Intrusion - McPick Two McDonald's commercial invaded YouTube videos and became the cause for my annoyance whenever it comes on. I make it a point to mute the commercial before the video. This is intrusion because commercials should be advertisements that make you want to buy the product or go to the place. Every time I see a McPick Two commercial from McDonald's, I would rather go to Wendy's than McDonald's afterwards out of spite.
Deception - For this Campbell's Chicken Vegetable soup, we all know that there is never that many vegetables in that one soup can. This was actually a major deception court case, since Campbell's got in deep trouble for showing way more vegetables in the soup bowl, but after buying cans, students at a university challenged that they did not have as many vegetables that they were showing in the commercials. Turns out they put marbles underneath the soup so the vegetables popped out of the liquid part of the soup.
Shake Em Up Fries from Burger King were super unhealthy and added an even more unhealthy aspect to fries - powdered cheese. This, however, did not last long at Burger King. The unhealthiness - and many reviews - gave reasons as to why they did not stay at the burger chain. Many commercials nowadays show the unhealthy foods and never healthy foods. I can't remember the last time I watched a commercial for healthy food.
This commercial was offensive on so many levels. No woman is REQUIRED to shave for a "fun" night, if at all, and if a man or woman complains that a woman's legs are prickly, they can go, quite literally, fuck themselves. This was offensive also to men because of the fact that it gives off the notion that ALL men care about what a girl's hair length/prickliness is, when in fact, a lot of guys could care less. This commercial could have been done better considering it is a Nair commercial.
This commercial hits any female or male that can't lose weight in the time frame they want or at all. This ties into low self-esteem because it's a "take a pill and you'll shed pounds" as if that actually is healthy.
No words needed. Guess who won the election that year? This has to do with the secular critique from the Bush/Dukakis election. Bush critiqued Dukakis for allowing prisoners weekend cards which Willie Horton raped and killed a guy's girlfriend. Election attack ads are especially normal nowadays
SAVE WATER - Funny commercial but it gets the point across.
This is about how poverty shouldn't happen and talks about the organization's benefit.
