For the longest period of time I have been meaning to make a topic on this campaign but never got around to it. There is a bunch in this set but IMO these three are the worst.

First of all we have this prize.



Then there is this one supposed to tug at your heartstrings. I get a funny feeling inside when it comes on, but I think it's just nausea.



Finally we have the worst one in the whole series. We have candidates for parents of the year, or considering how old this garbage is, maybe parents of the mid-2010s. Not knowing where your kid is and how they learned to play the piano.

They're basically those old schmaltzy PSA's "From the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" under a different name.

I've seen these ads for decades now. I also know the many billboards for them.

I like to call these ads, the ones that air when no actual advertiser paid during a break.

It's just sappy, dramatized "love thy neighbor, pass it on" drek. Like we're supposed to think about how to handle situations like this.

Never saw the twist on Oliver Twist one. I smiled.

Not that I ever need to see it again. Maybe once.

The other one is brutal.

Maybe that's why she's going.

And who's that driving her? Maybe it's some guy from Craig's List, offering rides. Name's Snake. Gas, grass or ass.
