Oh, the one where the couple revisits all these sentimental places then he proposes? Yeah that was weird. Nope, I don't like it. Man, I hate buying jewelry. Boy, I thought that dude to be a bit effeminate. Damn, I am tired.

Better to be a nerd (or more accurately a geek) than to be a schmuck that gets suckered into going to one of these jewelry chain stores and buying their overpriced garbage.

As bad as the commercial mentioned in the OP is, NOTHING compares to the unmitigated SUCK that is ANY Jared commercial.

I swear every time I see one of those commercials I want to run out and egg (or worse...) every Jared I can find...

Again, I reiterate that those Jared commercials are destroying whatever cool cache my name once had. If I ever meet anyone involved in that ad campaign I'm hitting them with a sock full of nickels.

And that's to say nothing of that megaturd from Subway.

Dude, all you need to do is to call that Stambaugh/Guild thingie of yours "The Jared" and it will instantly be a cool name again.

I hate jewelry commercials.

Men! Buy your woman a diamond or you are an inadequate lover and provider, so she'll leave you!

They made that one sound like a female "HAL9000"..."I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that..."

That one REALLY p!$$es me off, not only is it annoying and condescending, but they ripped off Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick! Talk about nerve, not only are you a jack@$$ for the commercials in general, but you stole ideas from a couple of the true geniuses of the past 50 years!

Yet more reason to at minimum boycott for life the business, if not more drastic measures....

Yeah.

Oh, and I wanted to point out again that last year I saw the greatest vanity plate ever. It said HAL9000 and it was on a Honda Odyssey.
