The Kia (I think) commercial with the dancing robots and the chipmunks or moles or whatever that have gigantic loads in their pants. And this makes me want the car because… um… what?
I’m so glad it’s not just me that doesn’t get that!
Yeah, I also saw this and all I could think was “all hat and no cattle” but that doesn’t seem to fit as they weren’t really talking about competitors.
Because, “Bigger is Better!”.
And the hats keep getting bigger. So Blockbuster is better…
www.hawdilly.com is the site for the sweepstakes that Dish is selling.
Does it bother anyone else that he just grabs the fiber bar that she’s about to eat right out of her hand? I think it’s stunningly rude. Also, he’s apparently too much of a dumbass to tell a nasty fiber bar from a candy bar. Fiber bars do not taste anything like candy bars. I hate all of those lying Fiber One ads that try to make us believe those things taste good.
I don’t know if this one has been mentioned in this thread yet, but it was in one of the previous “commercials you hate” threads and they’ve been re-airing it on television recently.
WTF?!?!?! Is that REAL? OMG!!! :eek:
Yes, it’s real.
I wonder who’s creepier, those two kids in the giant lady costume or the Burger King.
Imagine the offspring if those two ever hook up…
I just realized that the creepy Snickers lady looks like the Duchess of Alba. That face will haunt your nightmares! I warned you–if you click on that link anyway, you have no one to blame but yourself!
I’ve got another to add to the list - I think it’s for Certain Dry antiperspirant. Some blond dipstick is talking about how her doctor recommended it, and it turns out she’s talking to Dr. Joe Studly, who removes his glasses and smiles sexily… I especially love the tag line: “Cool.”
Could anyone have written a stupider ad??
I saw her the other day, and my mid immediately went to the Snickers woman and Joan Van Ark.
Joe
What really irritates me, and it’s usually local auto dealerships that do it, is when they state in their commercials, “We’ll beat any competitor’s price or the car is free!” Really? I can just see a salesperson from the dealership coming out of the back room after “talking to his sales manager”, with the keys to my new car because he couldn’t come down $200 to beat the other guy’s price. This is just stupid, stupid, stupid. Stop doing it! Do your local dealerships do this?
Not that I can think of, but Larry Miller has been doing that with mattresses for as many years as I can remember.
That commercial is so ludicrous it must have been a high school film class project. I’ve literally seen better acting in a middle school play. Here’s a link for those who haven’t seen it:
And unbelievably, they made a second one! :smack:
Oh, and just to make it more grating, the product is spelled Certain Dri. Grrrrrrrr.
The editing just makes it worse. Kid samples the cereal and suddenly straightens up and opens his eyes as if shocked. Angle changes and he’s back to slouching sleepy-eyed again. Does he need a moment each morning to remember what the hell food is?
A local community college with “Lake” in their name was running an ad locally. The script was something like, "Water shapes, polishes, moves, blah blah. We call that “The Lake Effect.”
No. We call that “erosion.” Lake effect influences the amount of precipitation in an area.
Nothing like a school flaunting their ignorance.
Miller Lite’s “man up” commercials. Beer for men who are really insecure.
I can’t hate that. The look when that giant “woman” strokes the shopper’s chin cracks me up too much.
“I’m only helping!”
The fake woman’s voice makes me think of Julia Child.
