    They are both good, and neither is a true representation of capitalism (as in neither is forcing you buy a product/service like some commercials), but have effectively cut through the 'noise' of advertising to grab you attention, and maybe make you remember the service/product for the future.

    In that respect, they are good commercial advertising.

    I mean look, they got us taking about things for the last few days.. Efficient branding

    Hehe, ok I did see that USPS one but like Ascension it freaked me out a bit.

    The Walmart one still cracks me up because it's so the kind of thing that would happen to me. I'll be thinking, this is going to be great and then things blow up in my face. I guess that's why it makes me laugh so much. Misery loves company
