The Super Bowl ads of 2010 seemed to have a strange common theme running through a few of them: the normal life (of a man) is boring. Thanks TV, for confirming my decision to not live the normal life. I only hope these commercials work to inspire men instead of depress them. Videos below:

Example 1: Super Bowl Dodge Charger Commercial
Moral: Being a man, you must do whatever your girlfriend/wife says (and these will all be things you won’t want to do)… except when it comes to the type of car you drive, which will make everything else bearable.

Example 2: Unilever Dove Super Bowl Commercial
Moral: Being a man, you have a lot of unwanted cultural expectations and responsibilities, but if you live the normal life, once you’re old, you don’t have to care anymore, and then you can use women’s bath products (which are superior to the men’s bath products you’ve had to use your whole life).

Example 3: CareerBuilder.com Casual Friday Super Bowl Commercial
Moral: Casual Fridays in an office job are lame. Get a new job.

Example 4: Google’s Parisian Love Superbowl Commercial
Moral: Finding your true love while studying abroad in Paris is romantic. Wait… you didn’t do something like that? Oh… normal life is boring.

Thank you Superbowl Ads for confirming that normal life is boring. Actually, I agree. See you in Korea. Laaaaaaater.
