A new commercial for Extended Stay Hotels shows a bunch of people farting in an effort to show how comfortable their hotels make you feel. Now these aren’t just your average farts. We’re talking about farts so powerful they can close a washing machine door. Some lady even blows out a candle. Cool stuff, but I’m not so sure this makes me want to stay at Extended Stay Hotels.

Just when you thought they couldn’t get any weirder, Seinfeld and Gates release their second commercial. This one titled, “New Family”. At 4.5 minutes long, the ads come off more as a really bad web series than a viral commercial.

A Parody of the intense, energy driven Gatorade commercials. Gatorade has always boasted about their electrolytes, but sometimes when you watch their commercials you wonder if there’s something else they’re putting in their drink with all that profuse sweating, hyperventilating, and manic behavior.

STYLE BUZZ: Being shown only in France, the print ads and TV commercials for the denim company’s campaign, “We Are Animals,” are being called misogynistic and obnoxious. Hey, you know what they say: nothing sells a pair of jeans like implied rape.

CULTURE BUZZ: Their sketch show on the BBC, That Mitchell And Webb Look, have earned them hardcore fans on both sides of the pond. Monty Python has found a welcome replacement in the cleverly absurd blokes who, incidentally, also star in the UK version of the Mac-vs.-PC ads. Bloody brilliant! (Also be sure to check out Peep Show, another Mitchell and Webb show we highly recommend.)
