Bad, bad ideas

Mix.fm has the best songs, but the worst community service announcements -_-

Right now there are several of these announcements that get on my nerves...and I just heard two of them in a row. One was a horrible song (probably the singers' fault) about flushing the toilet, and the other was about being careful about playing in water...and guess how they decided to make it? They had a guy come and say "I lost a friend when I was in school. He drowned. ..." And he went on to describe how and ended by telling you to be careful. All this in a wonderfully matter-of-fact tone. What kind of craziness is this?! You lost a friend and you sound like you're telling someone off! At least have the sense to act like you're sad, for goodness' sake!

Oh, and I just recalled another awful song, it goes "why are you so angry with me...", supposedly to support not getting angry and staying zen. What?!! Your advertisement is what's preventing me from being zen!!!
