People in the general public, especially those with existing criminal records, often do stupid, dangerous things. There’s only so much I, as a citizen, can do about that. But if an organization that is designed to serve and protect me using my tax dollars also does stupid, dangerous things, that’s a problem I can and…

I’m willing to trade some stolen cars not being recovered for less bystanders being killed.

Yes. They are actors playing roles. They are not actually related. That was my point. You can think “those actors have chemistry” or “wait...aren’t they supposed to be brother and sister?” rather than thinking, “That brother and sister are fucking. That’s hot.” Or you could only be half paying attention to the ad,…

But what I’m saying it that it wasn’t a few people. It was a lot of people. And not because they have “dirty minds.” There are unintentional romantic vibes to the commercial that lots of people picked up. As we’ve only known the characters as brother and sister for maybe ten seconds before those romantic vibes appear…

Sure. But the article also mentions that many people did have the thought independently before finding others who had the same thought on the internet. I don’t see why you find that so hard to believe.

Nah... It’s not an internet creation. Lots of people had the thought independently.

That and the way it’s cut. The insert shots of them looking bashfully at each other were a bad choice. Or a great one, depending your perspective.

It’s the part where they look at each other towards the end that makes it weird. He looks down in a bashful way that makes it seem romantic.

Upon further research, they updated the commercial slightly in 1995. So technically the video title is correct.

It’s crazy how long that one and the Honey Nut Cheerios A Christmas Carol ad ran. They premiered when I was a child and I swear they were still running 30 years later. I assume I’d still see them if I watched children’s TV.

You know... Like you do.

I thought we all agreed that the best Christmas commercial was the incest coffee ad.

You’re not selling me on this.

That’s a good example.

Don’t forget the constant “these properties take place in the same universe” theories. Usually because they’re by the same creators and those creators include easter eggs alluding to their other work. Instead of just treating it as a fun thing, it has to be some grand connection that will never come to fruition.

Would also be nice if it were in order of how many times they’ve hosted or when they joined the club rather than alphabetical. 

does it make sense that materials have weight and your cargo bay has a max capacity? sure but why do my outposts also have a max capacity? making it incredibly difficult to actually make use of those materials?

It’s a slideshow now. :(

Unlike clothing stores, most buy one, get one free grocery deals work still if you only buy one.
