Unrestrained all-caps swearing at a television commercial. 

Along with images of a group of fancy primped pomeranians, the text: "There are dogs living better than you. Don't get mad; get E-Trade."

Fuck that.
Fuck the implication that animals shouldn't be treated as well as people.
Fuck the implication that it's "just the way it is" that people are treated worse than animals.
Fuck the people who are willing to treat any living, feeling creature worse than any other.
Fuck the implication that the only way to get better treatment is to give your money to people who already have way more.
Fuck the implication that all it takes to be one of those people-treated-better-than-dogs is to invest in a broken system (and also to be a decently-dressed white male.)
Fuck everyone who could afford to make a better decision but helped create and air the advertisement anyways.
Fuck the people who ordered the advertisement in the first place.
Fuck the exploiters.
Fuck E-Trade.
FUCK CAPITALISM.

@mmsword @ElectricKeet Basically this but instead of Mr. Peanut it was me thinking about Hellshake Yano again.

Unrestrained all-caps swearing at a television commercial. 

@ElectricKeet it’s one of those things where you could think about it and write an itemized list of what’s not cool about this, but can summarize with “kinda mean people exhibiting a kinda mean take on being funny” which in the case of ads is “for a really mean reason.”
