Updated thread - What TV commercial gets on your nerves?

  1. Hate the ones where the wife is all knowing and the husband is the idiot. Can you imagine the uproar with the roles reversed?

    "Behind the Scenes" of the Cookie Monster Siri Ad. :D



    I still can't get enough of this ad. MORE.

    How many cut-rate informercial style products can Brett Favre appear in commercials for? Is this some bet he lost to Pete Rose?

    There's some car commercial - I don't even know the brand - where the voice is using assonance - 'never waste it' 'break it' etc.
    I despise it. Looking at the poetics of it, the voiceover highlights the worst of rap lyrical conventions.

    Paired in the wagering with Larry King.

    I don't know why, but I think they're pretty good, especially the one with the rings. "You ain't got no rings!" "Shore don't *smooch*"

    Something about the Chevy ads with the passive aggressive focus group leader just climbs on my last nerve.

    Yeah, those commercials don't do much for me. They need to find new roads.

    Yeah, but the blonde girl who tries to stop him before he throws her phone in a chipper has a really nice caboose.

    The one who gets pissed because some guy doesn't like a Ford truck is pretty hot, too. But I'm sure she's quite the bitch.

    I saw a Prius ad yesterday that I thought was totally socially irresponsible. Four folks running from the law in a red Prius, and suddenly fifty other red Priuses show up, then perform some shuffling maneuver to confuse the cops. WTF? Was this some kind of Fuck Da Police ad, WITH PRIUSes?
