More is better than less
because if stuff is not le*deep breath* less there's more less stuff,
then *deep breath* you might want to have some more.
But then, your parents won't let you because there's only a little.
If you really like something, you'll want more of it.
We want more,
We want more,

Like, *deep breath* you really like it,
ya want more.

I follow you kid. But not really. STOP SHOWING THIS f**kING COMMERCIAL PLEASE THANK YOU!!!!!!!

All these AT&T ads can f**k off. Little kids don't need to be in commercials unless the product has something to do with little kids, like the care.com ads.

Some of the other commercials were cute, others tolerable.

This one makes me wish someone would tape up her mouth and toss her in a closet for an hour or two.

She has the most annoying voice and the whole rant is...UGH!

instant mute or channel change...

Now that I think about it, the one with the kid doing 2 things at once and the guy running the "focus group" saying "That's amazing, hold on, I'm trying to watch this" was pretty funny until I saw it for the 200th time.

That is the first thing I noticed, The pretty young girl gasping for breath , we want more , we want more, But what about the spastic black kid fingering his face. These kids want to get the ATT out of there.

More is better than less is a strategy of our world's tragedy! Turn off the TV and read a good book (even a bad book is better than being part of the audience of life-numbing marketing! )

The first time I saw this commercial, I reflexively answered to myself that more was NOT better. Guess they haven't totally ruined me yet!

My wife and I both like the one with the little girl that talks about the warewolf.
My wife says, I feel like that sometimes. LOL
 
 
 

Adult: So, do you guys think that being fast is better than being slow?


Kids: Yes!!!


Girl: It's better to be fast to not be bitten by a warewolf and then you'll be turned into one

and you'll have to stay in and then you'll have to get shaved because you'll be too hot

and then you're like ara, ra, ra, ra, ra which means, I wish I was back to a human.


Adult: Um what?

 
For me, I like the Um what part, because I know we've had conversations like that before.  LOL

I think the little girl gasping for breath is kind of funny and true to real life.
I remember being a kid.  Your lungs are so small that you can't say long sentences without sucking wind in the middle of them. Very true. LOL

Children should be seen, not heard.

Except I kind of don't want to see too much of them either...

I like the focus group ones, pretty damn funny everytime I see the Werewolf, the two things at once kid, and the driveway versus a stadium conversations.

So does anyone else think the guy running the focus ads is one of the voice actors on the Simpsons--his humor and voice seem oddly familiar.

Actually, I had a wonderful parent.

No, I don't hate children. I just hate what society has done to them.

Children have to be treated like little adults now. You can't smack them, you can't discipline them, you can't criticise them..if you don't treat your child's hideous macaroni art like the greatest thing since Warhol, CPS comes over to murder you and protect "the little innocents."

Children behaved better when a hickory switch was the response for bad deeds. And now-a-days, you can't even flick a kid in the nose without being a child abuser.

My biggest problem is they way young black males come off in these commercials. Not to put too fine a point on it, but they look like idiots. One sits and slaps himself in the face, another can't figure out that animals on candy island would be made of candy (and sits on his hands chomping at the bit waiting to very poorly act out his line) and yet another thinks that nicky rhymes with flash.

I was blessed with 2 wonderful parents. When I was born they had already raised 2 children to adulthood so they knew what they were doing. I was physically disciplined but never injured. I have 3 Grandchildren 4 (boy), 11, and 13 (girls) y/o. If you give in to a child/juvenile you will never regain control. When the younger Granddaughter was 4 or 5 we were at her sister's gymnastics practice. She insisted on rocking an empty chair back and forth. After 3 times telling her to stop I (lightly) slapped her hands. When her Mother came to pick her up she stated "Mommy, Grampa slapped me"! Her Mother's response was: (" Then I,m sure you had it coming".) Good parenting.

I just don't want any more of this line of commercials.
I'm NOT about to consider AT&T - know them too well.
I don't give a damned what they want.

Uh, 90% of parents are already spanking their kids. It's not really working if people keep complaining about how bad kids are. Kids, as much as it annoys me get loud and scream and act up and it's not a bad thing to teach them NOT to do that without hitting them with sticks. I see adults behaving worse. Should I hit them?

I find myself watching these, not really getting bugged, more interested in the dynamic. The guy seems to be more interested in what the boys say or do.
That said, I've seen the bunch maybe a total of 100 times, but I didn't realize what the product was until just now. Something from AT & T, still not sure what. I assume phone service?

These commercials have absolutely nothing to do with cell phone service, the kids are,so annoying that I lose sight of what they are selling. And the guy interviewing them, something seems off about him......

"We want more" should be their slogan given the way they keep on raising their rates.
