Kirby Posted July 19, 2022 Share #6 Posted July 19, 2022 And while in general the Viking commercials don't bother me, I don't like the scene where the two couples are sitting on the boat, drinking wine and chatting as they pass by Notre Dame Cathedral. Are these people really so bored of travel that they can't even bother to look up at the scenery as they pass by. What could they possibly be discussing over their wine that wouldn't wait for 30 seconds while they notice their surroundings. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it funny that Vikings came in their longboats to rape and pillage and burn and now Viking Longboats bring herds of Americans in "enjoy the culture". Strange....

ChrisL Posted July 19, 2022 Share #13 Posted July 19, 2022 Yeah she annoys me too. There is a longer seldom played longer commercial where the guy is riding a peleton type bike and the instructor says that so she does it to mimic the instructor. It ads some context and makes the line slightly less annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETS GO PELOTON could trigger me to slap someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Runner Posted July 19, 2022 Share #17 Posted July 19, 2022 I think if one of your biggest annoyances today is the woman in the Lexus ad, you have lowered the bar for "first world problems" to a whole new level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You underestimate me. I have room for lots of annoyances in my life and still have room left over for some grudges, peeves, piques and some umbrage, dissatisfaction and a few resentments. And still have room to enjoy a snickerdoodle cookie and tea. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted July 22, 2022 Share #29 Posted July 22, 2022 We watch after it's over so we generally skip the commercials. I've seen that one. I have no idea what it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange.... Four of us toured Paris and the French Riviera together for 9 days in 1998: my cousin Phyllis and I took our mothers, who were close sisters throughout their lives. We did the nighttime boat tour along the Seine River in Paris and the Notre Dame Cathedral was sort of hauntingly lit up. It was a thrill and I made sure I got some video of it, though I wasn't in a good position to get a good shot. Of course, we also went inside during the day and attended a mass at Sacre Coeur up on Montmartre, the city's big hill. Here are some screencaps from the video I shot from the tour boat. Notre Dame is actually on an island in the Seine that was the original site of the city. You can see the Seine River reflecting light in the bottom right: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That the people on the boat could be so clueless as to ignore the Notre Dame Cathedral is, like, inSeine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
