It's about a brother and sister being happy to see each other at Christmas after he comes home from some volunteer thing overseas. For some reason, people have been shipping them as a brother/sister incest pairing. There's legit porn fan fiction about this one commercial, it's super weird

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 49 points 9 months ago

It's the direction of the commercial. The editing, the long drawn out eye contact, the lack of family likeness. The director shot it like a romance.

It's because the commercial looked very "more than brother and sister" during the commercial. It was pretty abnormal behavior.

I was fully prepared to think people were overreacting, but it really is bizarre. The cherry on the cake is the brother's lip bite toward the end. He must already know his sister adores him, right? So WTF is he getting all bashful when she expresses that? I can easily imagine the excitement depicted here in myself when I see my distant siblings. I can also easily imagine knocking on my sister's door, and then joking I must have the wrong house, but it didn't seem like it was a joke for him - it seemed like genuine surprise that his sister is all grown up to the point he didn't recognize her. Shit is weird. But fuck, the lip bite?! I know I'm not everybody, but I feel like a more normal response to a sibling expressing "you're my present this year", would be like, "awwwww" and a hug. It sure was fuck isn't a lip bite.

FUCKING. BIZARRE.

All because some ad exec wanted to produce his own wank material.

Brothers and sisters don't look at each other like that, brother 😅

There's also a SNL skit about it. Their parents walk in and they are furious.

"Weird." Any and every porn now seems to have an incest angle to it.
