"All Grown Up"

They grow up so fast.

The infant in this nutty commercial for Jones Coffee Roasters has no time for babyccinos. He wants what mum's having, but she's a responsible parent (boo hiss). He refuses to take no for an answer—he is a baby, after all—but what she says goes, right? Not unless he becomes an adult in the next few seconds somehow.

Before you can say "growth spurt", he skips the terrible twos, et cetera and transforms Hulk-style into a polite but insistent grown-up ("I would like a coffee, mother"). Now that they're, um, equals, what else can the bemused mum do but hand over the goods?

From the moment her little bundle of joy grows his first goatee and gets too big for his pram to the weird and wonderful exchange that follows with mum, the ad has a real Super Bowl energy to it. You can tell the brand from Pasadena, California believes in its coffee—so good, you'll come of age ahead of time to get it... for the most part, (we love how the man-baby wants to eat sand afterwards).

Not to get rid of the taste, of course, but to make the most of those early years perks. Mum may need to have therapy as a result, but she'll never lose sight of her son, at least.
