Worthy of Failblog?

November 2, 2009 10:27 PM

was watching TV tonight, and, due to the fact that I wasn't watching stuff off the DVR, I had to sit through commercials. I hate commercials, but I'm sorta glad I did this time, because something hilarious happened. This commercial came up that was clearly one of those extremely low-budget ads for some extremely sketchy pseudo-company. Then it cut to this screen:

That's right--they want you to call their website. Or they named their company after the website, which, unless you're Google or Yahoo, just seems like a bad idea. Plus, also, how large is the target audience for this ad? How many people are in this situation where their car's been written off and they think they got a raw deal? And of those, what percentage is watching HGTV at 8pm on a Monday? This ad is a failure no matter how you cut it.

Anyway, yeah. Other than that, i had a great weekend, Halloween was awesome, I spent Sunday lazing about the house, and now it's the work week again. I really think that every third week should be a vacation.
