Why do i find the Matthew McConaughey/Lincoln car commercials so unsettling?

Question

Typically i don t pay too much attention to celebrity endorsements one way or the other! But for some reason these particular car commercials featuring Mathew McConaughey really have a strong NEGATIVE effect on me! But this question is not about the commercials themselves per say; instead im trying to comprehend WHY I FIND THESE COMMERCIAL SO OFF PUTTING? Why do i feel so mentally bothered or UNNERVED by these advertisements! I mean commercials are supposed to entice you into buying the advertised product! But even if i could afford to buy a lincoln these commercials totally fail at enticing me into wanting to buy one!

Me too.  He goes over to see friends/relatives...they all think he's the berries!  He plays pool by himself ("ain't I just the thing?") and eventually pisses on the whole lot by escaping in his car...a nice Lincoln.  You drive that car if you're very self-centered.  It caters to that crowd.

Idk But Lincoln had to about burn the car. They couldn't get his "manly smell" out of it. I bet his next contract will stipulate no interior car shots.
