This Xfinity OnDemand ad redefines awful

This Xfinity OnDemand ad is so bad I am going to do this in bullets.

– The satellite dish around the dude's neck – too hyperbolic
– People lifting weights are normally not talking to each other
– And if they are talking to each other, it's probably not about cable
– Using "man up" as an insult in this context does not work.
– The woman at the end, I just can't

So let's see, we have irrelevant situation + awkward jokes + crappy metaphor = horrible ad (times XFINITY)…I'll show myself out.
