Commercials that irritate/make you wanna..

I saw a great Home Depot commercial this morning. Girl walks up to the fridge with a cup and slams it against the fridge door (and I do mean, it's NOTHING but the fridge door).

"Hmmm....water dispenser doesn't work."

She slams the cup against the door a couple more times.

"Hmmm...ice dispenser doesn't work either." Then she walks off as her husband looks on.

Then he says, as she leaves the room, "Point taken!"

In our house, it's actually the reverse...I am SO ready to upgrade our 20+ year old fridge, but wifey is attached to it. And the damn thing works fine so I have no argument.

the BMW commercial that they run during christmas. A kid opens his present and screams for the next 20 seconds about how happy he is. Then BMW says, remember when you used to get what you want for christmas? The kid's screaming is so bad it makes you want to change the channel. The exact opposite of what a commercial is supposed to do.

Any of the VW commercials were they say in a German accent "we are going to pimp your ride," then they destroy the vehicle and then show the POS newVW. The commercial just drives me crazy......and I don't know why.....

The one that's annoying me the most currently is the "Sound of Music" ad for Kia: "Adieu, adieu, to you and you and yooouu!!!!!!!!" Aaarrrrghh!!

At all times, any ad with absurdly "on the nose" dialogue that involves a man and a woman who are supposed to be husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend discussing a product: E.g., "Wow my crotch itches." "Well, honey, when my crotch itches I use product X! It really soothes the itching." "Wow, really, I've never heard of product X but I have to try it for my crotch itch. Wow, you're right product X really works!" "See, honey, I told you product X would fix your crotch itch." :smash::smash:

-The "Thanks Dave" commercials for the RE guy who guarantees he will sell your house quickly and for top dollar. Knowing that why in the world would anyone buy from him? You have to know you are getting hosed.

"Dave sold my house literally for top dollar in just one day."

Did he? Did he really? Please explain to me what the fuck is literal about "top dollar" you dipshit?

Several of you have mentioned Head On... have you seen the newer commercial in which they mock their own ad campaign? It starts as a regular Head On ad and then is interreupted by a rather creepy, strangely angry man... screaming "Head on! I HATE your commercial! But... I LOVE your product!" Like he's really pissed that he actually likes a product with such an awful commercial. It's actually kind of funny. I have to give them props for realizing that their commercials were awful and making fun of themselves.


Anything with talking babies is just wrong.

Any subway commercial...I hate them, and there's no way on earth that Jared lost all that weight by stuffing his face with sandwiches. And everytime I eat Subway (which is rare) my sub never looks like the picture. I know that can be said for every sub shop, fast food chain, but come on, if I'm paying $8 for a sub, a bag of chips, and a cold refreshing fountain beverage, at least make my sub look halfway decent. I swear one day I'm going to pull a Michael Douglas in Falling Down minus the guns.

How about every single one of them?

On subway's official site they show Jared's diet that he used to lose the weight. It is one of the worst diets I have ever seen. He basically starved himself and ate zero protein. Just a load of coffee and a couple of vegetarian subs. He should NOT be giving any nutritional advice.
