I am getting so damn sick of this tripe! I hate how a mirror is now subject to the same touchy feely crap humans these days are obsessed with. I'm tired of the music and that goofy looking doctor actor. It's time this commercial goes away now, it's been on for the past year or so. This one either gets muted or the channel changed immediately.

What exactly is the point of a touch screen mirror?

People don't understand pamphlets anymore...it's gotta simulate a smartphone in order for them to get the point.

As a smartphone owner, I still don't see the point of a touchscreen mirror. All smartphones, tablets and laptops have front facing cameras. I would just on my phone and use the front facing camera. The only purpose I see about the touchscreen mirror is taking out my frustration on it when it's my smartphone that's irritating me.

I seriously don't get it either. Just the 'actor portrayal' at the beginning is enough to hate this commercial. He's just a fake and I couldn't care less what he has to say.

He's doing some presentation on a mirror. Has he never heard of a projector where he lives?

"Crestor" would be a good name for a movie villain. "You have angered Crestor! Now you will pay .....with your life!"

That doctor being a villain actually makes sense: he makes people stop in front of what I dubbed the "Asshole Mirror" and force them to look at their fat selves while he stands nearby, silently judging them.

In the first commercial, before the Asshole Mirror had a touchscreen, the large-bodied black guy he accosted with the Mirror had a look on his face as he walked away that just screamed, "Just you wait, I'm gonna beat the sh*t out of you like the red-headed stepchild you are..."
