Commercial Cringe

Occurs when people gather to watch a sporting event or tv show. They watch the show with joy, then the room turns awkward once it cuts to commercials. Either people mindlessly watch the commercials, or they go on their phones.

Jared and Denise were having fun at their super bowl party until they got hit with commercial cringe.

Commercial Menace

A Commercial Menace is a person who isn’t well known internationally and yet too hard to handle for commercial interests alike.

Not even Yoshinori Kanada could become as much of a Commercial Menace as Yasunori Miyazawa.

Commercial Rebel

A Commercial Rebel is someone who rebels against restrictive commercial interests, but is not quite a Commercial Menace in which he or she is still well meaning enough to be seen.

Many a Commercial Rebel, most famously the Studio Break camaraderie, have entered the anime industry during the early 1980s to mid 1990s.

commercial aggression

To get very upset and on edge from watching the same commercial multiple times. In many cases you start to hate the actors in the commercials personally.

I can’t stand watching Hulu anymore, liberty mutual is giving me commercial aggression!
