It is totally depressing and enough to make you just turn the TV off. I’d much rather watch ads about summer’s eve and yeast infection or x boxes.
I’m sick of it and I let Comcast know about it.

As long as I don’t get a continuous stream of Summer’s Eve and Yeast Infection commercials just because I’m a chick, I’ll be fine. Those are especially pleasant, along with the Herpes commercials, right at dinner time. :D
