    The O.G. commercials are the epitome of "fake conversations gone horribly wrong in a commercial".

    I forget what the radio commercial was for, but there was one a few months ago that drove me nuts. Some guy was spouting off about insurance or debt or something, and at one point he's like "Hmm, where is that phone number again? Oh, here it is...The number is 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx". In the background you can hear him shuffling papers as if he really misplaced the phone number. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO incredibly lame.

    The "Brian Kelly" car dealership radio ads are terrible too. Also the epitome of fake conversations.

    its those Progressive auto commercials with the girl in a store for insurance- dumb- I am sure there are tons more and so repetitive. I try to forget.
    I saw an awesome Bud commercial this past weekend while watching the games- funny but can't remember it either- good advertising?? Maybe someone here remembers
    Can't wait for Superbowl Sunday commercials- so creative and fun- must be nice to be in that profession- walk thru life coming up with all these ideas.

    Pandora's correct. The Progressive Insurance chick makes me feel hateful towards humanity.

    As does Jared from Subway. Hey, congrats. You used to be a fat douchebag. Now you're just a douchebag. I hope he chokes to death on a Subway sandwich...cocksmoker.

    There's a local lawyer in our area named Corey B. Trotz. His commercials make me cringe in embarrassment. I'll see if I can round one up somewhere. They are over the top uncomfortable to watch.

    Any product made for TV, where initially they show some over the top, horrible example of some inept person trying to do something like cook pasta, cut a tomato, pick up leaves, etc etc ... then they show how easy their product makes the same task ...

    That initial shot of the ineptitude, drives me bananas.

    Hello, I'm a mac...and I'm a PC


    I used to find them amusing, but now really annoying....actually it is more Justin Long that is annoying.
    And I second that chick who is practicing her crappy dance move to get props from tha other peeps that "serve" others.

    Also, "He went to Jared?" awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww............


    Also the cavemen are way past being amusing and make me want to punch something. Worse when I found out that "let me be myself" was a real song.... I do like the "money" you could be saving with Geico.........GEICO!

    Funny, because I don't even watch too much tv these days
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    I whole-heartedly agree.

    "Gardening used to be back breaking work"

    ...and then they show a guy bending over to pick up a weed or something and he grimaces in pain and grabs his lower back as if that last motion involved someone jabbing him with a pitchfork.

    Ugh.

    I do hate any commercials for any product that claims to be a "diet" product. Hello, just because the soup only has 100 calories doesn't mean you're not still going to be hungry! The playing off of people's insecurities and lack of understanding of physiology bothers me. I recently noticed one commercial about someone "trying to lose weight" but the character in the commercial was anorexic-looking. It makes people think they always have to be trying to lose weight even if they're not fat!
