"You can feel it, hold it, put it in your mouth, and see how great it tastes," suggests a handsome man in a new commercial. No, he is not talking about his dick, but a British brand of e-cigarettes called VIP. Read… 12/03/13 3:30pm 12/03/13 3:30pm

Adweek has (rightly) praised this spec ad written for Durex, a cautionary, slow-mo montage of fathers having their testicles smashed by careless toddlers set to the Moonlight Sonata. All of this nut violence could have been avoided if these dudes just practiced safe sex and avoided procreation. Humanity has had a… Read… 8/04/13 12:00pm 8/04/13 12:00pm

What you’re about to witness is basically the creepiest doll advertisement you’ll ever see, since it’s more, as Buzzfeed’s Leonora Epstein so astutely pointed out, a trailer for “the world’s scariest movie” than an effective doll marketing technique. The only “people” who would buy Baby Laugh-a-Lot after watching… Read… 7/13/13 1:30pm 7/13/13 1:30pm

This is a commercial for...a hotel? I think? Bah, who even cares? Look at all the bunnies cuddling and sniffing the air warily, as if some voracious predator is going to leap out from under the covers and throttle them all to death. Stupid, adorable bunnies! Adweek speculates that the commercial maestros behind… Read… 6/06/13 8:35pm 6/06/13 8:35pm

If there’s one thing the American male does not have enough of, it’s places to watch sporting matches and gossip over the latest stock market news. The full dude experience reaches far, sure, but it doesn’t reach far enough, which is why a new plus-size retailer is hoping to change the game for men who’ve been… Read… 5/06/13 11:10am 5/06/13 11:10am

There’s not really much to say that George from Arlen’s Transmissions doesn’t sing in this remarkably creepy local commercial. If you have a shifting problem (wink, wink, say no more!), then you ought to pay George a visit because he’s basically the Cesar Millan of transmissions. Unless you’re a dude — George… Read… 4/30/13 11:20pm 4/30/13 11:20pm

Ah, the American father — that beer-guzzling, football-watching, hamburger-grilling lump of a human who so often prostrates himself on the family couch before his stupefied children like a sedated gorilla has been soundly mocked as a hapless oaf since, well, General Yepanchin in The Idiot. Then, of course, there's … Read… 3/15/13 4:20pm 3/15/13 4:20pm

A new ad for the vegetarian brand Lightlife reimagines Old Macdonald's Farm as a Tim Burton-esque setting populated with animals composed of different vegetables, like walking, lowing, pecking jigsaw puzzles of plant matter. The commercial's vegetable animals are cute the way that Frankenweenie dog is cute, though,… Read… 9/13/12 11:15pm 9/13/12 11:15pm

The beer goblins who make Tecate really want their male customers to enjoy room-temperature beer without being bothered by crying girlfriends. I mean, what's with the deal with women crying all the time? It's like [observational humor].

Charlie Sheen came back from the brink of crazy and is now comfortably languishing in the meadow of crazy, where TV producers, satellite providers, and Italian loafer-sized cars lavish him with generous contracts and feed him very expensive grapes. How is it possible that such a seemingly irrelevant and unhinged… Read… 7/24/12 9:30am 7/24/12 9:30am

Consider SNL's parodic Amazon commercial a cautionary tale about bringing your mom breakfast in bed next Sunday — don't invade her private boudoir of onanism just to give her a platter of burned toast and orange juice from concentrate, because the half-hearted gesture won't erase a year's worth of filial apathy and… Discuss… 5/06/12 1:30pm 5/06/12 1:30pm

Dogs are usually pretty good at tugging at our heartstrings, but when you set them to music and highlight all of the sweet and brave things they do to take care of us, all hell breaks loose in the human heart. This may look like a simple spot for Purina, but really it is some high-level plot by the dog kingdom to… Read… 2/15/12 9:10pm 2/15/12 9:10pm

There's so much excitement during the Super Bowl that it can be easy to get caught up in all the hoopla and... forget to attend to basic bodily functions? Most people are usually more concerned with consuming as many nachos as possible than they are about whether they're breathing or have to go potty, but according to … Read… 1/31/12 9:05pm 1/31/12 9:05pm

Newsweek recently held its annual Oscar Roundtable, which features actors talking to each other about their craft. Here's a snippet of George Clooney relying on a steady stream of swear words as he discusses his strategy for making movies these days.

If a national commercial depicting a lesbian couple in pajamas talking about the fact that they have sex —because they're two people in a relationship and not because there's a guy around to think it's totally hot— isn't a win, I don't know what is. Read… 9/03/11 1:15pm 9/03/11 1:15pm

Supré is a family-owned and operated clothing company founded in 1984, with stores in Australia and New Zealand. Similar to what Americans can find at Forever 21 (though perhaps not quite as inexpensive), Supré shoppers are offered tees, knitwear, jackets, cardigans, party dresses, accessories… and, now, jeggings.… Read… 6/06/11 3:02pm 6/06/11 3:02pm

Despite having a large rack, I don't understand the need for the Kush Support. It looks like a dildo, and must have been invented by someone into titfucking. And $55? Are you smoking kush? [Buzzfeed] Discuss… 6/22/09 10:40am 6/22/09 10:40am

Models. St-st-stutter speech; techno music; Photoshop of Horrors; a meteor; a pink pony; a crashing wave. What is it? The Matthew Williamson for H&M commercial. Of course. (Embedded after jump.) [AdFreak] Discuss… 5/07/09 5:40pm 5/07/09 5:40pm
