Commercials you hate #31,686

I’m about to murder the bitch wife of the guy that just got unlimted mobile to mobile minutes for his family.

“Where’s that money coming from, Steve?”

“They were free.”
Boom! And her head explodes. Bitch.

The new Prius commercials where people are piled up to make other people.

If you’re making a commercial that uses a butt to make a nose then your life has gone down a wrong path.

Agreed. That commercial freaks me out!

Inexplicable Halo ripoffs fighting and interrupted by a Kia driving up and dumping dancing hamsters out. The worst part? They look like they have giant loads in their pants.

And the Uncanny Valley babies, but that’s been covered here.

I don’t suppose you have a link handy…?

I’ve seen references to this commercial several times on the Dope, but my Google-fu must be lacking because I can’t find a video showing it.

Here it is.

“Thanks for the falcon.”

Here you go.

I love this commentary.

Oh yes. That one’s awful. I always feel really, really bad for the guy, like he’s an abused child or something. Do not like.

Any of those McDonald’s dollar menu ads where someone is put in a “situation”. They then think how brilliant they are for choosing from the dollar menu, so they’re smart enough to figure things out.

I really hate the most recent one. Some guy is sitting with his girlfriend. She says something like, “My sister’s new boyfriend thinks that Sundays are only for watching Football.” The guy thinks about how smart he’s been choosing from the dollar menu, so he replies with, “He’s a jerk.”

WTF? I’m no sports fan, but if a guy wants to watch football all Sunday, what’s wrong with that, and why is he a jerk? If the woman’s sister wanted to set aside one day for a book club or knitting or whatever, would that make her a jerk?

Because many women feel that once they are in a relationship, you have got to do absolutely everything except take a crap together. nobody is allowed to have separate friends and hobbys.

Agreed on the unlimited calling one.

There’s a local one for a car dealership - the owner gives the spiel. This seems common with car dealers, I can’t understand why they don’t appreciate the importance of professionals.

There’s one for State Farm right now, the details elude my poor memory, but since I have had State Farm for 30 years and I find this one to be so bad, I often think when I see it that they are close to driving me to to switch. (But then, almost all of the auto insurance adverts annoy me, so I don’t know who I’d switch to.)

The McDonalds ad where the moron goes on about chicken Mcnuggets. I can’t remember when last I had fast food, so I know I’m not their target audience, but if I were, I’d definitely stop eating McNuggets.

That’s the point: like you, the guy also doesn’t see anything wrong with that; unlike you, the guy is brilliant enough to choose from the dollar menu and so can puzzle out that he should say “he’s a jerk” despite thinking “WTF?”

Actually many of the current AT&T commercials bug the crap out of me.

Jennifer is so pretty

Flash mob asshole

And of course the one already mentioned. Greenhouse bitch.

The shit end of that, though, is that if you and the woman don’t work out she will tell/be convinced by all her friends that you made her recluse and you never let her have friends. Even though she’s the one who had to spend every waking moment of existence together, you will be the one -when all is said and done- who was *so controlling *that she couldn’t have a life outside of you.

The one for some car where the people are pulled into an impromptu press conference. I don’t know what it is about it, but it makes me switch the channel or leave the room if I’m watching live. Otherwise, thank goodness for TiVo.

The new smart car commercial where everyone can only say big and then some loser sees a smart car and says, “Small… SMALL!”

My least favorite part is the end where it says, “Unbig. Uncar.” - They should add, “Unnotthegayestcaryoucouldbuy”

They say that car holds up in a crash and is just as safe as any other vehicle. Yeah right

Thanks! Jeez, you guys weren’t joking.

Progressive commercials. Flo was bad enough, then they added a dirty looking homeless guy who offers unsolicited insurance advise. But the ones who I detest most are the two white embarrassments in the light blue sports coats. When the fattter embarrassment rides a grocery cart through Flo’s store, the other guy twists his face up and snivels: “he’s my ride”. I’d pay to give that guy a taste of the back of my hand.
BTW, when did riding grocery carts become commercial maker shorthand for wild and craziness- I’ve seen the activity in at least 3 different commercials.
