Commercials You Hate

Hello, I looked through the boards and couldn't find a similar thread, but if I missed it, mods, feel free to merge.

Seeing as how I can't post any links yet, I'll just say I hate that Jack in the Box commercial with the mini chicken sandwiches. The dancing irritates my eyeballs.

This one?


I don't watch many commercials (thank you, tivo), but I hate the old dancing guy in the Six Flags commercials.

That sandwich sounds kind of tasty, but I'm not going to encourage that sort of advertising. At least ENTERTAIN me if you want to sell me your crap!!

You wanna know how bad I am with commercials then eh? Then get this, and I swear I never copy pasted this ...

I was shopping for a new car,
Which one's me?
A new convertible or an S-U-V?
Too bad I didn't know my credit was shot
So I'm driving off the lot in a used-sub-compact

F-R-E-E that spells free
credit report dot com baby,
saw their ad on my TV,
thought about going but was too lazy

Now instead of looking fly and rolling phat
my legs are sticking to the vinal and my posse's getting laughed at ...

Those stupid Sonic commercials, all of them. I loved Sonic's cheeseburgers, but because of the nature of the short dialogues between the people in their commercials, I've now associated eating there with stupidity and annoyance and I am loathe to go there.

Examples:





If I could somehow convey to Sonic that their commercials are alienating me, and perhaps people like me, maybe the torture will end. It's odd to see advertising's affects in reverse. What a shame I'm so vulnerable to brand imaging.

I actually like the Sonic ads.

Unfortunately, since they have done away with both the Island Fire burger and their dollar menu, Sonic can suck my dick.

I completely agree. I used to eat at Sonic once or twice a month. After these commercials I barely go there once a year.

I just don't want to be associated with that kind of stupidity. I don't know anyone that talks or acts like these characters do. It's like nails on a chalkboard. Gah.

Wouldn't it be easier to name the few commercials that people don't hate? 99% of commercials are being written by people that HOPE to be the next Michael Bay (which to me is like hoping to be the next Jeffrey Dahmer or Sarah Palin), and include incredibly shallow and even bigoted stereotypes. They are a wasteland, the ultimate expression of soulless consumerism.

I despise the Hillshire Farms ad.
I hate it with a passion.
I want to stab the GO MEAT! boys in the eye with a hot poker.
And then pull a Matt Damon-Mooby attack on the Hillshire Farms executives.

I hate anything with Billy Mays. A part of me is relieved that those commercials will be short lived now.

I very much dislike the new Dell commercial. It's not that it comes on with lights turning on and one of the guy gets up and puts on his hat while the other guy gets up beside him and buttons his overalls making it obvious what they were doing down there in the dark.. It's that damn lollipop song! Make it stop!
