We’ve all seen this State Farm commercial. A guy keeps saying “never” and the quick cut shows him doing exactly what he said he’d never do.
So what’s up with this ending?

“I am never letting go” That’s him accepting his mule status that negated each single stated want that he had in life. Strong misandric message there.
All hail life in the gynocracy!
Also, he WILL be letting go if his wife stays below a buck fifty and finds a man who makes, oh, 500 more dollars a year. Poof! She’s gone. You’re letting go of your kids and house now, bro!
Fuck that commercial.
He said he was never going to do something, and then did it.
He says he will never let go.
So, if you follow the logic, it means he will be leaving his wife.
Am I old fashioned or naïve or what but I actually sort of like that commercial?
Can’t quite bring myself to be that cynical about it. I see it as it was meant to be seen. I also believe a wife can be persuaded to deliver a blow job.
Now, the other State Farm commercial, where they buy the girl a $150 purse, is another story. Pure fiction.
He’s always intending to do one thing then ends up doing another when the circumstances change. Fortunately, its always the right thing.
But his dedication to his family is unshakeable.
I would expect that when he does finally leave them it will be on his way to his final resting place.
I own a Farmers Insurance agency, so I think the commercial blows. I bet he did not buy any life insurance.
No.
As a young, self-centered kid, he thought avoiding such things would make him happier.
As he grew into the role of a man, he realized the importance of his position.
It’s a wry use of his own words in a different context to show he finally found true happiness.
I agree with Dr. Tar
Being that he always ended up doing the opposite of what he said, he’s going to let go of his family.
The first family almost didn’t get started.

Never say never…
Yep. Chained to a plow year after year, then she gets it ALL and you’re stuck living in the woods.
Right ! He runs off with Jake. He found those khakis to be irresistible.
I married my high school sweetheart. We had four sons during a twenty year marriage. I built our dream home and thought the hard part was behind us, but as the paint was still drying she booted me to the curb. Her reason? She wanted to “find herself”. My sons and I are doing well and she finds herself barely existing in a trailer house in a hellhole town. Such is life!
It sounds to me like the as agency didn’t follow the logic all the way through. The last line should have been either: “I’m getting out of here” (meaning that he’ll never do that) or “I can’t believe this happened to me” With that last one being open to interpretation.
Just my 2c
Pardon me, but if someone hasn’t already stated the obvious. Life happens while you are busy making other plans.
Not to Democrat politicians.
Since when do commercials have logic?

He may be contemplating multiple axe murder. State Farm has a policy to cover that.
Awww come on…….
