* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: One ad featured two children who refuse to drink milk, because they believe milk is for babies. They tell their mother that their elderly next-door neighbor, Mr. Miller, never drinks milk. They see him going to use his wheelbarrow when suddenly his arms rip off because, having not consumed milk, his bones are weak and fragile. The children scream in horror and then frighteningly start imbibing every last drop of milk they have. This ad was enough to have ex-California Governer Gray Davis demand that the National Milk Processor Education Program yank it from broadcast.

** This [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82yZVB7IDlE infamous Got Milk Commercial]] where a mother tries to tell her kids to drink their milk, but the kids refused to drink their milk and they stated that their neighbor Mr. Miller never drink any milk. We then zoom in on Mr. Miller and he tries to lift his wheelbarrow, until both of his arms come off. This causes the kids to scream in terror and quickly drink their milks.
** Another commercial involves [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EayEWlELwmg an old lady]] trying to give her cats some milk, but she ends up running out of milk and tries to feed her cats powdered milk instead. But the cats weren't satisfied and they ended up cornering the old lady to the point where they locked the doors and the commercial ends with the old lady having a massive OhCrap look on her face as the cats turn off the lights.
** This [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqIXoxilyL4 commercial]] where a Magician performs at a retirement home and they are celebrating the birthday of an old man. The Magician performs most of his tricks until he does a magic trick where he pours a jug of milk into his hat and makes the milk disappear. This then angers the elderly folks as they start cornering the magician, with an elderly lady telling them to lock the door as they walk menacingly towards the magician.

* HilariousInHindsight: The entirety of the "Aaron Burr" commercial, considering how being interested in Hamilton's history is portrayed as a niche thing, and the ''one'' [[ButtMonkey lucky guy]] who knows the answer to "Who shot Hamilton?" [[{{Irony}} just happened to have a peanut butter toast stuck in his throat]] before he could give the answer. Fast forward to [[Theatre/{{Hamilton}} 2015]], [[NotSoCrazyAnymore and]]...
