Very rare for me to even notice a commercial, but I must admit this made me lol (fo' reals yo). Coming to a society near you:

You'll be glad to know they aren't my carrier. But the commercial is still good.

YES! You should hear me when I get "please speak your date of birth" etc. phone prompts. My most frequent use of the c-word by far. I hope they periodically record people and listen to them in focus groups.

I'm of an age where I can remember seeing people with bluetooth earpieces and thinking "What a friggin DOUCHEBAG." I accept that cellular phones exist and that they are now computers and cameras. That is the end of the line for me. Refrigerators got as smart as they needed to be once you stopped having to put ice in them.

A guy at my gym wears some kind of ear piece... I can't tell because he puts a towel over his head the entire time. He looks like Linus (of Snoopy fame) and Snoop Dogg mixed together.
That's obnoxious enough, but he walks around "rapping" bits and pieces of whatever he's listening to. If he walks up from behind, you think he's speaking to you, until it becomes obvious that it's just jibberish. Today I caught...
"Wata' on da flo...(inaudible).... can't do no mo'....(nonsense sound)... hey.hey.uh huh."
I hope that given his lack of peripheral vision from the towel, he'll just get cold-cocked by a barbell.
On a similar note...

Did you all catch the drone dropping the pizza on the floor, then the robot voice saying "PIZZA DELIVERED"?
"Wallet Boy" in the Liberty Mutual Insurance commercials could be the snowflake poster boy.

Man, I was basically born a musician. All my life, the vast majority of my preoccupations have been music related. I DO NOT listen to music if I'm doing anything else. In fact, I loathe most music (I'd venture 95%) and my experiences are generally sullied by the presence of music.
Not much makes the bile rise in my throat like people who are SOOOOO wrapped up in "their music" that they cant pull their heads out of their asses for any length of time.

That has been going on for quite sometime. How do you think those voice interfaces have become so frustrating? Cheap hardware and poor programming combined to give the user the full Star Trek experience... F*** That!!
Give me the Apollo 8 experience and my coffee black in a waxed paper cup with the Ace of Hearts on the bottom.
That's starbucks for you

We were rich people when I was a kid... I know we were because we had the aluminum ice cube trays with the levers you had to pull to dislodge the cubes and remove the seperators, LOL. Anybody remember those?

I remember those. I can still hear the noise made when you cracked them loose.
