Most irritating commercial of the decade

[ExTank]

Well, personally, I hate the damned Carl's Jr. commercials; they all sound like they stuck a microphone in someone's mouth while they were eating. This is supposed to be appetizing?

And I especially love those medicine commercials, where some company's hocking it's latest concoction, and then at the end they do the speed-talk thing, telling us about the possible side effects.

Now, I realize most of those side effects will never occur in the vast majority of people taking those medications, but GOD! Those side effects sound worse than the damned malady they're supposed to be curing!

What is are some opinions for the worst TV commercial of the decade? I think that commercial for flautulance is the worst. I can't think of the name of product (beano maybe? not sure) but the ad shows this woman at a party talking to several men..all of a sudden she has to retreat to the balconey where she apparently passes gas and then goes back to the party to talk to the men who are blissfully unaware that she has just come back from farting like a govenment mule.

SECOND WORST.....
Woodstock ..Tampax was there!!!!!! ( include all feminine hygene product commercials here).

I am annoyed by all the lists that put the "Apple Computer Commercial that aired only once during a 1980's SuperBowl" on the top of their favorites.

I wouldn't call it a bad commercial, mostly because I don't remember it. Why does everyone make such a big deal of it? And why didn't Apple ever show it again? Why didn't they want to milk it for what it cost them? Maybe they thought it was a bad commercial!

I think this falls in more along the lines of MPSIMS (in fact, they've had discussions similar to this in there before), so that's where I'm sending it. Have fun!
