I hate everything about this commercial. I hate the annoying song. I hate the dumb hipster father. I hate the way he drinks with the straw out of the corner of his mouth. I hate that his eyes sort of bug out when he takes a sip. I hate it I hate it. Ugh. 

Also, a question: when he ordered this, do you think he asked, "could you also open the wrapper on the candy bar and leave it partially out of the wrapper on the tray?" 

Here's the ad in question:


And after seeing the full version I'm even more annoyed. Why are you even at the diner if the daughter doesn't want anything? And the wait staff had to go out and buy the graham crackers and marshmallows and chocolate? Why not just go home and do it yourself at that point? I mean can you imagine having the balls to ask the waitress to make you s'mores when they don't even have the ingredients? And did she really have to buy the chocolate syrup? What diner doesn't have chocolate milk readily available? And if you're going to make these things why aren't you using good chocolate or at the very least decent chocolate. 

Ugh. Maybe I overthink these things too much.

Yeah!  It's dark outside too, I guess it's the evening. Who is in charge here?  Make your snotty daughter eat a decent meal. Not some candy-cracker-marshmellow crap fest!  And what about that freaking song, I've heard yhat before!  Angry

I hate hipsters, especially hipster fathers because they are actually reproducing and raising innocent children to be like them.

Snotty daughter is all bummed out because she broke her arm.  Cry

She refuses pancakes and bacon because she wants something sweet and sugary for dinner.  Way to go!  Angry

The song is LINKED BELOW courtesy Jimbo because my link didn't work.

I've seen worse commercials before.

Or commercials that I hated more.

Still, it is kinda stupid and certainly unrealistic.

In the real world the waitress would've just said, "No, we don't carry that. Sorry."

But then I guess this is supposed to be taking place in some quintessentially quaint little all American town where everyone goes out of their way to be kind and warm and helpful and yadda yadda yadda blah blah blah.

Yeah, why is this SOB running the poor waitress ragged.  It's bad enough she's got a sh*t job as it is.  Now she has to deal with Father of the Year?

Because his sweet little Princess Snowflake is extra special and everyone should bend over backwards to make her happy.  Why didn't Daddy Douchebag just go home and make the kid s'mores?

My question is how did her arm get injured to begin with?

Did daddy get angry drunk again, grab her arm and jerk her around too hard? Now he's trying to make up for it by going out of his way to make sure she gets her favorite treat?

I think DCF needs to investigate him!!!

Yeah me too. This one isn't overwhelmingly awful like a Flo or JG Wentworth or Liberty Mutual commercial but all the little things add up to make me want to claw my eyes and ears out.

The 'Hershey Squirts Diner' and 'Salad Shooter Bar'.

We were on a weekend trip, it may have been to the UP of Michigan (Iron Mountain) or it might have been west of here to the border with Minnesota...anyway!  We were at an Outback Steakhouse and I asked for milk with my meal.  It this really that strange? I believe they sent someone out to buy a gallon of milk because they made a big deal out of bringing the whole gallon out to our table to pour it for me.  I was almost pissed off.

I'd think I'd rather stab ice picks in my ears, than listen to that damn "song". That's the worst part of the ad!

Same here. If there's a part of it I really hate, it's the cutesy hipster douchebag music.

I hate that cutesy hipster douchebag sh*t!!!!

Sounds like hipster music mixed with WWII Andrews Sisters type crap. I hate that music. The diner patrons will be sh*tting out rivets (Rosie the Riveter) after eating those smore things with the bing bing bop a lop a boo boo sing song poop music.

See I actually like 40s music. It reminds me of driving with my grandparents years ago. I actually think that's what bugs me about this song; it's a modern song that's attempting to sound like a 40s song. That's just weird. Clearly pandering to the hipster crowd.

The song is

OMG! leave it loser generation hipster to produce loose meat sh*t music like this. Who knew this POS is an actual song by an actual group. The should change the name of this group to the hipster fudge packers.

If this turd ever becomes a mega-hit (God Forbid) it would make most hated song lists like Don't Worry Be Happy.
