Someone needs to tell them to STFU and knock off all that loud, obnoxious RACKET'n.

I think it's pasta sauce.

^ LOL  Edit: YOU CHANGED THE LETTERS!! 
That's the kind of visual that makes my stomach growl.

From the iSpot page...I see this could also be added to the Super Bowl thread.

Rakuten says it's the shopping site that gives you cash back. But, this Super Bowl LIII ad shows that some people can't seem to figure out how to pronounce the name. The company sets up a machine that rewards people with briefcases of money whenever they correctly say "RACK-uh-ten." It's time to celebrate!

It's a web site. Why would anyone have occasion to say it out loud anyway?

I hate it when they shoot commercials for garage companies at street fairs and use 'Monopoly Money' as award bait.

I see news about the brick and mortar stores closing even more locations as time goes on.  I wouldn't be too pissed if I never saw another commercial from...

Kohl's
JC Penney
Macy's

What are the local cities and towns going to do with all of these open (No Property Tax) spaces?

I say they (add your local jurisdiction) open a place for community drinking, smoking and casual sexual relations. Hey!  21 or over!  Throw some legal gambling in there and I'm ready to invest!
