You know what i hate?





When some bullshit ginormous conglomerate company can't come up with their own original idea so they use someone else's awesome but obscure music to make it's otherwise mediocre at best commercial seem much cooler then it really is because people only consider it cool in the first place because of it's awesome music. Which in turn the bullshit motherfuckin' company tries to pawn off as it's own because they never pay homage to the original artist themselves during said commercial. Two major offenders i can think of right off the top of my head without even trying to are Viagra's use of Howlin' Wolf's "Smokestack Lightning" and Jeep's Johnny Cash's "God's Gonna Cut You Down". Fuck them, those commercials suck balls and the only descent things about them is the music. Both companies should have more then enough money to produce completely original commercials that don't suck without having to leech off someone else's original art to do so, that's horseshit.
