Does anyone else HATE the National Guard ads?

The Marine and Navy ones don't bother me at all. But the ones where they insinuate that you are only a REAL man once you have joined up (the one with the old guy asking his son where the handshake and looking him in the eye came from), or the ones that say "its the RESERVES, so i'll stay around here unless they need me" :eyes:

grr. I have zero problems with the reserves, i think it's a great option if you desire, but those commercials just fucking piss me off
