[Rant] The Geico Pig Goes Weee Weee Weee All The Way Home

The first few times I saw it, I thought it was funny. In fact, it took about 2 or 3 times to view the commercial to gain full appreciation of it - and realize that it was a Geico commercial

Problem #1 - some commercials are too good, or too cute for the product to be recognized - this one commits that error.

Problem #2 - in order to fix Problem #1, Geico is making sure that we see this commercial, with that whiney freaking pig so many times that I'm considering purchasing extra ham products just to make sure that the little porker will never EVER be able to "WEEEEE" again.

It's got to be better than the ex-drill sergeant therapist...

Gunny the psychotherapist gets the job done. None of this mambie-pambie psychobabble.

Definitely better than the caveman & the stack of money! The gecko is about tolerable!

A minor nit about that is the Marines have drill instructors, not drill sergeants, AFAIK.

The other thing is whenever a show calls a Marine an ex-Marine. There is no such thing as an ex-Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine.

Agreed I hate the insurance commercials in general because they all have some annoying gimmick to buy their insurance.

Well good customer service, picking up the phone when you call your agent (Or returning your call), and not dropping you on the first fender bender would be a few you could add to that list
