adverts that turned out creepy

Thread relocated from IMHO to Cafe Society.

Burger King as stalker/mugger/seriously disturbing individual.

Doesn’t compare with Wake Up With The King.

What in the ever-loving fuck was that??? If I have nightmares, it’s on you.

This should make you laugh a lot.

The current Charmin radio commercial team should not only be fired, they should be drummed out of the industry.

  1. Radio commercial -
    “Mooooom”
    “Honey”
    Woman’s voiceover - “In our house we go, a lot…”

No, no, no; this is just SO WRONG! Saying, "In our house we use a lot of TP could refer to the # of people living there. A Brady Bunch or Eight is Enough househould will use a lot of TP. Saying we go a lot has a much different connotation; maybe Mom should take some cooking lessons? :eek:
2. My hieney is so Charmin shiny. Ummm, unless I’m being very intimate with someone I really don’t care to know how shiny your hieney is.

The Folger’s ad is a classic of this type. :smiley:

A lot of the others posted in this thread were intentionally creepy, which is I think a different category.

Was this before or after Dave Bowman arrived?

My first thoughts were the creepy toenail fungus commercials.

Lamisil(where they pry up a toenail–eww!)
Jublia(Toe in football uniform–attached to the rest of the foot). Also eww.

Some people find the Quiznos Spongmonkeys creepy, but I find them oddly charming (probably because I’m a fan of the old Rathergood web videos).

Thats exactly what I was thinking

That Mountain Dew Puppymonkeybaby commercial.

The eHarmony commercials where the creepy old founder guy always seems to end up on the date with them.

Those wild and crazy kids need a chaperone or else babies might result.

Male.

This commercial is from Australia, for the Dickens beverage company. They are introducing a new hard cider. It’s not so much creepy and kinky, like the Quizno’s ad.

"Surprise your girlfriend with a Dicken's cider" Say that fast.

That kid in the first fios commercial creeped me out.
The one where he lectures a bunch of women is nauseating.
Hush your mouth and respect your elders.

Never heard of these commercials, but the one you are calling “nauseating” has a medical condition. But still is a popular star of an incredibly popular TV series. He’s making 2 million dollars this year. How 'bout you?

After, since she asked “Where’s David.”
That is the most disturbing 2001 derived ad I’ve ever seen. Notice she dropped the spoon on the floor just like the wine glass in the movie?

They should have done blood tests for whoever came up with that ad, since they must have been on something nasty.

^ Bad speakers on my end; it sounded like “Stephen/Steven” the first half dozen times.

I had a very uneasy moment when she asked “Where’s David?” and the little door on the robot opened.

Four Loko, according to the director.
