They then put Miller Light on top of the television, which apparently allows them to watch both. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rsM6vrTEvg The result]] is more absurd than you'd expect.
* One of the early PlayStationVita ads addresses the dilemma of gaming vs. leaving for work with the cross-play option:
--> "It's a problem as old as gaming itself. Stay home and just keep playing, or get to work on time so your coffee-breathed boss doesn't ride like you like a rented scooter."
--> (person stops playing on [=PS3=], continues his game on his Vita while leaving for work) "Who says you have to choose?"
* One Pepsi commercial in the Philippines has one of these. A guy travels down a road and encounters two stalled vehicles. One is owned by a couple of cute cheerleaders. The other belongs to a band, who offer an ice box with the titular product. There comes a dilemma on who will hitch a ride with the guy? The commercial shows '''three''' different options. All of them involve the guy getting the Pepsi.
** One has the guy offer the band his car, then use the cold water of the ice box to get the cheerleaders' van to run again.
** Another is for the cheerleaders to ride inside the car while the band set themselves ''on top of the roof'' (a dangerous choice especially once they encounter a sign bend low enough)
** The third is that all of them lay down on the road and form HELP with their bodies while sharing Pepsi with one another. Near the end of the commercial, a helicopter can be seen.
* An Old El Paso commercial has taken this to MemeticMutation levels: A family is trying to decide whether to have hard or soft tacos. Cue the little girl saying "¿Por que no los dos?" ("Why not both?")
* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJWZrkwFqy8 one Nestea ad]], a young man on vacation [[HeadsOrTails spins an iced tea bottle]] to decide between two activities: a jungle canopy tour with some girls, or kayaking with some guys. [[HeadsTailsEdge The bottle stops halfway in between]], pointing at [[spoiler:a wild-looking jungle man. So he heads off with the jungle man]].
* A commercial for the Xfinity X1 Voice Remote featuring the [[WesternAnimation/DespicableMe Minions]] has two of them arguing over whether to watch soccer or ''TopChef.'' After both minions summon their supporters and prepare for a fight, a third minion shows up and changes the channel to disco, which satisfies all parties involved.
