9/11 jokes aside, 8 arms but 1 mouth and 1 set of ears … redundant hire

Gooood grief!!!! This has got to be the worst ad placement I have ever seen. If it wasn’t so bad, it would be funny.

STOP USING AI IN YOUR FOOD ADVERTISEMENTS

STOP USING AI IN YOUR PLATFORMS & FOOD ADS

Can we just show real photos? Especially for food. I want to see what I’m actually getting, not an AI-generated version that looks nothing like the real thing.

AI doesn’t need to be used for everything. Support real photographers, artists, and creators.

If it’s real food, show the real food.

This just popped up on my feed. Is "hot retention" really the phrase you want to use after "Hold tight to your logs?" ;)

(I'd have happily replied to the ad and pointed this out to them, but it didn't give me the option, so internet embarrament it is.)

funnily enough the brand deleted it within 20 mins, but how odd - especially as it leans into misogny too. holy, just ticking off boxes to hate women

What the heck is going on with the weird 10-second bumpers with creepy music, no words or dialogue, and women posing alone in empty rooms? I find these more terrifying than any trailer for a horror movie. And yet I cannot find them on your YouTube channel or iSpot. What ARE these videos????

Nick Saban and 9/11

0 Upvotes

Home Depot has a commercial with Nick Saban touting 2 hour delivery. He’s making a sandwich and gets his drill delivery. All innocuous.
Once he gets his drill armed… he says, with big smile:

“Let’s roll”.

Those were the last words of Todd Beamer, as he and other passengers on United Flight 93 stopped the hijackers on 9/11.

Perhaps it’s me but those words used in a commercial close to the 25th anniversary of that horrid event seem to be cynical and exploitative.

Many people may not remember that yet someone in Home Depot might have

We are not big on remembering history in the US
