies, they can afford that stuff.
In reality it just came of as so mean spirited, the add was officially boycotted to the point that the company had to remove it cause they lost customers.

I presume the survivors aren't allowed to wash their clothes because, you know, carbon emission.
 
This was made a few years ago and was thoroughly torn apart by most people on YouTube upon release. It's full of lies, misrepresentations and it's just cringeworthy to watch. I actually feel sorry for the kids in it because they were clearly forced into doing it by adults.
