AT&T Impulse 4G Borrower Ad

Some guy gets the new AT&T Impulse 4G cell phone, and immediately someone at work adheres himself to the guy’s new phone, making his life a living hell of misery with an inability to do his job to boot. And your life can suck like this too, when you get the new Impulse 4G phone from AT&T!

That’s right: everyone will nag you to death to use your phone night and day! You won’t get a moment’s peace, and worse yet, you’ll never be free to do your job, so you’ll probably get fired too! Great, right? Well, all you have to do for all this to be yours is to buy that phone!

Yes, once again we have a commercial that makes it looks like a curse to own the product they’re selling! What a brilliant strategy! Oh, but they say that the phone is cheap enough for the annoying guy to get his own, so that solves that issue, right? Um, not really; actually, many people are out of work right now, and salaries are falling off a lot these days, so probably your annoying friends won’t be able to afford one. And you know what that means: this ad shows what your life will be like if you get that phone (except for the last part, where the annoying guy gets his own)! Great, huh?

I think I’ll get a Jitterbug phone: that way nobody will ever nag me to use it!

Sorry, I can’t find this ad online yet, but you’ll know it when you see it! The guy with the new phone has a guy at work grab the guy’s new phone, and he won’t let it go no matter what, ruining his whole day! Really makes you want to get one, doesn't it?

I've since found this spot on YouTube, and here it is:
