Saw this ad years ago on one of those "funniest commercials" programs. It's for a regional airline, and I had never seen it run here in LA. It was created by Joel Sedelmaier, who went on to greater fame for his national spots like those for Wendy's and Alaska Airlines. You can see the resemblance in style.

There's a stupid Honda commercial right now with a kid and his parents at a dealer and the kid is about 8 years old and every 2 seconds the commercial is the kid asking "What's this?" to the salesman.
It's an annoying commercial, that's what this is.
