Video: Commercials That Piss Me Off
This commercial pisses me off every time I see it. These guys are taking advantage of people that are Internet-ignorant, like me dear old Muddah in Florida.
“All Internet providers take you to the same Internet, so why pay more to get there?”
Fuck you.
It ain’t about “getting to” the Internet, it’s about moving around the Internet. Netzero is dial-up shit. This is such a blatant misdirection. I got my Ma calling me up from Florida… “How come you’re paying $70 a month for Internet? I saw the ad that says I can get it for $9.95…Same Internet!”
“But Ma, you don’t understand.”
“I understand sixty extra bucks a month will buy me a lot of wine.”
“okay, Ma…bye.”
“You’d think I’d have taught you how to get a bargain.”
“Yeah, ma, ok, Ma. Talk to you later.”
“Ha! Seventy bucks a month. What’s with those people anyway?”
“I don’t know, Ma.”
“I’m sending you a free month of Netzero.”
“Thanks, Ma, I need a new coaster…”
“Huh?”
