And just random thought, but I'm just so fucking sick of 95% of commercials making people look like complete idiots. Note to advertisers, being forced to hate the human race doesn't make me want to open my wallet kthx.

Yeah to expand on that point, I am really tired of people having to commit crimes or borderline committing crimes for laughs in commercials these days. I
can't think of a specific example but a fun game to pass the time during TV is to watch the ad's for crimes and seeing how many show that. I am talking
about physical violence and theft and stuff.
Also how men are always stupid in commercials, I mean it's bad for women too but I feel like men get more abuse, there's always some dumbass who needs beer and can't get it, can't choose his detergent without a woman there, or needs a woman to choose a new food or toilet paper or something. Although there is a reason for it... women make the purchases. But still. I also hate the ad for VW, where the yuppie and/or hippie couple is standing by a car and then the alarm goes off, and they are totally freaking out "ZOMG HONEY MAKE IT STOP PLEASE /cry QQ /cry QQ" and it's a guy who has the keys pressing the alarm, and for some reason the dealer is complicit in this strange torture and nobody is pissed that a alarm keeps screeching inside the dealership. Where the decibles in real life in a echoing small showroom would be like 110 or something. |

Does anyone really believe that pasta from freaking Pizza Hut would be just as good as a real Italian restaurant?
If it is, that chef should be fired. Or maybe I'm just grouchy cuz I'm on a diet and can't try it. |

I really liked the new bandaid commercial with the two cute kids frolicking around. At least, I did until the "I is stuck on bandaids".

I usually just hate the noisy commercials, but the Gossip girl one this week with OMFG across the TV screen is just not right. My son saw this commercial and
he knew what OMFG stood for, I can not believe this is acceptable these days in a commercial shown through out the day!. He is 11 so it is not like he is a
baby but knows OMFG is not nice and made the 11 yr old kid faces when he saw it.

I despise that insurance commercial where the bratty kid is putting things in the bank shoot and they are letting him!!! Haha its soo funny to see
children destroy property and almost kill someone. NOT. Then the guy is on the phone calling his insurance man. He should be running into that bank ready to
rip someone a new asshole! No one is noticing what the brat is doing either? Nice message being sent there. |

I hate that clueless bitch in the Pizza Hut commercials who has a confused look on her face as she asks "Pasta from Pizza Hut?"
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH!!! |

Plus, when I go to the driverup, I have to open the little door on the thing myself. Yeah, and no one was paying any attention to the kid at all except a little girl. |

They're so stupid, but I can't help loving those chip commercials (I forget what brand they're for) that advertise bags of chips that are the
"perfect size" and have that miniature guy get all indignant when his wife offers him a bag. I laugh every time he goes into the breadbox and yells
"Eat your chips, Marion!"

I actually kind of agree with you on that one. I'm not personally offended at all, but that's a bit much for a commercial. There was a Labatts commercial here that ran that had a guy in a store and a deer comes up bitching at him because they were out waiting for him to go hunting, at at the end the guy apologizes and the deer says "You fucking got that right". Obviously, the "fuck" is bleeped, but it's very, very clear what it is. Just a bit too far for a commercial, IMO. |

Yaeh I say the f word but I don't think it is appropriate for TV during the day or comercials. Anyway I must not be the only one that thought it was out of line. I saw the commercial last night and they dropped thr F, now it is just OMG. |

I dont get it. Was that supposed to be funny? I thought it was stupid and annoying. Plus the lead guy is ugly.

There is an ad which has been running for months for a cereal (sorry the name escapes me).Anyway the man is reading the box and says that it says on the box
that it helps with weight loss. The wife gives him a dirty look and says "what else does it say on the box" and he replies "shut up
Steve"...

I hate the new go phone commercial with the son and dad and mom all singing the meatloaf song. The kids face is creepy like he is singing a love song to his
dad. HATE that commercial and besides I had that brand of pre-paid phone and their service sucks.

now how about that monistat ad with the talking vag's? I'm not kidding, there are angry speech bubbles coming from the womans
crotch while she is "infected" and then happy speech bubbles once she's cured. ew, the only thing worse would be if the woman had a camel toe.
gawd, even viagra & cialis don't have talking penises in their ads.
ew. |

I'm hating all the Safeauto car insurance ads...
...especially the girl who complains that she's had "a few tickets and a few accidents. Well, more than a few. But I NEED my car." Just get off the road and save us the trouble, honey. The other Safeauto ad where the guy complains he needs to make choices based on the cost of car insurance gets me, too. Hey, dude...it's state law to have car insurance. Sorry it's costing you so much...mayhaps you should cut back on the DUIs. |
