I don't mean like scams or anything like that. I mean what's the ad that has done the worst job as an advertisement? Instead of making you want to buy the product you wanted to avoid it.

The Folger's "coming home" (incest heavily implied) ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhfcWTZeP1k

ok, not an ad. it's a sketch. the incest is the joke, not implied.

This is the actual ad, the video the person above linked cuts periodically between the actual ad and drop-in skit scenes carrying the joke well beyond the point of being funny (imo)

Still some weird undertones there tho

*sketch, as in sketch comedy. not a skit. I'm sorry, I don't want to be pedantic but it drives my neuro-divergent brain crazy. but yeah, that's a gross commercial. have a beautiful day fellow human.
