This is the funniest Ad I have ever seen.

Reminds me of the GOP. Funny, yet the GOP are house wreckers and life wreckers. It is hilarious, yet so much truth there. They wreck everything then want to SELL you something to fix it, like tax cuts for the rich. Trickledown, don't cha know?!



If you want an 'Allstate' to really fix it, then vote Democratic.

I find them very clever.

Seeing the parallel with the GOP is clever too.

It pays to watch it a few times to appreciate his monologue. It’s hilarious all in itself.

Love the cat on the "Roomba Vacuum'.

I love it in the end when 'the cat' is sprawled on the counter and swats everything off.

My Aunt and Uncle had a Siamese named Genghis Khan. Once during prep for Christmas dinner my uncle turned his back after cutting the roast beef. The cat jumped up and swiped a huge slab of beef and took off with it in his mouth. The chase was amusing but my dad ended up getting it back, washing it off and eating it... the beef not the cat.

the addition of Tina Fey will always make it better.

If I didn't already have Allstate I would dump who I had and get them.

I like the "I'm a tailgater tailgating a tailgater to a tailgate," ad the most, I think.

That whole commercial series is a riot.

I especially like your connection to the GOP's "We break it so you can pay to fix it" mantra.

I took care of one once that was named Malice Aforethought. Same kinda guy.

But this actor and all the Mayhem ads are just perfect.

he really get's in touch with his inner cat.

At the end of the commercial, he is holding a food bowl and it has a little kitty head drawing and the name MAYHEM. I need to find one of those for my cat...

A few years ago they put out a few mayhem themed Holiday Songs.

Coworker was building his own home and was barely moved in. Had to leave for a few hours and didn't want the cats roaming around in the unfinished house so he locked all three in the upstairs bathroom.

Somehow a cat turned the water on over the sink, and the stopper was down. Sink overflowed and the water damage went all the way down to the basement. $5000 damage. Nothing like having to file a homeowners insurance claim on a house that isn't even finished yet.

When he came home and opened the bathroom door, a flood of water came out and there were 3 cats hissing at him!
