And One I Forgot

Those Kia Soul commercials where the characters are all hamsters? Just awful. What the hell is going on here? The hamsters seem to be implying that my options are to drive a Kia or to drive some kind of appliance. There are hamsters driving in toasters and washing machines and a few just running with a cardboard cutout. And all the hamsters are like bad stereotypes of black people. Way to go, Kia, you just cut your potential buyer pool by being racist jackoffs. This is the type of commercial that makes me want to be sure I never buy the product. That has to be the opposite of what a commercial is designed to do.
