I hate those low budget commercials (usually done by local dealers) where they're practically yelling at the screen or they get their six year old kid is saying "come buy from us".

1) I hate the yelling, hurts my ears and is unappealing.
2) Using your young kid(s) to make a sale is just low.

Progressive insurance commercial.
I think that Flo girl is so annoying. ._.

i agree with what you say about using kids. i've seen alot of commercials that use kids. i think they do cuz its supposed to be cute or something.

Gold for Cash commercials

The bad acting makes it less than reassuring

Morana Ryuu 11-08-2009 06:18 PM

Practicly every single comercial where it makes you ask "wtf were they thinking?" "They had to have been doing some type of drug to create that." "What was the point of that comercial?" and"You have got to be kidding me, right?" all the comercials that make me think any of those things are the ones I can not stand at all...

i agree. plus, my husband swears that those commercials are a scam.

Captain Howdy 11-08-2009 10:23 PM

They seem like a scam. It's awfully dodgy, in my opinion, just blindly sending off your valuable to strangers through the mail.

BinkaKitty 11-09-2009 03:03 AM

i know. i could probably find a better use for my old and mix-matched jewelry. altho, i don't really have much gold jewelry. i just have cheap junk.

Bunai 11-09-2009 03:16 AM

Well, if you are sending off broken and no longer used jewelry, getting it taken shouldn't particularly matter. However, if they are asking for cash in exchange, then that is something to think about.

I positively DESPISE that commercial. I just want to shoot that woman. Yogurt is not seductive ya kinky twit and I will not think of it as so just because you licked your lips and smiled at the screen like a porn star. JEEZE. Get a life. *Grumbles*

Those cash4gold adverts annoy me, especially when the people are miming and the voice overs aren't even in time with them. Also the new cadburys advert annoys me cos the tune from the music always gets stuck in my head :-x

Funny story about those Male enhancement commercials..when my oldest was a little over two. The one for "Smiling Bob" came on and Aydin goes: "THAT'S for me! I need that!"

I about crapped myself laughing so hard! He was around 24-28 months old...

the most annoying are the cavemen commercials.

I don't mind her so much, though I think that's because she reminds me a little bit of myself. My biggest problem with them is how often they play the commercials. You know, if it was like once every other hour, it wouldn't be so bad or randomized it a bit more. But nooooo... They have to play the same ones practically every commercial break.

Kole_Locke 11-10-2009 05:23 PM

There was one commercial that got nationwide attention that was on the news a couple years ago; it was called "Head On" the famous phrase repeated over and over Head On! Apply directly to the forehead. I remember they redid the commercial with a customer stopping the commercial mid-way and mocking the commercial then saying, I hate your commercial but I love your product!

The fucking Checkers commercial when the resturant turns into a fucking chicken :l

Lady_Megami 11-10-2009 10:02 PM

What about those commercials for "Friday Night Lights"!?! THEY DONT EVEN MAKE SENSE!! They make it look like a freaky good sci-fi show..but it is a darn football show!

WTF?!

I hate those stupid commercials.

also...is it just me or are those M&M commercials freaky..you know the ones with the green one eating other m&ms....

O_O cannibalism....

BinkaKitty 11-11-2009 04:14 AM

i just saw one commercial earlier today that was really stupid. i think it was for Cheer laundry detergent. there was this lady in the hospital, and the doctor walks in with this super bright white outfit, and the lady is like "are you an angel?" it was really stupid, her thinking he's an angel cuz of the practically glowing white outfit. then at the end, the doctor looked like he was trying to come between her and her husband but comparing his bright white shirt against her husbands dull white shirt.

I swear if foreign people turned on the tv at news time on a major channel they'd all think we have male enhancement problems and can't hold in our pee

Foxberry 11-12-2009 12:43 AM

I honestly cannot stand the commercials for Hardees/Carl's Jr. and other commercials that insult people's intelligence.

Stallion Duck 11-12-2009 01:32 AM

I hate all commercials where the car dealer ship owners or appliance store owners whore out their children in their ads.

Kole_Locke 11-12-2009 01:47 AM
