Chrismas Commericials...Oy Vey! (END THE INCESSANT ADVERTIZING (part three) )

Yeah I know it's a little late but oh well...any season is good enough to rant about bad christmas commercials.
So let us begin with the Christmas kid who takes pitty on an elderly gentleman shoveling his driveway. Christmas Kid forces his poor father who is in his nice warm house out into the cold and drive him somewhere. He makes the poor father go to a doughnut shop (Tim Hortons) and buy a coffee. He then returns home and hands it it his elderly neighbor shoveling his walk. Awww....give me a break! This nausiating commercial is filled with heart felt moments such as the Christmas Kid asking his father to let him pay for the coffee. "Thanks for the coffee kid but you know what would be really helpfull? If you picked up a shovel and lent a hand before I have a heart attack." Oy!

How about this one...another little Christmas Kid who feels really bad that he is underpriveleged in his suberban house in the nice end of town, and has only the comfort of his large plazama screen tv, the cable that comes with it, his internet and computer in his room, and his three game consoles. His poor upper-middle class family doesn't even have a fire place! How will Santa come and bring him all of the presents that his mother and father bought to add on to this greedy kids list of abundances that he already has? So of course there is only one thing for Mom and Dad to do...go to home hardware and have a custom made fire place built into their house. And how does the little brat show his appreciation to his parents? "Mom, Dad, Santa brought me a fireplace!" The parrents dont even get recognition. You know those parrents didn't have to go to all that trouble. In fact what they should have done was sit the little brat down and tell him plain and simple that there is no Santa Clause. That's what I would have done! I'm not going to go out and by a fireplace just so a kid of mine will continue to believe in Santa Claus. I mean wheres the gratitude? Any present you would buy for your kid ends up being one that Santa brought and you get no credit for the time and effort you spent trying to get it.
