what is going on in this society??? i don't watch much tv (as in none) and didn't watch any of the super bowl. however i did check out the super bowl ads since there were a couple from last year i enjoyed.
god, the dregs. there was sooooo much violence and what's up with that?! many of the others were variously stupid, juvenile, demeaning, brainless, or sexist.
there were a few which were cute or clever (coke's happiness factory, taco bell, and bud's great apes) -- all from the third quarter. nationwide insurance was kinda fun just to see kevin make fun of himself. and the hp computer commercial wasn't bad.
but the other 43 ads? disgusting moronic evidence that an evil force has infiltrated advertising and is trying to undermine this country by brainwashing us with unsophisticated, vulgar, insulting proclamations of stuff we should want.
just yuck.
update: here is a site where you can actually vote for the ad of your choice (and there were several which weren't included in the cbs display). however, if you have any intelligence at all your choice won't be in the top 10. or even top 20.

That is EXACTLY how I felt about the commercials. The pratfalls and insults were stupid and NOT FUNNY! I'm ready to go back to the farm now.
