"Some things you can never have too much of" like BUBBLES! Soap bubbles! Its spring! Lets play with soap bubbles! More! Yes! Oh.. You were talking about cellphone networks.. with unlimited data! Oh that is like soap bubbles! More! Yes! Please!

Now if we can make my iPhone produce real soap bubbles I'll never have to go inside ever again.

Meet Mama, the lonely woman who dusts off her sons portrait while stiupsin at it. She glares at her phone all day while the crooning singer of the soundtrack waxes poetically about "I tweet all my friends, and facebook all day, but Mama, I'd rather be calling you"

Late at night she gets a call, its her son that needs to be picked up. I don't need to translate her response, I'm sure you all get it - and this is where Hi comes in, they offer a "Hi unlimited" contract with no extra cost for Twitter, Facebook and Whatsapp. And you can still make free calls when your internet bundle is exhausted*. You can select add-ons like free calls and free sms.

And if you phone her a little more often, she might not be so mad at you, son.

Watch this commercial, and then if it doesn't immediately trigger an old memory, go to Google and look for Saturday Night Live's Bad Idea Jeans commercial parody from 1990.

We have a Verizon commercial ripping off an SNL parody commercial that made fun of a Docker's commercial!

Way to stay fresh, Verizon.

Dear officer, is there anything else I can do to get out of this ticket? Well.. gee, when you put it that way. Sure.

The pool boy arrives to help clean that dirty, dirty, pool. There are more dirty things around.

So close to bad porn it's almost wrong. We have the really bad editing, rubbish sound, terrible casting of overly-muscular pizza "boy" far too old to hold such a job, and of course the lady who ordered it dressed in nothing but a towel and fuck-me-heels.

Execution in porn-style: deux points. Of course to get to see the real deal you have to sign up for the product.

Wow, that bird is fast!

"Send Reinforcements" features an embattled colonial-era general making a desperate plea to his superiors for backup. He sends off his request via carrier pigeon, hoping that his note will arrive in time. The general has barely turned around when all of a sudden the pigeon is back, response in tow. The spot closes with the general's clever quip, "you're quite the carrier," a nod to Verizon's speedy new service.

Dearie me, it's a pun.

"I love you, ticket-oak."

Not everyone can have a giant creepy ticket-oak in their back yard. Only his guy and those damaged by the brown acid at woodstock.

When you feel unhappy.. you go to happy hour... then you meet Charlie Sheen... and reenact scenes from Platoon with Charlie Sheen. Oh this is a really bad idea, guys, everyone knows that Charlie Sheen is cray cray.

I love the sarcasm here. I love that the long-running sentences manages to pack in both American and European stereotypes with tongue firmly planted in cheek, while name-dropping drool-worthy designer items carefully painting a picture in your mind that corresponds to what's described. I love that the response to a photo-agency brief is a campaign without photos. I love that the Globe and Mail did a special report on this campaign.

Love Films edited together a bunch of flicks for Valentines day to 'sing Bryan Adams "Everything I do". From Ghost rider to ghostbusters, everyone is a sucker today and if you aren't going out, you can stay home and rent some flicks instead.

Look into my eyes, you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart, search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you

Will Arnett does his best Will Arnett.

Watch out people, they will turn us all into .... green octupi?

T-mobile is back, and now they celebrate what Britain goes bonkers for, naturally set to the tune of "Bonkers" by Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden. Britain loves more than just tea, dear. While it feels a little Tango BCT in that it just gets bigger and more, it's still hilarious. Bonkers, even.

The chimps are back. Again.

There seems to be a gold rush lately in making print ads not just print ads, this one turns into a speed-test game on any smartphone where you can challenge your friends and the winner can get a Sonera 4G

There are people out there who ask themselves questions like: "How many praying mantises does it take to power a smartphone?" and funnier still, there are people who set out to find the answer. It only takes an (edited) 90 seconds for a praying mantis on a unicycle, a tarantula on a treadmill, a beetle launched from a cannon, and various other bugs scuttering about a flea circus to charge this Snapdragon smartphone, which is pretty impressive. Several other kinds of bugs in the phone conspire to make sure you never see that mythical 7 hour talktime though, so it evens out.
