I can tell the repetition is going to wear on me.  All the scenes are funny at first, but over and over and over again?
You're just jealous 'cause the voices only talk to me--and Yutolia!

I like the punching small animal part...but only because I work in customer service...
Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.

Whoa, flashbacks <unpleasant>.

It was time! BTW I think I was in that commercial, without knowing it.
 
Considering the state of unemployment in the U.S. at this time, I'm surprised they feel the need to advertise, period.
 
However, this is a good ad.
 
I hope they do away with the repetition, for the shortened keeper-version, post SuperBowl.

I gotta admit the punching the koala part had me laughing my ass off although the commercial did seem to drag on a bit.

I LOVED IT....thought they were talking about me....I first viewed this on line over the weekend at a SPIKE website....when they got to the part...do you sometimes cry...that did it for me.....YES....I would love a new job, but been at this one too long to leave...but loved the commercial cause it hits a lot of people's sentiments about their job.....oh and the part about driving in to work and screaming was a hoot as well...(don't know if I like the dolphins crashing through the waves part...perhaps playing ball with one would be sufficient for moi...Wink)

plop plop fizz fizz oh what a relief it is..............

Yeah, the commercial was pretty good but they didn't need to keep repeating it.

I didn't think it was ever going to end.  It was slightly humorous at first, but then just dragged on and on and on.

i love the guy drinking the puree'd gold. if you had lots of money, it's probably the last thing you'd do.

it's like Homer Simpson imagining himself rich, so he dreams that he's 50 feet tall and made of gold. has nothing to do with being wealthy, but funny.
Robots may strike at any time, and when they grab you with those metal claws, you can't break free. Because they're made of metal. And robots are strong.

It was an interesting idea, but tipped the annoying scale a little too much for me. Mainly that ladies annoying screaming and the chick riding on a sea creature.

I know I'm in the minority here on this one. I hated it from the first time I saw it. Too repetitive and annoying as hell, and I hate the bloke in his knickers whilst sitting at his desk (bloody disgusting!)
