Which commercials annoye the shiit out of you?

Snugli.   It just bugs me.  No one is the happy about a blanket.






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

Re: Which commercials annoye the shiit out of you?

  • I hate the Mr. Opportunity car commercials when he "knocks". The noise grates me. And Lynda- my boss has a Snuggi and she's insane about it. Then again... she's kind of insane.
  • The DROP 3 SIZES IN TEN MINUTES commercials.They're infomercials, but still.  I sit there and scream at the TV - it's a girdle!  It's an expensive-as-hell girdle.  You have not lost 3 sizes, you still look lumpy. Stop it!
  • You have not lost 3 sizes, you still look lumpy. Stop it! So true !!

  • The Froot of the Loom ones with adult fruit singing about children's underwear.It's just not right.

  • Those Charmin commercials with the mama bear doing a butt inspection of the baby bear, and finding it is not clean. There is something that is just.... embarrassing.... about those.

  • Any car dealership commercial where they scream or use little kids.
  • I hate any commercial that is about and STD, these people should not be so annoyingly happy that they have and STD.
  • I hate what america did to the cute multigrain cheerios commercial. It WAS this cute british couple "are you saying I need to watch my weight?!", but when its aired on american channels, they have it dubbed in "american" (ie, not with a british accent) voices. Ruined it.
  • TJ - I agree the Fruit of the loom commercials are kind of creppy.

  • The Cialis, Viagra, Levitra ones.  All annoying.

  • Can't think of one I dislike, but FI hates the bank commericals where they let the kid play with the bike/truck/horse for a few minutes and then take it away.  I love them though.
  • For the most part all commercials annoy me. They have to be very clever or funny for me to notice.I can't stand any of the prescription drugs commercials in particular.

  • Dani - my BIL started changing the channel when Viagra commericails came on because my nieces and nephews started going around singing 'Viva Viagra'

  • On the food network all day sunday they were playing a preview for the TV show "Weeds".  The chick is singing "There's a show and it's called weeds...."  She can't carry a tune and she's singing it to an annoying tone.  It pisses me off.

  • Mandy, I think its a long running... thing with weeds. I remember their commercials last year having the same chick singing off tune about dooby-doobies. I dont get it, they play it on the radio too. I hear it once or twice an hour.
  • The chick-fil-A cows must die, as do the insurance cavemen and the stupid eyeballs taped onto a stack of money. GOD they irritate the crap out of me!
  • Any commercial where they repeat the phone number or website three times rapid-fire.  Shut up, I am trying to ignore you, if I didn't take it down the first or second time, there is no way in hell I'm taking it down a third time, and I don't need it stuck in my head all day.

  • there's a show and...it's called weeds and... Yes, very annoying. Sham-Wow, Head-On, and the Huggies dance.

  • The guy walking along with the bouquet of flowers (the only line I remember is "puppy on a hovercraft") which he eventually hands to a robot chick.I like the puppy on the hovercraft, but the commercial itself is annoying. Have no idea what its for.Ditto on the geico or whatever eyeballs commercial.  Also hate talking body parts (bellybuttons, eyelids, etc).As much as I am afraid of ducks, I do still love AFLAC commercials (but, I'm partial to the company too).

    I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew
  • I could literally recite the entire commercial to you right now mandy...
  • as do the insurance cavemen and the stupid eyeballs taped onto a stack of moneyAnother reason to love you, Bec. I thought I was the only one who didn't think these were cute.
  • I love the show Weeds, glad I haven't seen those commercials then... I can't stand any commercial about a BC plan thats not a pill. Nuva ring for example...they just seem WAY too excited about their BC....

  • Damn it Lynda! I've got the Viagra song stuck in my head now.
  • missy  - that is the Popular Science commerical.  It bugs me too.  But I think it's because it's been on a lot lately to promote the show.
