Again with the annoying commercials!

At least Geico has moved on from using Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again” to sell motorcycle insurance. You know, the song with lyrics “like a drifter I was born to walk alone”. I guess that’s why he needs insurance, his bike is always broken so he has to walk everywhere.

That guy who dances in the Domino’s Risky Business parody is seriously stiff.

I hope they at least tried to get Tom Cruise for the delivery guy. :smiley:

[sub]Meaning: I hope they at least asked him before hiring that other guy.[/sub]

I’d prefer if they’d gotten Joey Pants, who actually says the line in the film. They guy they got is the guy who tries to get Joel to say “what the fuck?”

Fucking phone commercial!
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…
We only come out at night…

The only good thing about that one is that it’s only a matter of time before it gets parodied with scenes from What We Do in the Shadows.

The new Arby’s commercials for their fish sandwiches are annoying. Ving Rames informs is that they’re two for $6, then he says the slogan - “We have the meats!” Why say that when people buy fish sandwiches because they want a meatless alternative?

Duplicate.

Fish is a meat.

It’s not considered a meat by some vegetarians. And the Catholic church gives it a pass for Catholics observing Lent.

Total missed importunity. Should have been Whodini’s Freaks Come Out At Night.

Now we’re supposed to believe that she’ll make up a story to recline on the couch and watch TV rather than go out to a nice dinner but will go to her nephew’s karate demonstration? :dubious:

So Facebook has a new ad that starts with a boring math class, and some girl whips out a kazoo and gives a honk. Someone else in the classroom replies with her own honk. Suddenly they are running out the doors and kazooing up a storm with dancing and crowds gathering. I can’t figure out where Facebook is supposed to fit in. None of that experience was online. WTF?

Facebook Groups for any interest or fetish, allowing aficionados to find each other.

I always think, “Bitch, people are paying for this class…”

Ditto.

Not a particular annoying commercial but one that is annoying me nontheless. The Dairy Queen one where the dad is ‘definitely not in charge’ has his daughter puts make up on him. “Eyes closed!” she commands.

Where have I seen that dad before? A comedy that I watched but which one?

ETA:Typing this out made me remember! He was Penny’s stupid boyfriend! Yay! That has been bothering me for forever!

There’s one I keep overhearing while my wife is watching TV. It for some chain of dental clinics, advertising dentures.

The “patient” in the commercial says, “My fiancee hadn’t seen me smile in ten years.”

I’m going to guess that, after ten years of being a fiancee, she’s probably not smiling much either.

Oh, and then he mentions that he wants dentures because they have a baby on the way and he wants to be able to smile in his first photo with baby.

Aside from the obvious, it’s also annoying because it perpetuates the myth that smiling requires showing all your teeth.

I’m just glad Arby’s commercials are borderline funny, unlike their deli sandwich campaign…

Right, but my point is that Facebook was not involved in any way in them finding each other. Whipping out a kazoo in class is not using Facebook. Unless they prearranged some flashmob, but I see no evidence of that.

Unless maybe their point is “Facebook - because what are the odds of finding another kazoo player in your math class?”

A local one here for a vision surgery center says, “If you are having trouble seeing because of cataracts, you’re lucky”. It goes on to say something about new surgical options that are cheaper than ever, but the way it sounds, they’re definitely saying you are lucky to have cataracts.
