I post my least favorite commercials here (4 Viewers)

Welp, guys and gals, I think I've reached the point in life where I'd say that most ad "execs" and definitely the creative forces behind most advertising these days are probably 15-20 years younger than me (and the rest of us here, for the most part). That said, I'm finding more and more commercials annoy the crap out of me. When I was 10 or 11 and hung out at one buddy's place quite a bit and would have the TV on, I always noticed his Dad muted all commercial breaks. Always thought that was somewhat peculiar, but he must have just reached the same "annoyance apex" (a term I just coined) that I've apparently set foot on. Case in point, a couple of doozies that make me want to punch the TV:
1. I think it's an ad for Papa John's, when a couple of 30-somethings are loading up some new pizza they have where there's shredded cheddar on the crust (ooh, so inventive!), and one of the dolts says something to the effect of "the cheese gods must have bestowed this cheese upon us", and the other moron says "no, it was probably just a local dairy", to which she responds "yeah, that tracks". That TRACKS? GTFO.
2. Another moronic pair talking about the new Bet-ESPN app, and one dummy is blabbering on about how nice it would be to have an all-in-one sports app where you could (gasp) get highlights from AND make bets on your favorite teams. Well, the 30-something year old sassy pants chick says "you're literally describing Bet-ESPN... which exists". For the love of God shut up.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, get off my f'in lawn.... damn whippersnappers.
