Bad Dreams

While toiling in my insomnia a few nights ago I ran across this commercial which I had seen a few dozen times before but never actually paid any attention to. Now that I have I can say go fuck yourself Finally Fast.com.

I'm not sure if there is a more annoying commercial out there right now. On second thought, I'm sure there is and I'm glad I haven't seen it. Maybe your product works or maybe it doesn't, I don't know. What I do know is that your marketing department isn't too worried about accuracy.

Notice the first two machines being used in the spot, both Macs, then check for the fine print mere seconds later... "FinallyFast.com is for PC Computers Only". Great, then lets get some fucking PC's on the screen. Your advertising a program for PC's with Macs? I hope someone got fired.

How about that douche bag's haircut, totally different at the beginning from the end. Is his hair spiked up because now his computer is so fast it blows his mind? If so, that might be the single dumbest subtle difference in the history of commercials.

Look, I know a commercial like this isn't supposed to be great but at least try to be somewhat accurate. You couldn't secure two PC's for the filming of this thing? It's a fucking program for PC's!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!!!!!1111!!!!!!!!!! Get your shit together.
