Mind Numbingly Stupid Commercials

Is anyone else sick of these stupid commercials?

Here are some ones I particularly hate:

1) All AOhelL and M$N commercials
2) All Ditech.com commercials, I mean, c'mon, a cross dressing bastard who has the brains of a two year old?
3) The Flexon Frames commercial where that annoying idiot tries to impress women with his glasses
4) Hotels.com commercials (worst actors in the history of Television)

5. The damn Carrot Top AT&T commercials (someone cap this fucktard!)
6. YODA-MAN Episode 2 advert (thank goodness it never airs again!)
7. The oral-b commercials. If I wanted to brush like a fucking dentist, I'd buy dentistry tools!
8. Every damn "sexual stimulant" commercial that has ever aired!
9. Every damn Dell and Gateway commercial.

ALF is cool. Using him in a commercial like that, however, is sick and wrong...

ALF and Carrot Top easily reaches my highest vote...most the others aren't drilled into me constantly.

Don't make me link that Penny Arcade strip!

I find AOL ads to be revolting. I like to point out the fallacies in them as it goes along. I should write them all up sometime.

Being a man, I find those feminine hygeine commercials annoying.

Those "the anti-drug" commercials can be stupid too.

Not to mention those commercials with annyoing music and/or bad acting.

I find commericails as a general rule to be entirely too insulting to my intellegence....

Fools!! None of you know brain numbing until you watch Spanish TV and see those commercials. they even have shows like Sabado Gigante (Giant Saturday) where the studio audience sings along to the commercial jingls during the shows. Its fucking embarassing. Hispanic stereotypes abound and by FAR the most offensive are the Lawyer commercials. They act like a slip and fall that killed you or a dead baby in the hospital is like hitting the lotto. Not to mention a talking Rotweiler mascot for one of the law firms. I shit you not.

Bastards.

Those Chrystler "Drive=Love" commercials make me want to kick someone's teeth out the back of their neck. Ideally someone involved with the commercial.

Hold on! How did I ever forget those God-forsaken GAP commercials? And the scariest part is, some people actually like them!

And I also find those car ads where the car advertised is the only car for miles. I especailly find the "Because, you never know when your on-road dirving will become a little off" line to be dumb beyong belief.

Carl's Junior. I DON'T want to hear that foley added smacking sound, and I sure has hell don't want to see some slob drip shit all over himself. I despise those commercials.

Those damn Ad Council anti-marijuana commercials. Utter depths of stupid.

Superman · Post by **Superman** » 2003-05-06 07:08pm

Yeah, those are the commercials that say "one out of every two car accidents had a driver that tested positive for marijuana?" whahahaha

They could just as easily have said, "one out of every two car accidents had a driver eating french fries." We could make it an anti french fry campaign.

You mean freedom fries.

The actual wording was "One out of every two car accidents which had the driver tested for drugs tested positive for marijuana.", or something like that. In effect, it only includes the people they tested for drugs, and not people not tested.

They have a good way of hiding the facts.

And that doesn't even mean they were actually stoned, just that they'd smoked marijuana recently enough for it to show up in their urine or whatever.

i hate the anti drug commercials that lie about facts and in the process are actually giving out harmful information, information that, if listened to, makes using the drug more deadly!

I thought it was one out of every three....

BTW I thought being even better, who the fuck drives after taking a hit?
No you don't get stupid behavior like that unless you mix THC with a LEGAL DRUG. I wonder how much Anhieser-Bush is paying to make sure they don't point out that those Marajana DWIs were also legally intoxicated with a legally avaialable beverage, most of the time. As in most of the other impairs judgement cases it's getting dragged in along with the more "Socially Acceptable' drug.

Oh, BTW I am down to 2 cups of caffine intensive Tea these days... (Damn heart)

I don't think I've seen that one. Could you go into more detail?

I just about rolled when I saw that chimp imping him.
