There is no end in sight for this f*cking "It's what you do" concept from Geico.

The ad fails because TARZAN DOESN'T HAVE A CAR.
So what does he need GEICO for...?
Uninsured trees and vines.

Life insurance, for when he beats that bitchy Jane to death with a rock to stop the constant nagging.

GEICO's new vine replacement. In case you hydroplane into a tree.
Perfect.

Okay, I had to laugh at this comment. You got a smirk out of me.
I agree with the above poster about Jane, she is kind of the savior of this commercial. So is the Chimp; his head-shake is subtle, but funny. However, Tarzan, as usual, is a chauvinistic ass.
For the record, their other commercial about that James Bond-type dude, who gets a call from his mother is also funny. "Oblivious-Mom" is a hoot.

I wanted to smack Jane in her nagging face. I'm sick to death of these commercials featuring women with horrible voices nagging at their poor men. I hope Jane ended up getting eaten by a tiger or something. If I were Tarzan, I'd leave her stranded on that tree.

"Tarzan does not know where tarzan go!" I enjoy it when she says that.

I know you have problems with separating sentences correctly, but your problem with rapid or sudden speciation sounds like something you really need to check into.

Well, you know how 'some people' talk about we "spermistakes"?
the formation of new and distinct species in the course of evolution.
Ummm. You might need to double check on some things.....

Another random commercial from the "It's What You Do" library. What's the point of Tarzan for car insurance? I don't have a F-----N CLUE!!
At least I'm not seeing "Dora and Boots Annoying South Pole Explorers" anymore. That was horrific.
------------- Back after a long absence...still hating those commercials. Go away Limu Emu and Doug!

It was funny the first couple of times, but now I want Tarzan to give Jane a little shove on that branch and say "woopsie!"

^indeed...but if Tarzan is really 'King of the Jungle', he would have left Jane with Cheetah . It's a 'Man's World', doncha know.
"...your woman! How much? I want to buy your woman!..."
Here we see Cheetah trying to remind Tarzan that 'Tarzan know where Tarzan go' and that he ought to get going pretty quick as it is time for a little 'monkey business' with Jane, doncha know...think he's tellin' Tarzan about the movie he wants to make in a lttle less than a year, called 'Planet of the Japes', given he & Jane can get to workin' on the script real quick...

I'm surprised some feminist group hasn't lodged a protest over the way Jane is portrayed. Not so much for being bitchy, but for clinging dependently onto Tarzan as he controls the vine.
I'm surprised they aren't demanding that Jane be in control of her own vine, while providing equal and valued input as she and Tarzan work together in harmony to figure out the directions to the waterfall.
I think we can all see how that would make a much better advertisement.
