Children of the '80s and '90s pretty much learned everything they need to know from TV. (It was basically like a third parent.) Besides "very special" sitcom episodes, one of the major ways we learned about how to say no to drugs and avoid "stranger danger" was from public service announcements.

Hey guys, just a friendly reminder that that gorgeously animated ad from Chipotle was still an ad, courtesy of this send-up from Funny or Die. Once you get past the whole "person trying to sing like Fiona Apple" thing (It's not happening...

We don't know who is behind the sudden trend of laugh-out-loud Kmart ads, but we say keep 'em coming!

Surely you've seen this ad from Dove, in which a forensic sketch artist draws women as they describe themselves, then as other women describe them, then everybody starts crying? If not, it's here for the watching, just to give you some context before we settle in to what this is really all about -- making fun of that ad.

Looks like it's time for that E-Trade baby to step aside. Don't get us wrong, talking babies are still cute. But dancing babies? That's a win! Right??

Finally, a reason to ship our pants in public! And to go to Kmart (or K-Mart).

Stick with this one. It's funny enough watching an old man struggle to say "buttery, flaky crust," but this video in its entirety is a comedy masterpiece.

Fortunately, Laina, aka the Overly Attached Girlfriend, has already created a charity campaign, otherwise we would might be inclined to say she is just milking her internet fame. Instead, this Samsung commercial is actually entertaining. It's creepy, too...

Who has two boobs and thinks four boobs are awesome? This chick! (Imagine, if you will, that I'm somehow pointing with my breasts.)

We don't want to ruin this ad, so we're not going to tell you what company it's for, or what it does. We'll only tell you that it's from Sweden and that it's a riff on Apple Store robberies that happen occasionally. Suffice to say it demonstrates that some companies are very much on top of their game...

Hey, remember Will Ferrell's nutty Old Milwaukee ads that were only shown in Iowa? Well, he's back with a new one, and it makes even less sense.

Brad Pitt has made an ... interesting commercial for Chanel No. 5. Did we say "interesting"? We meant "what is going on here?" Conan O'Brien decided to poke a little fun at the ad on his show last night. It's so ridiculous he didn't have to change much to make a joke. See the original below if you don't believe us.
