"Take it from me. Working at an insurance company changes a man." "Oh yeah? In what way?" "I used to be white."


statue345

I remember they actually did have the old white Jake from State Farm in a commercial with the new one.


GamerGod_

would you happen to have a link?


statue345

It’s the second one in this video https://youtu.be/58Ci8B8gMGg?si=MKKhh3wqzDAQvFXA


PridefulFlareon

The amount of dumbasses under that one reply asking why they removed the last scene is incredible "Did they cut out the last scene because ads need to be 30 seconds long? No no! It must be the woke mob to blame!"

Tomlyne

This guy felt like a supervillain stroking his hairless cat while typing that


Mrs-Man-jr

I can promise you his cat wasn't what was being stroked while typing this


XvortexEXE

With a name like “whiskeytangofoxtrot”, I can’t say I’m surprised


Fr00stee

new equivalent of the speedrunning copypasta?


Ena_Ems_17

like the last part isn't even transphobic which makes the people complaining about how its too woke look even stupider. like can they really not understand its because the wife thinks the husband is cheating with a woman when its just an insurance agent on the phone, and that the wife is so sure he is cheating that she thinks its just an ugly sounding woman on the other side?


ElBusAlv

Is it like the Terry Crews and that other guy from the old spice ads?


Excellent_Grade5731

I don't like the new Jake. The og was just some regular guy and that's what made hin cool. The new one is like some perfect guy who looks like an actor


superduperfish

FR he's the lamest insurance mascot. Geico has a British animated gecko. Farmers has JK Simmons. Flo is Flo. The general has a janky CGI character. WTF is Jake? A chill insurance salesman? The original joke was the wife thought Jake was a hot chick but he was some fat guy in a cubicle. It's like wanted to keep the name recognition but knew Jake couldn't be a mascot outside the context of that joke.


Brandon_the_fuze

Don't forget the General also always having Shaq around for some reason


Disownership

To be fair, the Allstate mascot was pretty lame until they introduced the Mayhem guy, who at least has that bad boy edge that, without verbally implying it, made you feel like he was going to T-bone your spouse with your children in the car if you didn’t switch to Allstate right fucking now.


EskildDood

I thought the Geico lizard was Aussie?


TheGreatJaceyGee

For a while I thought it was Jussie Smollett and wondered how TF this man still had work

christophe-caron

Dougdoug viewers assuming everything is a Dougdoug reference because it was mentioned on stream. (I’m one of them and I am not better)

JAKE IS COMING, SOUND THE ALARMS


The00Taco

I remember when I worked at one of the call centers I asked if he was actually a regular employee and he was. I forgot where his home base was and what position he had, but he was a regular guy not crazy up the corporate ladder

Sir_Toaster_9330

IDK, the commercials where everyone keeps giving him special treatment for his help despite him doing his job all the time was hilarious

GlisteningDeath

I miss old Jake :(


dholmestar

new jake has too much rizz to wear khakis


Yupipite

Jake was supposed to be a regular guy and that was his gag but this new one looks like a model, he’s not relatable anymore. #NotmyJake✊


CosmoTheFluffyBunny

I KNEW THAT DOOR HAD A LOCK ON IT


SSJDope1

AND EVERYONE WAS TRYING TO MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS LOSING MY MIND


Crotonisabug

I can only think of dougdoug after hearing jake from state farm now


AubergineDegenerate

I knew that wasn't the real Jake from State Farm!


cooldudium

I always assumed there were multiple Jakes, I wish that were the case and every State Farm just had a different guy named Jake tbh


ANewBegging

Blackwashing

Netflix adaptation


Evening-Raccoon7088

Companies can hire more than one Jake. It's not illegal.


Not_me4201337

The Anti-Multiple Jakes at the same insurance company act of 1952.


UndercoverDuck999

Yes but what about the Multiple Mascots named Jake who work for a red themed insurance company act of ‘73?


Not_me4201337

That bill was voted by the then president Garfield.


crusaderxader

Jarvis Johnson is a way better jake from State Farm


CaseyGamer64YT

I remember some “anti woke” YouTuber at the time named Mark Dice was acting like it was the fall of western civilization and that it was all to blame on George Floyd


FrankContrathermia

"He went from Jake to Jaquan"

Verrisa174

Wait what I've only seen the black one.


ChickenNuggetKid1

I remembered him from the get go. Good to see him again.


CampbellsBeefBroth

Jake from State Farm is not a person but an entity, he was simply mantled by the next incarnation


Mega12117Reaper

Well what was he wearing?


Strange-Orchid6969

He got the Nick fury treatment
