What about the creepy old black lady that appears out of nowhere in the Ikea commercials???

The commercials for the new Travel Channel show Dr someone BITE ME completely gross me out.
Especially airing constantly during Bourdaine's show.
Seriously, leeches bleeding all over some guy's chest? ugh. |

The McDonald's salad commercials.
"They're not customers, they're connoisseurs." Yeah right, because food connoisseurs tend to eat at Mickey D's. For that matter, I hate any commercial that shows cheerful (and helpful) fast food workers. In real life most of them are one step away from spitting in your Happy Meal. I doubt they give a crap whether you enjoy your salad or not. |

^ Along that line of thought, I love how in all fast food commercials, the customers are always fit and attractive. I always want to say "Yeah, that looks
like someone who lives for their big macs."
I guess selling the reality of what regular fast food does to you doesn't sell the shit. |

Keep telling yourself that. Everything gets spit on & worse. True story: We have a little Mom/Pop hamburger stand here in our little town. I used to love their burgers & fries. There was a huge scandel last summer when the grandson of the couple got caught by his grandma jerking off in the mayo jar. He admitted he did it all the time. The Board of Health closed them down after the grandma called the sheriff. It has since been reopened by the same couple but no sign of the grandson working there. I still get ookie just driving by the place. No more Harry's Burgers for me. |

Just don't order anything with mayo on it. :)

Can't. They make a mixture of mayo, mustard, chopped onions, chopped pickles & put that on every burger then add fresh tomato slices & fresh
lettuce leaves. It's what made the burgers unique & delicious. God knows how long the extra ingredient was in there & might have been what made
them so tasty.

I've only caught it once, but there's an "as seen on TV" product I haven't seen before. It's a bathtowel with armholes, so it
doesn't fall off when you're drying your hair, going out to pick up the paper, or hang with your peeps by the pool. Men can wear it toga style. Darnit,
I didn't catch the name, but it's hilarious.
It's the snuggie of bathtowels. 'Cause regular towels are sooo inconvenient. |

Conan had two leading pitchmen on tonight, including Billy Mays with the black beard, and bitched loud and hard about how his Zorbie was the original Shamwow.
Pretty funny -- these guys appear to really take up the cause of their gadgets. |

I dunno if it's been brought up, but there's a commercial for "The Diabetes Care Club" where they send you a brand new meter if you call
their number or something and in the commercial is an older black woman as the "real consumer testimonial." I swear to God, I think that lady is the
chief from "Where In the World Is Carmen San Diego?" Glad to see she's still working. <3

Has anyone seen the new Starburst commercials? Apparently, eating a Starburst is a contradition; it's a solid, but juicy like a liquid. Okay, I get that
part. What I don't get is why they needed to have a "contradiction" show it off. A Scot-Korean. Cuz apparently, that's a contradiction and
shouldn't exist.

My fave part of infomercials is when they make people who do things the 'inefficient' way seem like complete tards. I never in my life thought
they'd be able to do that with using a towel and/or bathrobe.
