More very hate-able commercials

Would you prefer they show pictures? Or just a grumpy faced person stuck on the pot? A cartoon opiod companion is one of the least offensive ways to demonstrate and explain the problem.

I think you miss the point. Opiods can make the colon not active, not push the stool through. Eating a salad won’t help that. The muscles in the colon are not contracting properly.

Dude! You’re on a beach and you leave your talking wallet atop your shoes? Hope you didn’t have anything of value in there!

Not to worry. The wallet can scream for help.

The Febreze “nose-blind” ads.

Not because of irritating actors or smarmy graphics or stupid plot-lines; but because of the despicable tactic they’re using to sell the product.

“Hey! You may stink whether you realize it or not! You need our product because people might be talking about the smell of your house or car behind your back! You can’t be sure if you need it to be socially acceptable or not, so you’d better buy it!”

This one…hoo boy.

It’s supposed to be some sort of parody, but fails miserably to establish that. It features Jennifer Aniston having a nightmare that she’s on an airline that isn’t Emirates Air, and - horror of horrors - this airline doesn’t have showers or a bar.

This ad makes the Lexus 'December to remember" ads look like they’re aimed at welfare recipients.

Talking wallet???

Absolutely.

The cartoon just drags the thing out though…why not stick to the typical drug company formula of a quick ad stating the medication, its purpose, and its side effects while showing generic, contented people?

PNC Bank has one running now that features what turns out to be a ridiculously over-the-top wedding being imagined by a guy who’s watching his daughter read a book. The voiceover tells us something about the bank helping him to save for the most important event in her life. Kind of an odd departure from typical bank commercials where the parents are trying to save money so their kid(s) won’t be overwhelmed by student loans…

Here it is.

I hate Hyundai’s commercial on cheap prices “the competitors don’t know how we do it”.

That’s probably because you are ripping off from your employees. Asia is famous for under-paying mathematicians & engineers. Every time they emphasize their low cost, it just sounds like “we make our employees pay for your car”.

Hideous commercial

I’ve now seen the car commercial about the dog in a tutu a few times. Um, yeah, your poor emasculated dog needs a two hour car ride to get his manliness back. Or you need your balls back because your dog no longer has any. Or something.

Seriously, the power and control come to the driver, not the passenger with his head not even out the window.

The dog is happy as soon as the dress is removed. The car ride is unnecessary, misdirected, and stupid.

**Tangent, ** thank you! That girl is hot hot hot!!

These hormonal meds (cream, patches, pills) are prescribed to women in peri-menopause as well, since reductions in estrogen levels produce hot flashes, vaginal dryness, etc. These women are not yet officially post-menopausal (defined as one year without any menstrual period at all, and apparently spotting counts, dammit).

During that peri-menopausal period, a woman can indeed get pregnant. Many a woman has thought she was menopausal but was actually pregnant. :eek: (And that’s why I got a new IUD at age 45 while on HRT.)

I did not think GEICO commercials could get any dumber but they’ve succeeded.

Apparently Peter Pan not only graduated high school but returned from Neverland to attend his 50-year reunion. And brought Tinkerbell with him.

I hope The Mouse sues the hell out of 'em.

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell are public domain characters, anyone can use them unless they incorporate specific looks unique to Disney’s version. And even then, given the nature of GEICO ads, there’d be a very strong parody element they could claim as defense.

Anyway, how about that commercial with Dominic Purcell eating yogurt? Somehow it’s even more off putting than when Jamie Lee Curtis was talking about yogurt making her poop.

Can’t I hope even though nothing is likely to happen? Lottery players do that every day. :smiley:

I watch three CW shows, online. If I have to see this same stupid Sprint “Cut your bill in half” commercial too many more times, I’m going to slash my wrists.

Do you know what they call a pitcher who can paint the corners?
A Rembrant.
How do I know this? Because GMC must have the largest advertising budget ever and I must have seen that stupid commercial a hundred damn times!

I’ll take repetitive baseball themed car commercials any day over those super creepy Acura commercials with the realistic crash test dummies. D:

(I had never heard Rembrandt used in that context before…is it an actual baseball term?)
