[A funny cancer commercial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=N9sTp6L3soM) from the Danes. ---

The [Bedjet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXjIY-j8Yyw) commercial that is shown on Facebook is pretty good. Long, but good. CARL, IT’S A METAPHOR! ---

> [@cochrane](#): > > I mentioned this one in the annoying commercials thread. I think spitting out your smoothie all over the carpet is actually pretty disgusting. Definitely! I think the voiceover guy even acknowledges that… The whole thing is just so over the top though. The girl’s quick response suggests that this isn’t the first time something like this has happened… Who knows what that couch is hiding. ---

I thought the kid hitting himself in the junk was funnier and they don’t always show that version of the commercial. ---

The new Coors Light “Official” ads are entertaining and have good music: [ul] [li]The Official Beer of Drinking in the Shower[/li][li]The Official Beer of Being Done Wearing a Bra[/li][li](y en español) La Cerveza Oficial del Sábado por la Mañana[/ul][/li]It’s interesting that the [Drinking in the Shower ad](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-FjpnCufCk)contains a “Do Not Attempt” warning, but the woman letting it hang out and the guys knocking back some beers with breakfast get no such caveat. I guess drinking in the shower is more dangerous than I thought. (Or maybe the mothers are now against drunk showering.) ---

I gotta admit, I do get a bang out of the Progressive commercial with Jamie playing the bad kid who sits in back of the class. “Or maybe _he didn’t know_.” \ ---

OK, I saw this commercial and I had to laugh. Spoilered because it’s one of those gross Stanley Steemer commercials. [SPOILER]It’s the one where the dad is playing “airplane” with his baby daughter and she throws up all overt him. > **[\- YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe3Ws2X0Wgc%5B%2FSPOILER%5D&feature=youtu.be)** > > Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube. ---

Back in 2016 I posted that any commercial about dachshunds were cool. Also there was the 1998 Christmas cheese commercial.

I like two beer commercials for different reasons. Dos XX’s Total Eclipse of the Heart parodies because I know how it is when there’s nothing you can do, there’s a really big crowd at the bar. Modelo’s Great Americans commercials. Fills me with Latina pride and makes me want to go pick up some Modelo Negro. ---

A recent commercial for [McDonald’s](https://ispot.tv/a/oKr3) features what I always thought was a fairly annoying song about summertime, with little scenes of all the things about summer that are annoying. At the end, sitting on a park bench eating a fast food burger does seem right nice by comparison. And the song (by the Jamies) has begun to grow on me. ---

I like this American Home Shield commercial where Death comes to claim a woman’s refrigerator. “You’re killing me! Let me rephrase that.” [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/UHepqOW55tg/maxresdefault.jpg "Worst Commercial Ever? #4 - American Home Shield") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHepqOW55tg) ---

I always smile at the [girl with acne](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkv5OXP1VOA). “I have…jury duty…tonight!” And “retinoid” is just too unbelievable a word. Sounds like something in Star Trek. “Captain, the Retinoids are attacking!” ---

> [@Biggirl](#): > > Modelo’s Great Americans commercials. Fills me with Latina pride and makes me want to go pick up some Modelo Negro. I have no problem with the “Great Americans” premise, but the narrator in those commercials has such a smug delivery that I want to strangle him.
