> One thing I miss is certain jokes at school/work based on TV commercials.

One commercial I remember was for shampoo for women. The girl who tries it gets a "hello Betty!" from the high school hunk, and she preens.

For a while every Betty in my high school got that treatment :-/

I suppose the commercial didn't actually work, because I have no recollection of what that shampoo was.

We (in NL) had a similar one with a girl on bicycle. "Pam, your hair is dancing" I guess it was Andrelon. Regardless the commercial does not give me a positive connotation to the brand, since commercials don't appear to influence me like that. Perhaps because I am on the spectrum?

Early 90's "Zack the Lego Maniac" ads were fun when you shared a name...

You weren't the target audience.
