I agree with the person that mentioned the talking pothole. Why? IT JUST DOESNT MAKE SENSE.

There are also a few more terrible ones, but I think they are more local.

Every single one has the same line..."We will bring the Vee-hicle to ya"

The two others that aren't online are also car dealer commercials. Sundance, where there is a new one every week that looks like it was shot on a homemade camera and has walkons standing int he background waving the whole time.

The second is a Ford dealership, some CGI dog playing guitar and singing about he is the fix-it hound. Fuck me in the brain now.

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.

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.

The results from the product are always so wonderful, too. Like the hearing aid that looks like a bluetooth--you only overhear people saying complimentary things about you. :roll:

First instinct is the commercials for the Snuggie but I think they were really going for camp because they're just too awful to imagine otherwise.

I've noticed just recently there's a new commercial where everyone is waving their arms and dancing around in their Snuggies. I agree, it's so over the top that it must be on purpose. But it still look likes some religious cult when it shows all those people sitting outside in the stands either watching a game or having a revival. :wtf: :crazy: :eh:

I got away from commerical watching @ home. Don't much watch cable tv. Only thing good on TV is Curb Your Enthusiasm and that's on HBO Canada, commerical free baby.

But the biggest thing that pisses me off is commericals that start off @ the movie theatres. I'm so sick & tired of those Milk, join the army/navy & car commericals. I don't mind watching those Empire Theatre promos they do before the trailers started. But to add another 10 minutes worth of crappy commericals, just before the trailers start, is a pain in the ass. One time our group got up & walked up to the screen screaming ala Homer Simpson "Stop the madness! Start the movie!"

verizon-comcast guys - i think it is for verizon, where they always show up at the same places

the throwing away old minutes woman with her teenage son (not sure what phone company it is) - the one where they are in the car and the kid gives her a look- i want to side swipe her car and take her out.

any Geico commercial

Best Commercials: Beef Jerky Messing with Sasquatch - these are awesomely funny.

I find that look amusing actually.

One that I like: the series of DirectTV commercials with the board room meetings. Dunno why, but that incredibly condescending/a-hole manager guy cracks me up.

"Someone in this room won't be here next week."
*everyone looks panicked*
"It's me, I'll be in Barbados! hahaha! But have fun with that whole DirectTV thing"

I want the freecreditreport.com guy dead. I hate him more than I've ever hated anything in the world. THE FIRST COMMERCIAL WASN'T THAT BAD. It really wasn't. You know the one where they're in their pirate uniforms in the restaurant? Sure it was kinda lame, but it''s nothing to get worked up about.......

But EVERY subsequent commercial after that first one have been total abominations to MUSIC....just raping your eardrums for 30 seconds. My god....there's one where he's riding a bike and he actually spells out the entire word: "F to the R to the E to the E to C to the R............" I want him dead. Not the bassist. Not the drummer. Not the old lady. I want the dude up front. I want to slice him up at the renaissance fair, then I want to run him over with his crappy blue car, and finally I want to take him to the top of the credit rollarcoaster, throw him off, and watch him fall.

And don't even get me started on Jimmy Football.

the dude up front is Eric Violette. I love him. they say you love him or hate him; there's no in between.
he has quite a following.

I know he does. I can't understand why or how. You and I just seem to be opposites. I dislike cats and want Eric Violette dead and you love cats and love Eric Violette.

iluvcats

but we both agree on pearl jam, at least...

I'm friends with eric violette on myspace (his fan page) and his own band's page God against God (or something stupid like that.) Facebook too.

I don't like the Progress lady Flo either. I actually have a friend with a similar (goofy) personality.

I don't care for the male prescriptions (cialis?) where they show the old people touching each other and it's just fake looking acting. One of them shows the old guy on the ground while his woman is in a tire and he's twirling her. That gets you in the mood for sex? They look like 6 year olds on a playground.

just for you ledbetterman10! I think the blond guy with the beard is good looking

EVERY commercial for some ED drug is stupid, whether it's cialis, viagra, or whatever else they've invented. Like, why do the couples sit outside in separate bath tubs? Did I miss something or is that somehow really arousing? :lolno: :yawn:

This is an old one for Viagra but it just makes me think that I'm never going to understand the mysteries of male bonding: :wtf: :think: :problem:

I'm actually relieved that they all get in their cars and drive away at the end!

I like those too! I like when the guy goes, "let's have a blame storming session."

The GEICO ads using the stack of money with eyeballs = Epic Fail

Watching the football game, another one popped up.

Bank of America's Keep the Change program.

You buy something, BOA takes the difference between your purchase price and the next nearest dollar and moves that money from your checking to your savings accout.

They freakin' make it out like they are doing you this huge favor.

What, I don't know how to save my own damn money?

Fuck you, leave the money I put in my checking account in my checking account, if I want a transfer, I'll do it myself. It's not worth the pittance you say you'll match for me to deal with the tons of penny transfers between accounts I have to look at.

This new Gap ad, the holiday one where they're shouting like annoying cheerleaders, is making me insane. It's on every thirty seconds. :evil:

BinFrog

The one on right now "It connected, for free, with education connection!"

First time I saw that commercial and I want to jab my eardrums with a q-tip.

And what the HELL kind of url is 72educationtoday dot com (I won't do them the service of actualy typing their full URL so it is clickable).

Ugh.
