Terracotta?

Has anyone in the UK seen that advert where the bloke is in a burger bar with his girlfriend and she's talking about going back to college? Her plan, she reminds him, means he will have to support her for the next three years (or something), so she must be sure he agrees with her before she goes through with it. But the bloke is so intent on the burger he's eating, he guesses what the appropriate answer might be when the time comes for him to talk (working from the stereotype he has of his girlfriend's usual conversational topics), offering a nervous but hopeful "Terracotta?"

Sometimes I'm like that with the entire world.
