Haven’t seen this DriveTime commercial in a while, only the short version. Maybe they finally realized that not everyone has a smartphone.
Her yammering manner of speaking is very annoying. I always hated this commercial.
The owners of the Crossroads dealerships here in NC seem to think Thanksgiving is a Christian holiday, and feel the need to air long, rambling, borderline proselytizing commercials to explain that this is why their dealerships won’t be open on Thanksgiving.
In **NC **they likely think Hanukkah is a Christian Holiday.
But yeah, car dealerships shoudl be closed.
Drug stores, auto parts stores, a repair shop or two, that sort of thing shoudl be the only ones open.
The woman featured in Hilton ads (who barges into other people’s conversations and puts cucumber slices on her eyelids) has for me supplanted the 30-something Sonic dunces and the LiMu emu for most obnoxious spokesperson/thing.
That’s unfortunate. I always liked Thanksgiving precisely because it’s not tied to any religion or culture, so it can be celebrated by Americans of all sorts.
We’re getting bombed at least four times during the news hour with Bloomberg’s ad. I hate him already.
Oh. So only half as much as Steyer. Hey, Tom? Get a real belt, okay?
This Arm and Hammer cat litter commercial annoys me.
These are anthropomorphic cats. They live in a house and wear clothes and they use a litter box. Do their bathrooms have no toilets? Even a domestic cat can learn how to use a toilet.
I hate whispering also. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to listen to it for some kind of thrill. It makes me angry and upset.
There used to be a car commercial that had some little boys on it singing, and at the end one of them would whisper “sup sup” and I would be SO MAD. I would always try to hurry and change the channel before that obnoxious line could be spoken.
There’s a commercial right now that features a married couple talking about the wife’s “she shed” while it’s on fire. Then they say something that sounds like “she shear shed” and I totally don’t get it.
Those commercials are amazingly stupid. We hadn’t watched TV for many months before we were able to watch football and our teams were on in this area. So we start watching and see these incomprehensible ads that leave us saying “What the heck was that?” instead of “Let’s go with State Farm for insurance.”
We discussed that one earlier in the thread. She’s saying “chichi-er she shed.”
According to closed-captioning, it’s “she-she-r she shed”.
The whole concept is dumber than referring to dens as “man-caves”.
I don’t get any Steyer ads, but I have probably seen at least two dozen Bloomberg commercials in the last few days. He must be spending a boatload of money trying to get in the race.
Yeah, that’s bad. Bad cat suits, bad concept.
Lately I’m extra annoyed by the “cold turkey”. How many times is he going to quit? The product doesn’t seem to be working.
Don’t always rely on closed captioning.
Also, watch this video with the closed captioning turned on.
Nah. I already know how wonky the captioning is at YouTube. 
XD Pretty much.
Same here…yet I’m related to people who have been searching Facebook for “Thanksgiving hyms”. (Is “My Country 'Tis of Thee” a hymn now?)
Based on my personal experience, she won’t be getting a new “chi-chi-er” or “she-she-er” or any other kind of shed, because State Farm will (rather conveniently for them) determine that the damage can be repaired for just under the deductible.
I hesitate to inflict this one on others, but it’s certainly extremely annoying after seeing it a few times (in one day). Cadillac’s holiday commercial from this year features a tinkly version of Jingle Bells that sounds like those crappy musical gift cards. The real annoying part is it plays through the first half of the chorus, then just replays the second half of the chorus over and over for the rest of the commercial, as if the music gift card has glitched out.
“*JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE ALL THE WAY…”
“OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE HORSE OPEN SLEIGH!”*
Stuff like this kills me because I’m highly susceptible to ear worms. So this has been jammed in my skull like a brain syringe all day.
The Chanel No. 5 Snow Globe commercial can burn in hell. Not sure what annoys me more, the first 28 seconds or the last 2.
