Bad, unhealthy, unholy commercials

[dreamermind]

Every time I see that Tommy John commercial for their underwear it gives me the heebegeevies. The lady that says she wants to be naked and says it like three times over and over. Ugh. Gross.

Any others that bother you? I know there’s more!

It's mentioned in another thread but I am seeing a lot more commercials with same sex couples.
Let the normalization continue.

On a non concerned note, I am also seeing a lot of "mixed" couples. Just an interesting fact.

Part of the issue is that the ratio presented of all these "couples" does not even closely represent the true percentage of those types of mixings.

That's how you know they are pushing an agenda.

They are over the top with their underware commercials. However, its not as creepy as the old burger King commmercial where the “king” is in bed with a couple when they wake up.

The King seems to be creepy no matter what he's doing. I think that's supposed to be part of the shtick.

Maybe it's that Jokeresque grin on his face.

My son and I were just discussing every one of these points two hours ago. Definitely agree they’re pushing an agenda.

I want to add we are replete with weak men being portrayed in sit-coms and ads. Whatever happened to manly men?

That's been happening for awhile now. I would be interested in a chart showing when it started but I personally think it started around the 70's or roughly when the feminism movement started.

This is another agenda/normalization push.

I detest commercials! They insert sleaze into your living room, and also try to manipulate us with marketing techniques into greed.

I began a policy in our home when our boys were small to always mute commercials, and we still do this, even if it’s just my husband and me at home. I can do without that noise!

I am tired of the same sex commercials, two women about to kiss in a hotel pool, another commercial with 2 guys on a sofa, and this morning 2 guys kissed on some commercial , I just started my day, just woke up and yukk!Lord how much longer, it must be soon.

And people wonder why I got rid of cable....

For me it’s the horror commercials. I have a 4 and 10 year old and the evil showing demons and characters like pennywise is just too much for me.

Yeah there are quite a few shows titled “Evil” these days I’ve noticed.

Much of children’s programming is just that!!! Programming the young malleable minds the way that is correct, at least, in the worlds mind. Kids need to be properly prepared to exist in the world that is present today.

 

[AnewcreationinJesus]

I don't watch 'em!! Don't want to fill my mind with the vile stuff... Urgh.... It truly is satanic programming...

You touched a pet peeve. I so hated that commercial cause it weirded me out. Couldn't stand it. If I woke up and found some dude in my bed he would be under attack.

I only have over the air tv so I guess I just haven't seen a lot of these. They mostly play old people insurance commercials...lol

I started muting commercials years ago, and when we got interactive TV,
we taped what we wanted to see to be able to fast-forward through the commercials.

Nowadays we gave up on TV altogether, we only watch YouTube pastors and Netflix.
And from Netflix only those that meet my standards (no swearing, no extreme violence).

Last week somebody quoted a commercial line, which I didn’t understand at all.
He was so taken aback about that, I had to laugh. I was a weirdo in his eyes. LOL!

Back when my wife and kids were at the house I almost always muted the TV commercials.

They stopped making westerns. Although some of the police shows are rough and tumble.

Yep, us, too. I view YouTube videos of Andy Woods or godly music by the Herbsters Evangelistic Team. Nowadays, I have a lot less anxiety and emotional distress. I figured out that TV in general, the news, made-for-TV movies were upsetting me, robbing me of the joy and peace that God wants me to have. I don't miss it one bit.
