State Farm Insurance commercial

There are a series of State Farm commercials featuring a man who keeps having accidents with his car, but who switched from State Farm to one of those "All it takes is 15 minutes to sign up" guys. Yet it takes them more than 15 minutes to get back to him.

SO he calls up Jessica and asks stupid questions in a whiny voice.

Well, at least the accident prone driver isn't a woman. That would be a cliche. But instead we've got an effete, balding, whiny white guy.

The commercials are meant to be humorous - he drives his car up a light pole, through the side of a brick building, and so on.

But you have to wonder...why didn't he switch back to State Farm after his first accident? Because there are at least 3 different commercials featuring this guy.

And if this guy keeps having accidents, the premiums for everyone goes up... or his premium skyrockets....oh, there's all kinds of problems with these commercials.

But then, like most commercials, I guess we aren't supposed to analyze them, just laugh at the dweeby balding guy for being such a loser. (All bald is cool...balding is dweeby.)
