Updated thread - What TV commercial gets on your nerves?

Right up there when, coming out of commercial, a team will run a play, turn it over, and we get another commercial break. This is the only time I watch college hoops, so pardon me if this sounds like I'm on a conspiracy rant, but it just looks odd.

 

New rule this year. If a team calls timeouts within 30 seconds of a scheduled stoppage (or anytime after if there is no other whistle) it becomes the media timeout. That and reducing the total TOs from five to four have actually done a lot to improve pace and watchability this season.

 

Because ebonics. Ummm. OK. That didn't sound racist at all.

 

Some of them that I remember weren't even in that 30-second window, but I'm glad they made that switch.

 

The Nespresso commercial with George Clooney and Danny DeVito is terrible, and the worst part is when DeVito spits out his soup. I cringe every time I see it.

 

Carvana.
That definitely sucks.
Fuck those guys.

 

Getting real tired of the stupid Credit Karma commercials where the pick up their phone, punch one button and voila, there's their credit score.

It doesn't fucking work like that.

 

Yes, because of Ebonics. This isn't the Southern "chile," is rarely found outside the black community. Racist? No.

Language snob? Maybe. I get equally annoyed by those of an Appalachian background (like my mother) who insert an "r" in "warsh" or "Warshington" or when Cockneys say "somefin'."

 

The word "hill" stretched out to the two-syllable "heel" says hello.

 

Around NC, the 85% refers to their team as the heeeals. When they spell out the full nickname, it's usually one word.

 

Every time I hear some hillbilly calling my home state mu-ZURAH, I want to kick someone's ass — especially if it's someone on television that ought to know better.

Keep that shit in Arkansas.

 

The State Farm Hoopers commercials. Why do they assume I can recognize NBA players in drag?
