The reason to do animation is caricature. Good caricature picks out the essense of the statement and removes everything else.... – Brad Bird, writer and director, The Incredibles (The Incredibles DVD, behind the scenes, character design)

.NET commercials annoy me

You know that commercial where the guy sitting at his computer orders all kinds of stuff from around the world, getting multiple bids for stuff from different manufacturers, and a pretty co-worker shows up and asks if they have a lightbulb, but they "Can't do one" lightbulb?

And the commercial says ".NET keeps you connected. .NET for the agile business." or some such crap. All of this has nothing to do with .NET technology (maybe you can argue that this involves "web services", but that isn't unique to .NET anyway). So I'm pissed at Microsoft for pandering to me.
