| #61 Posted on 20.5.06 1620.28 Reposted on: 20.5.13 1621.42 | I'd have to admit that I think the worst commercial on right now is the Dodge Caliber commercial. I have really gotten into the hockey playoffs here in Carolina but man is that annoying. OLN has decided to play that commercial everytime they go to commercial it seems. At any rate there is an interesting bit on it at cnnsi.com in the hockey blog section. Anyway, nothing that commercial has done has made me want to buy one. Replaying it fifteen times in three hours is not going to change my mind. | SEADAWG

Good times!
The first several dozen times I saw that ad, I thought Levitra was like an arthritis drug that helped him throw the ball. It wasn't until they brought on the cute MILF to talk about her husband's wang that I realized it was a boner pill.
Have you seen this one, I mean have you SEEN this one, that's for a... I dunno, a weight-loss product of some sort... that shows a big ol' close-up of a fat woman's ass in a bathing suit? I must see this 3-4 times a day. Big lumpy, dimpled ass, right up close in the screen there. Ugh. Man, come on. Put that away. I got kids eatin' food in here! | Merc

Not only is it the worst commercial ever, but it has to be the lamest way to say "we're pregnant" that I have ever seen. | Whitebacon

Maybe the ritual "TALKS" that take place between a father and son take place at an A$W for more people than me and my pops. I'm pretty sure it would be at least touching to my dad for it to happen at a place like this. | bash91

It was horrible the first time I saw it and it's gotten worse since then with repetition. Instamute.
The other one that's driving me insane is the ad for 32Venture and their make money with your own home business scheme. The smarmy women who leads off the commercial produces actual nausea in her listeners.

| #67 Posted on 13.6.06 1203.49 Reposted on: 13.6.13 1205.40 | Two new ones for our running list:
1: on the radio, there's a new ad for a bank: switch now, and receive a free iPod. Now, I don't mind that part...it's just that they're singing the ad a la Frank Sinatra. That grates on my nerves, since I loved Sinatra's music.
I don't do business with that bank, and the ad isn't making me want to.
Next ad: for those who watch TBS: the vinyl siding guy. Grrrrrrrr... Oh lordy! Something about him just annoys me.
As a side note, i called up their 1-800 number, and the people on the other end were rude as hell when I asked if they knew of someone who offered the same service in Canada. | R-Dub

I really don't understand that entire ad. First he IS the guy, but then....he ISN'T the guy because he DOES have the insurance? Or the stadium is empty because it's not full of all the people who DO have...what? | Sec19Row53

Just because some insurance company tells you they'll save you money doesn't mean that they're comparing themselves against Kenny's company (I think).

| #80 Posted on 24.8.06 1453.41 Reposted on: 24.8.13 1455.09 | I hate all of those "train to be a medical technician assistant in just 6 short months" ads for the not-quite-colleges that come on during the day.
I dont mind the "Hate your job? Come here & train to do something else!" ones, but I hate the ones where:
Some dude recites a monologue about how much he hated working at the burger joint, so he went to ITT Tech and now "life never looked so sweet" while we watch a montage of him doing EVERYTHING BUT being at work working, or...
2 girls that went to high school together run into each other at a burger joint where one of them is employed. The burger-flipper asks the other one (who is always well-dressed, taller, thinner & prettier) how school is going and/or "How come you always have so much free time & always look so happy?", and the response is always "Oh, I'm already out of school and I work in a doctor's office making awesome money and it only took 4 months. You should totally call now!".
(What exactly is a "Medical Technician"?) |
