Yeah. Like Don Rickles.
The choir of chickens ‘singing’ “Sister Christian”. I don’t even know what is being advertised because I’m diving for the remote to make it stop!
There is an Audi commercial with an SOB who deliberately drives into a large puddle of water next to a bus stop, swamping the two people sitting there. Then the jerk smirks. New car or not, this miscreant deserves a rock thrown at him right through the windshield.
I can’t stand the latest version of the (I think) GMC commercial where there is a guy that is proud of himself for getting some exercise equipment on sale, and his smug asshole neighbor says “oh yeah? well I saved thousands” and points to his new truck.
Yeah, you also spent like $40,000 more, asshole.
There’s another new commerical out that I have to be misunderstanding. Guys and his friend are driving around town with a car full of crap, and he’s giving it all away to other friends. Or possibly returning stuff he borrowed, I’m not sure. Then at the end, he gives the car to the guy he was riding with.
All the while, “Turn out the lights, the party’s over” is playing.
So, uh…he’s planning to commit suicide, right? Giving away his possessions and saying goodbye? What the hell is supposed to be happening?
Yeah- the whole “Buick no longer looks like a Buick” and “Buick is no longer for people over 40!” crap.
Chase the youth market- at all costs!!!
The good news is I think the new Buicks look good (especially the Enclave). The bad news is I’m in my fifties. 
The old floks - “I met your grandfather under that tree…or was it THAT one?”. Irritating enough, then they drive away by a sign that says “Woodstock” IT DIDN’T HAPPEN THERE!!!
It was in Bethel, NY, some 45 miles away…ARGHHHHHH!!!
To be fair, nobody said they met at the Music & Art Fair so it’s entirely possible that they met due to a traffic jam on Route 55 between Woodstock & Bethel.
Any commercial involving boner pills, and every ad for the lawsuit du jour.
Right. So now the people over 40 can say, “Well, Buick doesn’t want our business. Let’s go somewhere else.”
Way to go, Buick, blowing off countless potential car buyers.:rolleyes:
And most people don’t start buying cheaper cars as they get older.
This one is irritating to the point of infuriation. The setting is a wedding reception set outdoors. From out of nowhere some cars approach and start destroying the tables, booths, and tents that are set up. And this is for a commercial advertising cars.
Looks more like Nazis advertising their politics by destroying a Jewish outdoor wedding. :mad:
That horrible woman is back, smashing some poor defenseless pretzels with a big book.
“See how easily I can smash them? Think what I could do to your man-parts if you displease me, or my husband, Colonel Von Shtupp, the camp commandant.”
For…Your…Own…Good!
Actors pretending to smash things really sets you off, doesn’t it? Just keep telling yourself “This isn’t real, they’re getting paid to do this. This is Take 12 of twenty, after which they all laughed, took off their makeup and went home…”
That’s how I handle horror movies.
(Or rather, don’t handle horror movies…)
Flo from Progressive has been irritating me and thousands of others for years.
There’s one of those ghastly prescription DRUGS commercials that points out “2/3rds of the people taking an anti-depressant do not get any relief.” THIS DRUG IS EFFECTIVE ONLY 1/3 OF THE TIME AND IT’S BEING GIVEN TO DEPRESSED PEOPLE???
SHIT.
Of course, the solution is adding another drug.
Never mind that. Tell me how this sort of thing is supposed to appeal to an audience. (Assuming the audience is not a bunch of armchair sadists.)
I, too, hate the Snyder pretzel woman.
There’s a car ad for-- I think-- Subaru. Maybe Volvo. I don’t hate it but it makes me laugh. A father is cleaning out his car. Pulls out a lollipop maybe and sees his daughter as a toddler. Then a hospital bracelet and sees his daughter in a cast. Then a flower and sees his daughter going to prom. Turns out he’s giving the car to his grown daughter. Every time I see that commercial I think “Damn! He hasn’t cleaned his car in 20 years?!”
And I still hate, hate, HATE that dealdash dot com woman who gets so freaking angry that people purchased things on the cheap. Why is she so mad that someone purchased a phone for ten dollars?
“How much did they pay for THAT?” she asks, steam snorting out of her nose.
“You don’t wanna know,” answers smarmy spokesman, backing away nervously.
