Nailed it. Commercials like these are insulting. The worst offender is the GMC one with the 20-something couple living In what looks like an art museum.

[@Sashazur]

But ad makers know that people don’t want to see reality. They want to see what they want to be, or what they imagine they already are.

[@raychristie3499]

@@Sashazur It’s called ‘aspirational advertising’ and you are absolutely correct. However I find this particular approach condescending, and it comes off tone-deaf to the times (which is the whole point of the sketch). Happy, attractive people in massive, brightly lit homes selling me stuff is fine, it’s these over-the-top adverts that I find ridiculous. What makes it worse is we get these shoved down our throats while trying to watch our favorite shows.. and many (not all) streaming services now have ads, too. I get they are not selling it to me per se, but the point still remains. P.S. I also despise the Peloton ads for the same reason. All of them.

Tbh Lexus is kinda shit as far as luxury brands go

[@JJVernig]

If you need financing of leasing to afford it,,,

[@dHolbach77]

Any car over 15 - 20k is stupid expensive to me. And before you assume, I (we, my girlfriend and I) could literally go out tomorrow and put down a few hundred K in cash on a stupid uber luxury car and still have most of my (our) net worth. One reason I (we) have that amount of money is I (we) don't waste it on material depreciating crap like cars and have always bought econo to mid tier level used. I'm still driving a used 2007 Honda Accord I got soon out of college; more than enough car than I or anyone could ever really need.

Gardner is not a conventional beauty, but in many sketches (like this one) she exudes such an air of confidence, sophistication, and control that she instantly becomes the most appealing female in the room.

The road to middle class poverty is paved with car payments.

[@massey3129]

Why is the middle class so stupid as to think they deserve or need a new car every 3 to 5 years? We buy new and keep min of 10 years and usually 12 to 14. Advertising works. Can't believe it took SNL this long to parody these holiday time car commericials.
