    White guys are generally stuck playing the dumbass husband in commercials. You know, the guys who couldn't figure out how to put bread on a sandwich without a loving wife to help them out.

    I do find it interesting that "Jake from State Farm" has undergone a race change.

    No one wants to see oppressive, slave owners in commercials.

    It kind of made sense that they wanted an actual actor when the role became bigger. Not sure why they didn’t just change the name.

    I make it a point to pay as little attention to these annoying Intrusions called commercials.

    You haven't noticed that whenever there is a black woman in a commercial she has a white husband/boyfriend?

    Also according to commercials, evidently only black folks drive expensive ass EV's.

    Don’t feel sorry for white guys on TV. All these losers had hot wives:

    King of Queens
    According to Jim
    Modem Family
    Drew Carey
    Everybody Loves Raymond

    White dudes doing alright. I’m sure I left some leveling up off my list.

    Ask yourself which demographic is most desperately averse to spending money these days and you'll have your answer.

    If only My Pillow Guy did his own commercials. What a wasted opportunity.

    Weird, coming from the guy who says liberals bring up race all the time and divide.
