AMV BBDO, those apparently horrible people who Bob Garfield hates for making a Snicker’s commercial that, OMFG, is homophobic, or so he says, have created two commercials for Wrigley’s Extra gum.

In the spots, produced by Biscuit@Independent, couples in love do what couples in love do. They roll down grassy hills while embracing each other and they share a jacket while waiting for the bus. What’s not to love? Bob? Bob?
