Pick an ad, almost any ad.

LOL I hate that one too. Great to know it's a national spot. I want to know who got paid $475947593 for that ad campaign.

LixyChick 09-15-2006 04:53 AM

Erectial Dysfunction commercials!

We joke now and ask..."Just how many dysfunctional reptiles can there be in the world"?

AARRRRGGGG! I hate that one, too! I either mute it or turn channels I'm so sick of it. There's also one about a guy wanting to go into business for himself and his current "boss" (I guess) is telling him he can't do it. I don't even know what they're advertising ... it disgusts me so much I turn channels rather than watch it. :mad:

WildIrish 09-15-2006 08:03 AM

That commercial where the "fungus" lifts up the toenail & crawls underneath. Man that freaks me out! We always scream "change it...CHANGE IT!!!" :eew:

scotzoidman 09-15-2006 08:56 AM

All of the above





Oh, & a (I think) local ad for a furniture warehouse store with a CGI cartoon character that looks like Bill Clinton's dumbass clone...do they actually think this is a great selling point?


Then there's the Empire Carpet ad...announcer sounds like he's in final stage throat cancer, then they make my skin crawl even more with the 40's style "Android Sisters" musical jingle...

Aqua 09-15-2006 11:42 AM

The only one of those I have heard of are the Empire Carpet ads... 'Android Sisters'... LOL @ Scotz :rofl:

Oh, and I have seen the fungus under the toenail one. Yuck.

wyndhy 09-15-2006 01:12 PM

i saw a new one.

the woman is just about to say ‘head on, apply it directly to the forehead!’ in her annoyingly repetitive and chipper voice, and this guy cuts in and says ‘i hate your commercial! but i LOVE your product.’

made me lmfao.

Double Hey! from me

I think the Mucinex commercials are gross

and there is an advert in the UK for the Punto Grande car that destroyed a Marilyn Manson song that I actually like.

WildIrish 10-20-2006 07:58 AM

I'm starting to get a little tired of that "Get Flushed" commercial...or whatever movie that is. :rolleyes:

scotzoidman 10-20-2006 11:15 AM

I've about had it with the dorkmeisters in the vehix.com ads...talk about milking an idea dry...

Mae 10-20-2006 05:40 PM

Just about all of the used (pardon me "pre-owned") car commercials. The guy yells and exhorts you to BUY NOW! Which brings to mind the infomercials of "BUT WAIT..." fame. :curse:


***Forgot to mention Billy Mays of Oxyclean and Orange Glo and......

I recall someone suggesting, comedically, that the car ads all have an announcer shouting at us, while flashing huge numbers on the screen to make sure we got the message...which seems to indicate that dealers want to sell cars to people that are nearly blind AND hard of hearing as well... :yikes:

:thumb: yeh, I can't stand that blithering loudmouth Hays either...

dicksbro 10-21-2006 03:51 AM

After reading all these, I must agree ... all of the above. :(

scotzoidman 09-01-2007 09:53 PM

New addition, all pharma ads in general...as Bill Mohr says, "If you have to ask you dr for drugs, isn't he just a dealer?"

Specifically, the one ad that says, "Tell your doctor if you have advanced liver disease..."


Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoa...I expect my doctor to tell me if I have liver disease...

It's in Canada, too. :(

There's a Toronto ad for Oliver's jewelers. The guy appears in annoying outfits, etc. acting like a car salesman. He buys and sells. He even says he'll buy your gold teeth. WTF?

Ha! I found a spoof of his commercial on youtube:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=lD3YfF4N2jQ

He references the gold teeth around 00:30

Doomsday 09-03-2007 10:54 AM

Eh? Those Pepto Commercials annoy me greatly... it's not so much the jingle as the stupid annoying dance they do as singing it.

wyndhy 09-04-2007 08:53 AM

i've been seeing a commercial for some diet pill lately - "eat all you want and still lose weight! if it wasn't true, we couldn't say it on tv!"

WTF? since when?

We have a guy like that here in CT. Good Ol' Tom.

And I don't care if yours was a spoof...that bit about the teeth creeped me out! lmao

dicksbro 09-05-2007 05:58 AM

Political commercials of any kind (and by any candidate).

In the actual ad, Oliver tells you to bring in your teeth! My friend was watching with me and said, "How is that legal?"

Yesterday, Ellen read a viewer's email asking if she could stop the Empire Carpet commercials from airing during her show. Ellen then sang the jingle. LOL

Doomsday 09-05-2007 10:43 AM

538-2300. EMPIRE. Empire today.

So annoying.... though those new Geico Commercials involving classic TV characters (like the Flintstones, and the Beverly Hillbillies) are starting to get on my nerve as well.

What's getting on my absolute last nerve though (besides me cold), is myself.

I have to go with Always commercials. Have a happy period? Who the fuck are they kidding?

This one has been playing here now.

smithy020 09-05-2007 02:50 PM

We had a jingle/ad for a thing in my work that plays on the hour every hour, between 9am-9pm. it was for a great scot awards thingy and on my god that got on my tits

wyndhy 09-05-2007 02:51 PM

and doesn't it make you want to bash your tv to smithereens with a sledgehammer? ^^

On a similar note, mrs zoid always rolls her eyes when she hears,
"After your period...Rephresh...

After intercourse...Rephresh..."


more things that make you go :eew:

Steph 09-07-2007 08:57 AM

And do you guys have annoying commercials about insurance?

"Honey, Todd just got life insurance!"

OR

Her: What's wrong, sweetheart?

Him: I was just refused life insurance.

She then goes on to tell him about a company that will insure him even though he's 700 years old and in ill health.

Needless to say, the production quality of such commercials is not high.

wyndhy 09-07-2007 11:00 AM

ours are usually promoted by washed up actors or spry looking 70-somethings sipping coffee

Mae 09-07-2007 04:49 PM

Billy Mays. Although I have to admire his enthusiasm.
