lol such a skeeve

there are these sharper image ads that are so incredibly poor. they're just like clip-art of monkeys with bad monkey "puns".

like there's a monkey on a gift-wrapped box and it says "hey hey we're the monkeys" on the poster and then "sharper image".

its the laziest thing i've ever seen.

these?

why

Yeah really, we are living out the endgame of "juxtaposition wackiness"

those are the worst and are making me definitely never want to try mail chimp.

MailShrimp pisses me off most of all

god knows none of the others are funny either but at least they bothered to rhyme both syllables

srsly fuck these ppl -- even gregg might be better

somewhere out there, Dale Rimp boards the train, looks up and something catches his eye

probably a shrimp

nothing is worse than the new round of StreetEasy ads playing up their sickening one-percenter market more directly than ever, like, oh man I totally know what you mean, if I see a $3,000-a-month one-bedroom I just have to snap that up on general principle! FUuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUCK YOUUUUUUUUUU

MailShrimp pisses me off most of all

Never knew what these guys were selling, but it reminded me why it's a good thing I did not own an Uzi while working as an advertising peon.

At BAM, they show a MailShrimp ad/video before every... fucking... film.

slightly jealous of couples who can take an inside joke so far it becomes a beloved present.

The basic idea here is that 40 years of stagnant wages, the decline of unions, the death of middle class blue collar jobs, the demise of pensions, and a general slide of the American working world into a PTSD-inducing horror show of limitless vulnerability has been too easy on workers. I’m sorry, Doers, or whatever the fuck. The true beauty of these ads is that they are all predicated on mythologizing the very workers who their service is intended to immisserate. Sorry about your medical debt; here’s a photo of a model who we paid in “exposure” over ad copy written by an intern who we paid in college credit that cost $3,000 a credit hour. Enjoy.

have only seen one of 'em, but: the poster for new book THE WAR ON COPS is absolutely infuriating.

the tunnel of mouths in the west 4th st station is some serious cronenberg body horror shit, fuck's sake postmates

there's one of a woman eating a macaron on the turnstile that's so poorly cropped i thought she was eating a can of chewing tobacco

young sheldon is really taking me back to the glory days of SEAN

will he be beaten up every 3rd ep?

yessssss

man seems like the mom in that show sure had to put up with a lot from SEAN

i'm assuming young sheldon is like a richie rich character, or more like a doogie howser but he's a business prodigy instead of a doctor. see he gets money and figures but has a lot to learn about life. really he would have made a great addition to SEAN's wacky little family unit.

On my commute this morning, two little kids were talking about baseball. Kid 1 says his favorite player was Babe Ruth, Kid 2 says he's dead, and Kid 1 said he died by electrocution. I don't know where the hell he got that from.

So that was a cute moment on an otherwise bleak summer of commuting.

Woah, that seems kinda weird now that I've written it out. I'm coming from a strange place here, people.

Would you use time travel to kill Young Sheldon?

i have been informed w/out words that Elliott Gould and Linda Lavin are in a new sitcom

at some point i became aware that 'young sheldon' was a stupid spinoff of stupid big bang theory and started hating those ads even more.

why are so many subway ads/billboards about EJACULATE now?

casper mattresses and the seediness of internet commerce

ha!

lol, that's the snowman ad moved over. i like it when people do the juxtaposition box cutter trick

can't remember whether it's seamless or grubhub or bleepblorp but whoever has the "quirky" "hilarious" "that's so me" versions of special instructions added to orders... GAH. it's impossible not to picture the poor working stiffs at the restaurant getting these obnoxious AF requests showing up on the line and having to weigh the chance that the person actually expects this nonsense and will give them a shitty yelp review otherwise.

the one where the delivery guy is instructed to hassle the people on the next floor down for stealing their wifi = omg fuck off

nothing is as bad as fiverr

yeah fiverr kind of uniquely encapsulates an entire hateful awful mindset, in all its vast opinion of itself

meanwhile, the goony group photo of Big Bang Theory has returned to bother us all

hm... testing something, don't mind me

fiverr has not only the most nauseating message but manages to find uniquely punchable faces to match
