I was minding my own business, and then on my TV, this atrocity started playing and my eyes just couldn’t look away:
There are several douchey things happening in this commercial. Let’s break it down, shall we?
- No one is going to drag their ass to Home Depot in their Porsche. Best believe they are at least taking their Escalade or H2. Additionally, no one is that happy they are going to Home Depot. Yes, I realize it’s the ultimate Man’s Department Store, but even when I step into a JC Penney, I’m not grinning from ear to ear.
- That mom should not be driving a yellow Porsche. The way she is dressed, she needs to be in a Camry. Although picking up kids in a Porsche is highly unlikely in the first place, if it did happen, the mom would be some sexed out cougar, like Brooke Burke or something. She wouldn’t be rocking a blonde bob and a cardigan she just got at Christopher and Banks.
- The only realistic part of this commercial is the “Getaway Car”. Because if I had to slave away at a desk job working 80 hours a week like that guy looks like he does, best believe I’d be getting myself a Porsche. And I can believe the happiness on this guy’s face. Because even though I love what I do, leaving work at the end of the day is the best part of the day, amiright?!
Any other douchey parts I missed? let me know in the comments.

I’d definitely say that home depot part was the worst. That would NEVER happen.
