    There was one a few years ago where the woman declares, "I don't like using poisonous chemicals in my bathroom!"

    I'm like, you haven't seen my shower, lady, I NEED poisonous chemicals! Very, very poisonous chemicals!

    If you don't wanna watch commercials on TV, every TV does come with something called an "Off" button.
    Or better yet, get rid of it.

    Commercials We Hate

    http://www.slate.com/id/2197146?GT1=38001

    It just struck me as CRAZY, with the Greyhound Bus commercial.

    And might I add....
    Head On: Apply Directly To The Forehead
    Head On: Apply Directly To The Forehead
    Head On: Apply Directly To The Forehead
    UGH,.... SHUT UP!

    alright,do any old timers remember this one? i can't remember the product,maybe it was anacin. a nice little old lady in her late 60's suggest to her daughter who is cooking "Don't you think it needs a little salt?"

    then in one of the greatest acting performances,the daughter whirls around and snaps,snarls really "PLEASE MOTHER I WOULD RATHER DO IT MYSELF!!" she moves her hand to her head in agony and remorse.

    after a couple of the pills all is right.

    Have you seen the commercial for the TrueNorth snacks? It's made from all natural nuts? I SWEAR when the commercial first came out at the end of it the guy would say, "A truly unique NUT SNACK" and I would crack up laughing because it sounded like "nutsack". Now the commercial says, "A truly unique snack". I think maybe people complained about it sounding like "nutsack".

    I hate most commercials for medications, but the ones that bug the SHITE out of me are the incontinence medications...do I REALLY want Robby Benson or Jenny O'Hara shilling 'don't pee!' pills at me?
    That's almost as bad as the fact that Molly Ringwald is reduced to doing voiceovers on paper towel ads.

    The Quizno's commericals with those bizarre little rodent things.

    And the giant Burger King head dude scares me. My friend Holly dreamed she had sex with him. I didn't know if I should laugh at her or cry for her.

    The Extenz commerical and the chick has really strange eyes and blinks a lot.

    Bwahahahaha- *sorry,I tried to resist*
    Ads get to me-I often end up muttering obscenities and flipping of the tv screen.
    Have you noticed the Credit Report dot com baby now has a cast of regulars? What next a sit-com?
    Nahhh, that would never happen.


    Here are two
    1) True Credit- a man is in a restaurant and the waiter thanks him. They talk about identity theft and then the same waiter goes to the man behind the guy and thanks him and uses the same last name as the other guy.
    The waiter is stupid! Wouldn't he at least say "hey,you both have the same names,how weird is that?"
    2) Cholest-Off
    I have seen two ads and at least one of them has actors in it. They try to pull off the 'look at us, we are not fictional characters'
    The first one has a 'couple' who I find annoying and ugly-the wife makes noises that make me want to slap her. Then they dance and swim and offends me further. Then the husband says something about we are one of the few couples we know who still like each other.
    Bit arrogant,aren't you? Gahhhhh.

    Those stupid weight loss supplement commercials for Relacor and Zantrex. Please shut up! No, I don't need Relacor and my damn cortisol is going up from the stress of your bloody ad!

    That Lyrica commercial... for fibromyalgia(pretty much any pharmaceutical commercial-Viagara, Cialis etc)

    RIP Anna but I hated your Trim Spa spots

    Proactiv...that stuff sucks and bleaches the hell out of towels and pillowcases!

    Yes that creepy Burger King guy....

    Mr Alan's(shoe spot from Detroit)....25 or 2 for 50!

    Mr. Alan's!!! OMG! So cheesy and you KNOW that shit fell off the back of a truck somewhere!

    All the Get It Up and I Always Have To Pee and I Need Hair Color For Men ads are so annoying.

    So, I hit fifty, my husband can no longer get it up unless we're sitting in two bathtubs overlooking a mountain sunset but then our romantical moment is ruined because I HAVE TO PEE and he has grey hair.

    *Hee* Nice mash-up=)
    I despise those KY ads for the 2 in one thing- I have said it before and will say it again. I don't want to focus on anyone's genitals much less fictional characters! Make them stop-use another aproach!
    Say the name and just shout 'wow' or something.

    ~A commercial that simulates a stream of pee on a pregnancy test with a movie trailer voice over?! "Without a doubt it's the most sophisticated piece of technology you will ever pee on.."

    Haven't seen it? Check here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqX7VxW3wL0

    ~Binder Binder disability advocates...I don't know about anyone else, but I think its hard to take him seriously with the goofy cowboy hat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQuLEoi_bQI


    I think they also put out ads that say "Nobody intimidates our clients. Nobody!" in a deep ominous voice.

    OMG that commercial is so gross...the whistling/carnival music in the background of those commercials....

    1-800-Call-Sam for this lawyer in Detroit, Sam Bernstein with him, his son or that Robert Vaughn(that actor from Pooty Tang)..who also shills for other ambulance chaser lawyers in commercials. Although, I am partial to Bill Bonds an ex-news anchor(who used to broadcast incoherent from a few too many cocktails lol) who does commercials for Bernstein.

    That's the same one with the chick that blinks too much!

    Yep, he ate corpses and they got it off because he used Enzyte! She's blinking so much because she took her contacts out and there isn't enough tequila in the world!

    I cannot stand those Living Spaces commercial with their title song at the end. It sticks to me. Same for Empire Today and especially the Sit & Sleep.

    Any "Head On" commercial or anything manufactured by them scares me.

    Btw, does anyone know what those commercials are with the guy playing guitar singing about his identity being stolen? I absolutely hate those too!

    Freecreditreport.com The one where he is dressed like a pirate, working in a seafood restaurant or living in his girlfriend's parent's basement? It has been drilled into me head lol

    There's ones that they've been showing for some stock buying company that features a baby. Most of them have been cute ... up until now when in the middle of the commercial, the baby THROWS up!

    I have to change the channel when it comes on now as it literally makes me sick to my stomach!

    I think they also put out ads that say "Nobody intimidates our clients. Nobody!" in a deep ominous voice.

    Binder and Binder or something like that? There are two just as bad or worse:
    One has a bunch of people who keep saying "everybody knows!
    Everybody knows!"

    and also there is this guy who turns into a tiger. There is one of their offices in town. The business car is this big car totally covered(even windows) with a big painting of a tiger.

    Then there is some tax lawyer(ronny deutsh of something) She
    used to poke her index at the camera everytime she said her name:
    "Ronny"(poke) Deutsch(poke) and would poke every word she wanted the viewer to remember.



    FREE CREDIT REPORT:

    The pirate guy also had a GF living in her parents house, and other ones. The newest one is the guy riding his bike.

    I positively Hate that Free Credit Report commercial with that dopey guy singing and playing the guitar with his two buddies. One has him rapping for a new car, another commercial has him dressed as a pirate in a theme restaurant....you know the one I'm talking about? ...Hox, you hate it too I see!. I want to bash that guys face in, I don't know what it is but I want to destroy him in a fight every time that commercial comes on.
    I also cannot stand the GEICO Gecko. (the cavemen are brilliant though).

    Same with David weston and The Scooter Store. Its lame and runs way too much also.

    'a cool covertible or a SUV..'

    Any ad that has people putting fruit in front of their eyes and laughing and acting as if they are oh-so-original(or plates)
    Any ad where people touch their heads together(often after displaying fruit in front of their eyes)
    and close-ups of people for no reason nodding or just staring at you like 'this is meaning ful'
    AND
    Alex Trebeck looking off camera talking to people and saying things like 'I am just like you.'
    and some ads that are puzzling
    Don Diamont or something? He is a star of Young and the Restless(I think)
    He has spent years doing rock bottom cheap ads for a furniture store. Is that the best he can get or is he part owner or related to the owner?

    Ok, speaking of commercials, has anyone else noticed a trend where there's a Really Stupid white guy and next to him is the Really Smart black guy?
    There seems to be a trend of super dopey white men and the cool, classy black guy who sets him straight. (white guy is a moron with his computer, black guy knows all the latest technology and clears up the situation....white idiot has no clue how a television works so the black guy smoothly sets him up with the plasma tv etc.)
    Now, make no mistake, there are tons of idiot white people in the world and smart black ones, I'm just trying to delicately point out that certain commercial trend that kinda bugs me. I hope you can see my point and don't infer a racial commentary, I certainly don't mean to, I just noticed an advertising trend.

    I hate the new JC Penney commercial that is a Breakfast Club rip-off. They even redid the fucking Simple Minds song! Their target audience probably wasn't born until 1992, give me a break! GRRRRRRRRRR!

    Also, everyone in that ad is dressed in the same style- pretty silly.
    I saw a new Activia ad-Jaimie and some 'real person' glowing and
    praising Activia.
    THEN they touch their heads together-GAAA I hate that@!

    I see this trend with the super skinny , beautiful, very smart, wise-crackin' wife rolling her eyes at her doofy, fat dumb ass, slow moving husband. Advertisers lean hard on the concept that most female consumers only just put up with their dim witted bespectacled dumpy men. I hate that. I have two sons. That bugs me.

    Great observation S.D.H. I could not agree more. I too have noticed what you pointed out.

    Nah, the white male bashing in society is just a paranoid conspiracy, it never happens.....uh huh.

    Although I still would like to male bash that guy in the freecreditreport comercials right in the face.
