    I think John Fogerty needs money because I just heard "Up Around the Bend" on a Raisin Bran commercial

    Taco Bell's commercial where the dude is mowing down on some massive steak thing while watching guys playing a pickup game doesn't show the obvious outcome. Assuming the dude doesn't have a heart attack, I'm pretty sure he's going to be driving the lane and slamming it home on the white hoop for 2 points (of course, if he's at a park, it might be the stainless steel hoop). Of course, he can be confident that no one will try to post him up.

    Any Christmas commercial before Thanksgiving. Fucking commercialism.

    We'll know when he's hit rock bottom if we see a Charmin commercial with There's a Bathroom on the Right.....

    And the diesel nozzle will not fit in a regular tank.

    My sister drives diesel truck, which she uses to haul her four-horse trailer. She says the diesel, even though it's more expensive, is cheaper in the long run because the truck gets far better gas mileage than a similar truck using unleadd.

    Sorry. Do not concur. T-Mobile may blow goats as a provider -- and I haven't heard a good thing about them from anyone -- but that couple deserves their own series.

    "For crying out loud, Jeremy. Close an app." is my favorite line of the year.

    Indeed we are. You're on a roll, OT. Those Sonic asshats not only deserve food poisoning, projectile vomiting and never-ending diarrhea, but they are plugging probably one of the worst fast-food joints on the planet.

    The best commcercial is the TP commcerical with the cartoons bears.
    The bear's got dingleberries! I never thought I'd live to see the day when dingleberries were used in a TV commercial.

    A-that's an old commercial...
    B-Who has that much room to not just get down on one knee, but dip your new fiance? I have yet to see an airplane with an aisle wide enough to just get in the seat comfortably! SHENANIGANS.
    C-when my future husband proposes, it had better not be in the coach section of an airplane.

    The Sonic guys never bothered me (maybe because I felt a tinge of loyalty because I once shared an elevator ride with them) but they have lost me with the new one about the made up word. It's like the copywriters aren't even trying anymore.

    The K-Mart .gif ad has a high probability of driving me to violence.

    Yep. Saw it four or five times in a 10-minute span while watching one of the football games last night.
