What's your most hated?

I keep seeing the damn commercial for the Nissan 350Z with the guy making the stupid fucking baby noises and the shitty singing. Damnit I hate that commercial.

Pam Anderson and her anti-KFC commercial is number one on my list.
Number 2 is that one that goes: Have a happy period.

Any commercial with the idiotic "zoom zoom" gimmick. I'll never buy a vehicle from whatever company that is.

Anything that has "Do you ever get the unfresh feeling?" anywhere in the commercial.

The goddamn Canadian Tire commercial... I want to hit their 'canadian tire guy' in the face with a brick.

Aw, I love the zoom zoom commercials.

What I hate is the tampon commercial where the girl asks for a brownie and her friend goes, "Oh yeah, she's menstural!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FAKE LAUGHTER like it's the funniest thing in the world.

I hate all of the Sonic commercials. The actors they use are ugly and the "jokes" aren't even close to being funny.

Frisch's Big Boy commercials are annoying too.

For some reason the McDonald's one where the guys and the girl are sitting in their car only to start saying 'chicken' in various ways. I don't know why but drives me ape shit. Grr.

Speaking of McDonald's.. the commercials where the anorexic looking girl is walking around and doing the hand signal telling people that she's going to get that chicken sandwich. Matter of fact, any commercial revolving around that little hand signal is annoying.

I'd start on radio commercials, but I can't think of enough swear words to convey my true feelings.

I hate the Science Fiction channel commercials. Most of them are kind of clever the first or second time. But by the time the movie you're watching is nearly over, you're sitting through 5 minutes of commercial for every 2 minutes of movie, and 99% of them are for the channel you're already watching. This is why I generally wait for their stuff to be available on Netflix.

I'm going to agree with Flurbins. I might have to actually create whole new languages to express my discontent with radio commercials.

The worst are the commercials for the station you're listening to that say they play less commercials than the competing station.

Anyone else think the new Napster commerical with the eerie chick's voice is creepy? Reminds me of the subliminal messaging rumors from ten yrs ago. That and the little girl from Poltergeist.

Any of the absolutely retarded sollicitations on television advertising "Songs of Worship," or "Top Christian Hits," or "I Want to Feel Your Jesus Deep Inside My Virgin Mary."

I fucking hate that silly stuff! :devil:

GM/On-Star

Basically I hate all of them, but the one that started my hatrid had a kid saying "What are we going to do, the person stole our car with my little brother in the back seat."

Translation: If you don't have a GM On-star equipped vehicle you're an awful parent and should worry about your kids being carjacked.

The mazda "Zoom Zoom" is kind of annoying, though I enjoy seeing what the "Nissan" guy does in each commercial.

Also annoying is the ads for Fox Evening News. They've toned it down, but in the past they've had a deep hurking voice say "Oozing black runoff, could it be in your back yard?" and "ASIAN GANGS!".

I think Ellen Degeneres has a joke about Fox News (or similar tactics). Something about "What you're eating right now could kill you!".

And she says "... IS IT PEAS?"

...

Much funnier coming from her.

Closely followed by the "You're at the gym? On your period?" one.

Who writes these? And when did women stop being able to function one week a month? And does everyone announce to their friends every time it starts?

And WTF is with the one where the girl plugs the hole IN THE BOAT with her tampon?

Jorddyn, thinks all tampon/feminine hygiene commercials suck

P.S. I :heart: the ranch tooth one.

And why are yeast infection medication commercials necessary? It's just so freakin stupid.


I hate Jared and his damn sammiches. I hate the Quiznos ones too with that annoying gravel-voiced baby. It's old. It's time for a new gimmick.

I hate the HEMI commercials especially with the couple and their little boy. I hate the husband most of all. He needs to be bitchslapped with an exacto knife.

Most retarded:

Lunesta - A sleep aid.

But in the "possible side affects" it says "drowsiness".

Jesus Christ it's a fucking SLEEP AID. People that made that commercial need to die a horrible death.

I encourage you to listen the next time that ad comes on.

Just about all those commercials for new medicines that start with "DO YOU FEEL LIKE THIS SOMETIMES?"

If its the 74389071408 time they've aired the commercial I develop a new pysiological defect. I should probably sue.

I call it monster Robin. It happens gradually. The eyes widen. The slow gritting-of-teeth scowl takes over the entire bottom portion of face. Fire continually shoots thru the eyes. And then a twitch develops. It forces me to projectile whatever is in right hand at TEEVEE.

:yeahthat:
They're all annoying. And the symptoms that "may" occur kinda offset even the idea of trying the drug in the first place. "May cause kidney failure" for toe fungus. Yeah, get me on THAT!

It's a fast food commercial. (I don't remember if it is BK or Wendy's). Instead of a sweet tooth, the guy has a ranch tooth.

It follows him around and says "Ranch Ranch Ranch."

It makes me giggle.

Definitely never seen it then. Maybe that's a good thing.

Also hate the Moen (sp?) commercials for the bathroom fixtures and such. I think I've ranted about this before.

Bob decided to go big! New clubs, new swing, and a call to Levitra!

Those are ok the first couple times, but ESPN has a bad habit of playing them 4 times in a row in every single commercial break.

The ranch tooth one is hilarious.

Worst commercials ever: The endless derivatives of the talentless hacks singing "I!!!! LOVE!!!!" etc. That alone makes me loathe watching Sportscenter on Sundays.

The "I'm lovin' it" slogan from McDonald's. Shut the fuck up, nobody loves McDonald's. It's what we get when we don't have any money.

The Hemi commercials are pretty bad too, except the guy lights himself on fire in one of them.

Radio is mind-bogglingly awful. My theory is it's a government conspiracy to improve American reaction time to unpleasant stimuli in an effort to prepare us for the Cryo-Ape Uprising of 2019.

Lunchtime, and I'm bored, so I decided to add a few...

The informercial about getting rich while working from home in your underwear. Scares me a little bit.

Lawyer commercials. "Have you ever been maimed, hurt, injured, coughed on, or looked at funny by anyone? If so, you may be entitled to cash damages! Call us today!"

The get-rich commercial where the girl says "It isn't a get rich scheme, but I did!"

The annoying diet pill "It's not your fault, you're a victim, try our amazing new pill!" (and in extremely tiny print points out you must also diet and exercise.)

Any commercial where people are completely inept at using normal products. "Is this you?!?" (Shows a woman who can't snap the lid on a tupperware bowl) "Buy our product for only $99.99 and this could be you!" (Shows the same woman, suddenly 20 pounds lighter and married to Orlando Bloom, and thanks to their product, her lids work!)

The entire QVC/HSN/Buy-our-crap stations.

Commercials that are faked to look like talk shows. The latest fad for these (now that get-rich-on-real-estate seems to be dying) appears to be vitamins. The one with the guy with the slicked-back mullet and pencil mustache talking to the lady in the sequined evening gown makes me want to giggle. There's also one with a guy who to be on the real estate commercials. It must be legit! Anyone who knows that much about real estate MUST know a thing or two about vitamins!

Any commercial where the entire "plot" is keeping the product away from a cartoon character.

The Burger King guy. Weird. Not in a good way.

The Disaronno Amaretto commercial where the entire bar is stocked with it, and she stops him from taking her empty glass so she can suck the last of it off the ice cube. Subtle. Really.

All Hardee's commercials. Except the "Breakfast is hard" ones. I like those :D

Any commercial that contains the words "Low carb", especially in conjunction with beer. If you're that concerned with your "carbs", leave the beer alone.

Jorddyn, ranch ranch ranch :lol:

Funny you should say that, because Burger King is a british company.




Anywho... The commercials for Dish Network get on my nerves. There's some german scientist dressed in a lab coat, and he walks over to a TV, and all of his clothes are torn off, and they stick to the TV. He goes, "WHOOAH! This TV really SUCKS!"

There's another one where the TV stinks. Supposidly it smells like cheese, toe jam, roadkill, and other equally stinky stuff.

Both are rather annoying.

Those damn Geico commercials. And Safe Auto and the General . . . and pretty much any discount car insurance. I got up this morning at 9 and have had the tv on while I'm doing some reading before class and I swear I've been bombarded by about 300 of those.
