I can't even put my finger on what exactly annoys me so much about this commercial. But I thinks it's the close up of the girl's socks and then the look on her face as she slowly bites into the chocolate with her eyes closed. Then the "Life's too short for ordinary chocolate" statement. Kind of weird to put a reminder of impending death in an ad for chocolate candies....

Plus, nobody bites into those things.

You just pop the entire thing into your mouth and let it melt into a puddle of sweet, heavenly, chocolate goo.

As with everything else they assume appeals mainly to women, they have to glamorize it and "sex it up".

Make her act like she's masturbating.

I hate that voiceover too.  She even gets a little vocal fry in when she says "whenever."  Trying to sound seductive.  Dead

My beloved mother is in her upper 80's, thin & frail, but mentally sharp as a whip. The rate of recovery for her type is extremely low and the Betty Ford Clinic for chocolate addiction thrown her out numerous times. She knows the chocolate secret: White chocolate isn't really chocolate. And her choice for her daily fix are indeed Lindt Truffles. A bag may last a day, possibly two.
The commercial doesn't bother me - it reminds me to check the dining room table and ensure the Lindt truffles are there.

Hate the ad, but the dark chocolate, especially, is delicious!
