Stupid commercials

EyeballGrowth · 11.09.2008, 12:15 AM

Do stupid commercials drive you crazy? in the last 8 years I think people who make commercials have realized " We can make funny commercials! Let's make LOTS of funny commercials " but what they don't realize is that their commercials are stupid and annoying. Like the burger king simon and garfunkel one.

Even worse are the commercials that try to be sassy. usually for a shampoo or a more feminine product

Not real, but still funny as hell.

The Sonic commercials annoy the fuck out of me.

pbradley · 11.09.2008, 01:12 AM

I've always been pained by commercials. It bothers me when people place a monetary value on perception (i.e. the time it takes to see an ad). Like a furious buzz of flickering lights trying to steal my attention.

ploesj · 11.09.2008, 06:07 AM

i hate commercials. plus they miss their point with me, since i never believe them and fail to take them seriously.

EyeballGrowth · 11.10.2008, 12:50 AM

You know what is annoying to me about the sonic commercials? The fact that there isn't a sonic within 500 miles of where I live, yet they air in my state.

Man you know what commercials I HAAATE, these direct tv ones where they get original actors from popular movies to reenact famous scenes while talking about direct tv. Those make me want to KILL the tv. The damn mute button on my remote doesn't work.

That dumb "Saved by zero" Toyota commerical makes me LUNGE for the remote.

phoenix · 11.10.2008, 03:12 AM

I hate the ones that pretend to be tv talk shows.

discussing potato chips and stuff. wtf.

cryptowonderdruginvogue · 11.10.2008, 03:14 AM

The new "I'm a pc and..." Windows commercials

more like

"I'M A PC AND I CAN'T AFFORD A MAC"

Antagon · 11.10.2008, 07:32 AM

Has anyone seen the Cadbury commercial with that drum playing CGI gorilla? What the fuck does this have to with chocolate? By the way: Phil Collins is a bad Soundtrack choice to begin with!

stu666 · 11.10.2008, 07:36 AM

yes and the extended version is even more fucked up

Cadbury Gorilla - In The Air Tonight (Extended Mix)

Thankfully that monstrosity hasn't made its way to the U.S....
Go on youtube and look up eagleman... if you can find a commercial worse than that, you win something or another XD

jimbrim · 11.12.2008, 10:24 AM

EVOLghost · 11.12.2008, 01:37 PM

I've always enjoyed the BK ones....(except for the reverse pickpocketing)
However this is one of my faves it's a VW commercial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA6EL0FPZHA

jennthebenn · 11.12.2008, 01:40 PM

The freecreditreport.com ads with that douchebag singing/rapping some
cheesy riches to rags tale, and oh how it could have been avoided if only
I'd known about this website!

pokkeherrie · 01.11.2009, 07:22 PM

I don't know if this is being aired in other countries too, but I'm still not getting used to the new commercial for Lactacyd on Dutch television....
