The Inertia

A very rare once in a while, a television commercial comes along that becomes one of those commercials that an entire generation knows and quotes ad-nauseum until finally, ten years have passed and you’re still seeing a car with neon lights on its underbelly and saying “BAAAAAAAAAM!” 

The T-Mobile commercial featuring Alana Blanchard is not one of those commercials. Unlike that old Pop Tarts commercial, T-Mobile’s commercial is so bad, in fact, that I had a hard time convincing myself to bring any attention to it at all. No one should see this. If, by some chance, ten years from now, I hear someone saying “Now I can conduct water missions without fear of a drenched phone,” I will punch myself repeatedly in the face for my small hand in bringing any attention to this to the masses. But here it is, in all its Alana glory. Hang ten, T-Mobile. Hang ten right off a cliff.
