I have to admit Apple's new switch ads annoy the piss out of me.  They 
just seem so "acted"... Meaning the person on screen knows so little 
about computing that their choice of words to describe their experience 
makes me cringe.  Especially the guy who says he was a former IT 
manager.... ouch...things floating around his hard 
drive....ouch......AAAGH  It doesn't help that my girlfriend thinks he 
looks a bit like me.
