21 Comments on Kia Motors and the “Participation Trophy”
I saw that one this afternoon and said “YESSS!”
And they correctly picked a black actor to do it..
A white guy would have been ignored.
Must be a closet conservative or two at their ad agency!
BOOM!!! That is how it’s done. And to the “outraged” media libs and academics that’ll scream demands to Kia over this:
The correct response is, “Go F yourself.”
It’s still a Kia.
I like it! But I’m just gonna guess that this ad will never run on msnbc and only on selected shows like that Tim Allen show that is wildly popular. They probably have an equally liberal ad that runs on the shows like the old Jon Stewart show with that lame idiot Trevor Boring or whatever his name is.
In that ad, they probably have a boy in a dress picking out baby trees to plant to make Earth cold again while a polar bar smiles in the background.
That should be polar “bear”, but I do like the idea of a place called “Polar Bar”, cold beer and waitress that are obviously chilly!
Not the point. Doesn’t matter.
This is Moe tom.
Great ad.

I saw the tail end of that last night and wondered if I just saw what I just saw. It turns out I did. That’s great!
Didn’t a famous sports star return his kid’s “participant” trophies
to the school recently? Who was he?
Let’s see, he was about 6 when he got his first participation trophy.
He’s soon going to be 16. He tried to throw it out a couple times, I quietly put it back on his dresser.
10+ freaking years this crap has been going on! But at least he knows it’s all bullshit and fags with their unicorns shitting rainbows, I think.
Lifelong Chevy lover, owner of Corvettes, Camaros, trucks, hell, even a Cavalier wagon, which was a damn good car, and several Pontiacs. Still have 2 old Corvettes out of nostalgia, but our family cars are both Kias. Since 2009? Fuck GM.
It’s been a while since my children received trophies. There were trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. All others received the participant trophy’s (that I tossed in the trash can). Does everyone now just get participant trophies? Even 1st place?
Or did each team win every game and no team lost any game?
I remember at the time my children were playing, about 20 years ago, that some people in Massachusetts no long wanted to keep score at their kids soccer games so that none of the little flowers would feel bad.
Hey how about those Amazing Mets?
Send Barry a “Also Served as President” trophy, because he sure didn’t win any prizes as CIC
Sure he did – have you forgotten the Nobel “He’s not George Bush” prize…?
😉
Awesome commercial. Koreans are a successful, competitive society. I don’t blame them, applaud them.
0bama will be the only double prize winner in Presidential history…….
0bama will be a Nobel Prize and a convicted War Criminal at the same time.
