I really wish TiVos would come out over here already, because I would snap that up in a heartbeat. I really think I ought to be able to watch Law & Order: The Munch and Finn Show Stabler Goes Postal Yet Again Special Victim Unit without being told my job is a waste of money and I'm a chicken (some internet-only bank--FirstDirect?), that my girlparts smell and sticking Yeast Infection In A Quiet Wrapper So You Can Pretend You Don't Bleed From The Crotch Like Almost Every Other Woman up there is a splendid idea, oh and by the way, you should eat breakfast not because you're hungry or you want to or because it's fucking healthy for you, but, obviously, because it makes you thinner--but hey, everyone knows thin = healthy, right?
(Yes, I get twitchy about commercials a lot. Help me feel like less of a freak by sharing your own peeves re: commercials/advertising?)

You know which one I really really really really REALLY hate with the firey hate of OMG HATE?
The 'Sheila's Wheels' one. It's stupid, cheesy, SEXIST, stereotypes women, stereotypes men too, loud, arrogant, badly sung, full of poor taste, and the girls aren't even pretty. Want to KILL.
Also hate all L'Oreal adverts on principle, especially the one about the wrinkle cream with Claudia whatshername where she's all "my wrinkles look filled" -- grabs her kid -- "and my life is too." OMG NO. First of all, BAD grammar. I can understand why they did it -- you can't exactly be saying "my wrinkles ARE filled", but still, bad grammar. Also OMG BITCH you do NOT get to say that your, or anyone else's, life is only truly fulfilled if they've sprogged. HATE.
