I'm never buying advil again

Who else saw that commercial with the BLACK pharmacy employee having to show the WHITE customer where the advil was. What happened to honesty with race in this country? Tune into TACS tomorrow for 2 straight hours of this.

when TACS first started everyone was complaining about Ant needing a co-host, now he's got one and people are still whining
7 jonesy6969 2016-02-08
I'm not even subscribed.....Joe DeVito is just a funny topic on this sub. My guess is Ant is trying to find a co host who is decent that he doesn't have to pay a lot for. Anyone with a name probably has some hesitations about committing to being his partner.
3 Gym_Norton 2016-02-08
i think he was looking for a hole kind of person that wont talk back to him
1 Jewsus_H_Kike 2016-02-08
Ant needs to either bring Joe Devito on as permanent cohost or not have him on for a while. He's not giving us a chance to get used to him but he's having him on enough for us to get sick of him.

Great point. How about they show a white gentleman helping out an older white lady and when she leaves the store a group of black youths remove her hat. Just like real life. I hope Anthony doesn't let this go tomorrow. I'm only buying generic ibuprofen from now on.

The best thing about Ant and Nick Dips retarded line of thought on this is how annoyed they are because they believe it's done intentionally. Yet they don't seem to give a fuck that black people were being kept off adverts intentionally at one point.
There's racism. There's retarded racism. Then there's two single note fuckheads that feel as if qualifying racism, regardless of how tenuous, is somewhat beneficial and interesting to anyone but themselves.
Maybe falling subscriber numbers will give them a hint...
28 xxmikekxx 2016-02-08
Also - commercials are not art. It's just meant to sell shit.
So when they even go in about the commercials of dumb, incompetent husband & know-it-all wife, guys don't give a fuck & that shit seems to appeal to women (who go shopping). They aren't looking to make a think-piece commentary on modern marriages, they wanna sell dish soap
3 whatisthishere 2016-02-08
Some people do consider commercials art, I think Ricky Gervais said something about it, but who cares about that shit. You're right about the point that they just want to sell stuff. I actually don't really care that Ant, Quinn, Dip, etc complain about it, but at some point you're mirroring the feminists. The beasts on Tumblr typing away about how women/minorites/gays are represented unfairly by advertisements, and the media.
1 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
So if a commercial makes stereotypical jabs at blacks/gays/women, are they allowed to play the "this isn't social commentary, we're just advertisers appealing to our target demo" card? If liberals can be fake-outraged over commercials, so can conservatives.
3 xxmikekxx 2016-02-08
commercials can do whatever they want. I'm sure there have been marketing departments that have done the research that being the brand that takes jabs at minorities & stands up to the pussy liberals in PC culture isn't the best marketing strategy to sell paper towels
-2 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
The marketing departments are being dictated by the double-standard you're perpetuating: 1) The media/SJW crowd can be offended anytime a commercial takes a jab at minorities. 2) Anthony Cumia is out-of-line for mentioning that commercials exclusively take jabs at white males.
4 xxmikekxx 2016-02-08
We were discussing Anthony Cumia because this is a sub about him. If Opie went on the air crying about an ad being offensive to gays & women, we'd be making fun of him & calling him an asshole on here too
0 CelticSabbath 2016-02-08
Exactly. That's why it's annoying and disingenuous. They need to drop the let's-change-the-world narrative of these commercials and the contrived casting, because it's po-faced, patronising and dishonest; these companies are destroying the world, they don't give a shit about diversity, and they know it. And clearly, you know it too. So, excuse us if we wanna mock rubes and object to powerful media entities getting whatever the fuck they want.
1 swarrrm 2016-02-08
👏 👏 👏
1 RELTIH88 2016-02-08
Casting is intentional in everything. Ethnicity, height, weight, gender, hair, looks, acne, but shape,age, etc is all taken into account in casting. It is naive to believe otherwise.
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Who suggested otherwise?
0 RELTIH88 2016-02-08
You did faggot.
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
That's not saying otherwise, that's saying they believe it is, as we are discussing them and them alone. I specifically didn't state whether I believed it or not.

-1 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
You're right. It's just random luck that the white guy plays the retard in almost every commercial, and a minority is the super-genius. It's just a coin flip that unintentionally goes that way 99% of the time.
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
It's not every commercial so stop with this persecution shit. It happens. Who gives a fuck. Why does this impact you to the point where you have to exaggerate to get your point across?
0 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
There's a reason I said "almost every" and "99%". I knew you were going to reflexively say that "it's not EVERY commercial". So lazy, so predictable.
btw "just deal with it" isn't a winning argument.
Edit: I say "99%" because in my 31 years of watching TV, this is the ONLY commercial I've ever seen where a white guy was allowed to make the woman look stupid. Can you provide any others? http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7IiM/ing-us-orange-money-jeans
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
I said that because you don't need to exaggerate. Be honest. It's truthful if you are realistic. Your message holds water. However when you just make shit up, you come across as if you don't actually know what you're saying.
Also, I'm not saying "deal with it". I'm asking why it impacts you, yet you avoid answering that.
Lazy and predictable is making wide stance comments with fictitious exaggerated statistics for the purpose of advancing your own argument as opposed to discussion. Accusing me of this trait is wildly hypocritical.
0 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
I'm not exaggerating. There is only one commercial I can identify where a white male corrected a minority. Please provide further examples if you believe I'm blowing this out of proportion.
Here it is again if you didn't catch my previous edit: http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7IiM/ing-us-orange-money-jeans
-1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Just saw your edit. I'm not American so I can't help with your commercials. Are you 31 or have you been watching tv for 31 years? Big difference. Do you realise that our ability to remember every advert is impossible? Also, ever consider that now that you have these views about white man discrimination in adverts, that you don't have an objective approach? You now purposefully watch with the intention of discovery instead of stumbling upon an occurrence?
0 Patmcpsu 2016-02-08
Wait, you hardly ever watched any TV in America? Stick to topics you actually know something about.
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Well at least you've found your easy way out...
Edit - For the record, the issue isn't that it happens. It's the fact that Ant etc aren't able to understand that they don't seem annoyed at the fact that it intentionally happened to black people in the past. They didn't claim poor intentional behaviour at that point.
-4 biobotX1 2016-02-08
When were black people intentionally kept out of commercials? Im pretty sure it was a long time ago
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Why does "when" matter? The point is it occurred. Regardless of the time frame there have been fucking awful events inflicted on black people. Yet Ant and his gang of mongos seem to be concerned about their appearances on adverts, films etc as he feels using interracial couples to advertise for example is disingenuous and pandering.
-4 biobotX1 2016-02-08
Well im irish we were treated like shit 100 years ago. Where are my reparations? When doesnt matter...right??? Time-frame???

It is related you fucking child. Stop trying to even out the cosmic scoreboard by strategically casting different races and you wont perpetuate stereotypes. Fucking read between the lines you shit. Go fuck yourself im done
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Ah, so you're not fully understanding. I'm not advocating evening out a scoreboard. That's racism. I'm saying that you cannot complain about something being done intentionally (interracial couples on adverts) when there is a history of the opposite (black people intentionally kept off tv), yet only be concerned about one of these occurrences for the fact it is done intentionally.
IT IS THE SAME FUCKING THING.
-17 Wellshiteinabucket 2016-02-08
No stupid. You missed the point. They're right, they're just monotonous and boring about it.

No you dumb fuck, you've missed the point. Regardless of the fact they may be right, they are being hypocritical for the very reasons they believe it to be right. Screw your fucking head on and learn how to understand a basic premise before responding to it.
-4 conchopeterpumper 2016-02-08
No, foreigner trash, you missed the point. You not being from here gives you no clue on how race relations in this country works. Ant and Nick are not excusing whatever may of happend in the past. They are annoyed that it is happening now. Like you said, why should 'when' matter. It shouldn't have happened then and overcompensating for it now is still wrong.
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
"Foreigner trash"... Hahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahaahha!
-2 conchopeterpumper 2016-02-08
Good rebuttal. But I was wondering, if you are not a racist? Why do you not have a black prime minister.
1 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
What does that even mean?? Why does the uk not have a black prime minister? When did I say we aren't racist? What the fuck are you talking about?
-2 conchopeterpumper 2016-02-08
Well then, maybe you should start admonishing people in your own back yard. Instead of preaching to the converted over here. Theres not much we can do about our grandparents views, no matter how much you happen to disagree with them. Thanks.
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
Do you have a brain injury? You've taken a leap from me pointing out what two people do (Ant and Nick Dip), to bizarrely telling me that the country I'm from includes racist people. Yeah, I'm aware... again though, what the fuck is the link to the original point? Nobody ever suggested this isn't a worldwide occurrence.
-2 conchopeterpumper 2016-02-08
I'm pointing out the absurdity of someone who resides in a country that is light years behind America on equality issues. Wasting his time trying to shine spotlights on a couple of guys who don't really have much influence. Instead of trying to actually to help make a difference where he lives. It seems lazy, hippocritical, not to mention heartless.
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
My post pointed out two people. We are discussing these two people. In a subreddit centred around those people. It is about two people. Therefore that is why the spotlight is on them specifically.
Other people discussed it in a more global sense. I didn't. You did. Remember, "foreigner trash"?
Your last sentence doesn't even make sense. You heard it once and thought it would make a good argument closer so tried it here. Unfortunately it doesn't apply to anything we are discussing. Plus, for the record I'm at law school and work for a human rights charity. So yeah, at least trying.
-4 conchopeterpumper 2016-02-08
The post centered around one guy and commercials in America. The latter you know nothing about. You brought up the other guy first. I didn't forget calling you a foreign piece of trash, I stand by it. I also stand by my 'closer' it is original. I do not spit written. And for such a busy student and philanthrapist. You sure do waste a lot of time listening to American radio shows and gossiping about them. I feel sorry in the event that you ever take on any clients. I would rather be represented by Dominic Barbara.
2 Dawgsie 2016-02-08
My post represents the principle, not the specific adverts. How the fuck do you not understand that? All you do is go off on irrelevant tangents and fight some bizarre solo argument with yourself that doesn't relate to the actual original post I made.
As for being a busy student, yeah I am. What's your point? Like most people, I don't listen to O&A anymore, or R&F. I frequent the subreddits as they are fucking funny. Doesn't take much time.

In a way yes. When I applied they pretty much told me to forget it for the Parks and Rec position. A Native American got the job and she couldn't be less interested.
But for the most part I got through with it by laughing (to keep from crying) and even wondered if the artist did that purposely at the request of SJW fags requesting it. As if to pass a hidden message onto me .. that they didn't even notice the missing character.
All kinds of 'Meta' concepts helped me get through it. Also, knowing I will have my revenge, empowering me to fight SJW fags all the more.
