I think all the commercials I have had would annoy the hell out of me. I mean, what commercial doesn't annoy the crap out of you? So every commercial. Though some foreign commercials are funny. Also I do love watching Korean cf. Cf stands for commercial there. :D

heeheehee.

one of my leaste favorite commercials is the geico one where the song where it goes "i always feel like sombodies watching me!" it drives me INSANE. theres like 3 different versions of them:

1 - the old-ish lady sitting on a bench and she gets a text mesage saying "im watching you" then she gets another saying "down here" and looks at this skater teen. then gets another that says "no down here" and sees the googly-eyed money next to a cell phone and smiles.

who would smile after getting stalkery text messages by a stack of money with googly-eyes???not me thats who!

2 - a guy is sitting at a booth in a diner and her hears the music from the song "i always feel like somebodies watching me" so he gets up and sees the same stack of money with googly-eyes on the counter and takes the lid off some cookie jar thing and covers the money stack with it ad it muffles the sound of the music.

ok?realy?I know that the glass would only muffle it! why didnt he get a friggin pillow and suffocate it to death!!!

3 - this guy is driving in his car and he pulls to the side of the road next to some old hairy guy and starts to say something when he sees the googly-eyed stack of money sitting on a fence and the hairy guy says "poor little fella mustve been following you fer miles"then the guy driving looks guiltyly at the money...

weird much? why couldnt the hairy guy have been some super model or something? was geico short on budget for the commercial? and if the money stack had been following him for miles, why did the guy feel sorry for it? its the moneys fault! it shouldnt be so stalkery!

So this may or may not stay on topic but, I am so fucking tired of every time I go onto a website, every time I turn on the T.V., there they are, these porn, half-naked lady, caller ads screaming out at me. Hustler TV ad, Play Boy TV ad, Call Girl ads, Girls gone wild, the list goes on. It seriously makes me wonder how people can be angry and feel offended, that, 1. they think all women are whorey sluts, and 2. all men are chauvinistic pigs. Uhhh; what else are we supposed to think? Sex sells, fine what the hell ever, but to me it completely shuts me off to the opposite and same sex body. It's distasteful, disgusting, and might I add, numbing. It causes me to feel bored and even uninterested in it. It makes me angry. I'm watching Law and Order SVU, which is odd to have these kinds of commercials anyways, and there they are. Sex sex sex. I watch cartoons, sex sex sex. It repulses me as a female, I hope it repulses guys too. You aren't all pigs who only want sex. I know this. So ahhh! Once in a great while, fine, show the commercials. But every single commercial after 8pm? COME ON!!!!! Or if you go online, even on sites little kids can get on, there they are. ;___;

Please, I don't want to see it anymore.

BinkaKitty 12-22-2009 11:35 PM

i know what you mean on that. what's worse is when you go onto what should be a kid site, or mostly kid site, and there is some add that looks related to porn. it's like that on this pokemon site i go on. half the time, the side add has a half dressed woman! it's so annoying!

Male enhancement and perfume commercials.

Javert 12-27-2009 07:17 AM

I hate any and all male enhancement pill commercials and ads. I also hate that commercial Walmart made for Christmas. The jingle is SO annoying- and if anyone chases sales that often, there's a problem. >_<;. (Or maybe it's just me- I've never seen a point in driving all over just to save a few dollars on something. And I've always hated Doorbuster/Black Friday sales, too. ^^;). And Wicked, I agree about the Education Connection commercial. It's too long, and it's obnoxious. :(.
I also hate any and all pad/tampon commercials. I don't see any point in advertising them on TV. >_<;.

htownwera14 12-27-2009 11:26 PM

I hate the big top[ commercial, the one with that giant cupcake thingie. the little girl on there looks really dumb . I dont know I jus hate that commercial.

hannah12319 12-28-2009 06:29 PM

ringtone adverts for jamster.com i cant stand them!!!

Quixotic 12-29-2009 12:06 PM

I'm also tired of the male enhancement commercials. Also the Pothole commercial. It's terrible. The college commercial on Adult Swim is very annoying, the one where the girl sings a stupid song. I think the commercial I hate most though, is the life alert one. I CANNOT STAND when that woman says, "Life Alert was there for me", in such a snobbish tone. I always mute it or cover my ears, or just turn the tv off for a second.

lightkanna 12-29-2009 10:32 PM

The freecredit guy annoys me. Who cares if you got your identity stolen. It was your fault and that you were dumb enough to not know. Though it gets me thinking if I had my identity stolen or something.

Bunai 12-31-2009 04:47 AM

That guy that screams about getting FREE STUFF FROM THE GOVERNMENT.

It is sad that people don't notice how one way it is. Sure you may get tips and tricks from the books, but the point is... that guy is probably rich just having people buy his book, not because he got free money from the government.

Beetle 01-02-2010 11:47 PM

Any Anti-smoking or Drink-driving PSA. T_T

We used to have these annoying 'Loan' commercials
on the Dutch television.
About very 'happy family' families who wanted a bigger car
then they already had, so they go find one. And then the dad
says very proud and cocky into the camera with a big smile:
"all thanks to [insert name of loan bank or whatever here]"
It's so annoying >_< Also a young couple who want to make their
house a big bigger, and take a loan.

Then later I heard on the news that there were alot of young
couples who did this too because of those commercials and adds,
that they got into trouble because the company who gave the loans
did not checked the families income to see if they can pay the tax and
whatever, so now they have big text under it: Loan will cost you money.
*sigh*

And I'm also annoyed when (Dutch) celebs are in commercials for companies
that actualy suck. Some dutch singer is making commercials for some
energy company that actualy had alot of complaints since it excists =/

My hatred flows in this order.

1. The Dairy Queen commercial, wherein they attempt to sing the peanut butter jelly time song, using the words
Quote:

Ice cream and cake and cake.
this commercial annoys me to the point of anger.

2. The various geico caveman commercials. the little lizard is not so bad.

3. Male enhancement. mostly because it has been the same commercial for like five years. AT least annoy me with new stupidity people!

4. Commercials for depression medication that can kill you six ways including an enhanced risk of suicide. These drugs should really not be on the market, and therefore the commercials annoy me.

5. Commercials for allergy meds, that cause sniffling sneezing, and itchy watery red eyes... they are clearly not actually doing anything. you just still have allergies.

Wynna 01-05-2010 06:01 PM

The shamwow! commercial, the guy is so annoying..

Wicked 01-06-2010 06:38 AM

Oh no! Awww I love Vince. The new "remix" commercial sucks but the original is fine.

nette 01-07-2010 04:02 AM

The commercials that have nothing to do with the products of services they sell. They've told you useless bits of information and you still don't know what exactly it's all about.

I hate that commercial with a burning passion.

You mean this one?



I hate it also, it's been on since August and the deals at the top say stuff like 'available till 21/09/09' and they up the date till 'available till 13/10/09'
When will it ever end? x_x

I also hate the gocompare ones. The one with the tenor singing "Gocompare, gocompare, when in doubt check them out gocompare!"

Portia 01-08-2010 12:50 AM

Yes. There is a comparrison site for car insurance and the likes and the advert is a very annoying man doing opera singing. That is tedious. But catchy so you find yourself humming the tune. Dire.

Harmonius 01-08-2010 01:15 AM

Anyone else know that "Thirty second spray and walk away" commercial?

Yeah, I hate that.
It only helps people make fun of me.

an1m3ch1c 01-09-2010 05:32 AM

Any acne commercials. Mainly because it just shows that you are hideous if you don't get the acne cream right away. In my opinion i think that it is annoying.

Twisted Insanity 01-09-2010 05:56 AM

The Vonage phone service commercials. It's annoying when I hear them go: WOOHOO WOO HOOHOO WOOHOO and they keep going and going. I get sick of it, no I am sick of it.:illgetu:

Eastriel 01-09-2010 01:25 PM

I really disliked one that was on around christmas for Bailey's, it just had this woman mouthing along to let it snow, It was a close up on her lips and occasionally she'd sing one of the words in the song it a really sickly sweet voice e.g: 'Frightful' and then 'Delightful' and over all the advert was mega sickly and pathetic.

sailor star rainbow 01-09-2010 11:29 PM

I can't stand the new Chill's baby back ribs jingle ones they get stuck in my head.
