Dumb Commercials

Totally NWR, but I am so tired of how dumb commercials are duplicated.  For example, the Energizer bunny commercials were so annoying and the worst thing was that they kept making them for years.  (They might still be making them - I'm not sure).  I might have thought it was clever at first, but it has been way overdone.

My least favorite commercials these days - Swiffers:


So, what commericals do you get tired of?  Post an example if you can find it on youtube.

    I think a lot of the Hardees commercials are just gross.  H changes the channel when some of them come on.

    Especially this one (Miss Turkey- Turkey Burger): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-XceBQZXHk

    I honestly couldn't say....I don't watch regular TV, so I never see commercials. And I'm totally ok with that. ;)

    H and I don't have a TV. But Hulu and other websites I get my TV from have some really dumb ones. Hulu used to make you watch the same commercial every time there was a break. That was annoying...

    There was some kind of national contest for insurance agents selling Progressive to film their own Flo commercial. A lady I've babysat for sells Progressive and she won the contest. I always think of her when I think of Flo now. :)

    We have TiVo, so I just fastforward through commercials.  On Pandora, I'm sick of the "We are Farmers!" commercials!

    I absolutely cannot stand those "pudding face" commercials.  The kids look so creepy.  I always change the channel when it comes on.

    Just remembered one. I hate the Ally bank ones with the guy being mean to the kid with the ice cream...It's not overplayed or anything, but it made me mad the first time I watched it.

    The Geico "dumb things with smart phones" commercial is pretty bad. 

    Which is sad, because some of Geico's commercials are really funny, like this one and this one, too.

    I agree about the pudding face commercials... creepy! 

    I also get annoyed with the Laughing Cow cheese commercials that have that song that goes, "I won't stop loving you." I always end up signing the song all day long to my H haha. (I looked for it on youtube, but I couldn't find it).

    I really only hear commercials on the radio. There's this one that I always criticize and it's so stupid. it's about sedation dentistry and she says "I didn't feel an INCH of pain!" and i always think to myself "you measure pain in inches?" it's so stupid, i dont know why i always think that haha
