Hate is a strong word. But in this situation it is totally necessary. This is meant for humor, but this is serious, these things get on my nerves. More than me hating them, they make me go wtf. Also, I don't believe in hating people... but I do believe in being irked by some of the stupid things they do.

When Insurance Companies Have Five Different Types of Commercials

Ok now. I'm not pointing any fingers at any company in particular. But, Shmeico, do you really need 5 different kinds of commercials? How do I hate thee, let my count your commercial strategies:

-The Gecko. He's pretty classic... but it's kind of going a little far.
-The creepy guy that introduces the Little piggy one, etc. He's just kind of creepy. These are hit and miss.
-The crappily done CGi ones. These are just bad. They're never very funny... just saying.
-The Cavemen. Remember that time they made a sitcom out of this? Ha. Exactly.
-Any other shit they decide to plop out. That all gets a category to itself.

I just can't stand it. Back in the day Shmeico had the gecko commercials and that was pretty much it. You saw a gecko, you thought of Shmeico. It was perfect. But now... now the world doesn't make sense.

This doesn't mean that only Shmeico does this. Ball Shmate used to only have the smooth-talking black man, and now they have the douche guy (although he is pretty good). Shmate Parm used to have neighborly ones, and now they have the Mario Lopez imposter speaking about nothing and then ones with teenagers being idiots. 

I will admit, at first I hated Protressive's commercials with their spokesgirl.... Blo. But now I love her. She pretty much rocks my socks.

Like how I changed all of the names so that I don't get in trouble with anyone or anything like that? Ha... whatever.

Much love.
