Toys R Us commercials bug me

Giraffes have vocal cords, but rarely use them (e.g., when they are under duress). Geoffrey the Toys R Us giraffe is annoyingly verbose.

Oh come on. I think a spokesgiraffe is an inspired and unusual idea. I mean, what do you want, another freaking BEAR?

I’d prefer a spokes-ferret.

This Geoffrey is annoying. Bring back the animated giraffe family!

The current incarnation of Geoffrey is obnoxious and annoying. Make him go away!!

Yes, but does anybody else think the voice sounds like Tom Hanks?

I always chuckle when I see the Toys R Us commercial with Geoffrey calling another toy store, asking them if they have certain toys. “Do you have such-and-such? No? Do you have this-n-that? Well, WE DO!”

I think it’s the way his ears perk up when he says “WE DO!” that gets me.
