as long as we're resurrecting old annoying ads.....
I realize its trivial and I shouldn't let it bug me but that commercial is total and utter garbage. Each of the people in it along with the writer, director, camera need to be donkey smacked for the better part of a month.gravitas said:
Any commercial played in a movie theatre...
...because if I wanted to watch commercials with the show, I wouldn't bother going out to the movies, I would just stay home and watch TV!!!
My God, is there no escape from the damn things anymore?!

The newest Geico commercials. Especially the Little Ritchie one. Awful.
I want the little Gecko back.

I have seen a really annoying ad several times now late at night (on CNN etc).
The announcer loudly says:
It shows a lady rubbing what appears to be a gluestick on her forehead.
There is no explanation of the product but I gather that it is for topical headache relief.
I'd really love to go and doctor the tape and replace HEADON! with HARDON!
The announcer loudly says:
HEADON! Apply directly to the forehead.

ya that one is annoying but they seem to be playing on that with their next run of adds where a different actor comes on and slags the "apply directly...." line......problem is that they're just as annoying esp. with the one guy who looks/sounds like a black harvey fiersteinluv-em-n-lv-em said:
What about that god awful one that they are using "I've been everywhere" by Johnny Cash?
For fucksakes.

Molson Canadian commercials. I know it's politically correct to support responsible drinking but these 2 ads are so phoney.
1) Where the 3 guys at the lake notice someone has stolen a 6 pack of their beer. Then it cuts to the dude on the deck announcing that he "found" 6 Canadian. There is a large group on the deck. Big Freakin' deal, you have 6 beer. What? We all get a sip?
2) The group of 20 somethings at the cabin for the weekend and they ask who is bringing the beer. When the guy finally shows up at the cabin he has brought a 24. Again, a group at the lake for the weekend and only 24 beer. Oh my, we all get 1/2 a beer a day!

Good call pantsnake! I've had the same gripe about the group with "Bill" bringing the beer. I guess they're only going to be there for an hour.
BTW who cares if Dave's bringing the ice... it's a beer commercial. They have a refrigerator to chill the beer and as pantsnake said they'll down them all before it gets warm anyways.

likewise with those useless kraft dinner commericals with the two faggots in the dorm room and the hot tub full of wankers who look like they've just come from a d&d convention......having some spork like food doesn't attract hot women!Pantsnake said:
I really hate that one prescription drug commercial on right now. I can't recall the name, but it sounds like a fairly well known one. What makes it so bad is that they don't tell you what it's for.... at all. They just drop the name. Old women, young men, it's the drug of choice! "Just ask your doctor...." they say. It's not even suttle like Viagra or Cialis.
You'll see that in a number of different prescription drug commercials, and there's actually a reason for it. IIRC in the US (possibly here in Canada too, I don't know) there's a regulation that if you advertise for a prescription drug, and you actually say what the drug is supposed to do, you also have to list all possible side effects. If you see an ad for a drug that doesn't say what it does, it's because they don't want you knowing what the possible side effects are...Ottawa-22 said:
Worst ads
I can't stand those Subway ads with Jon Lovitt. Bring back Jarod! And for God's sake, what is with all the lizards, toads, monkeys and tropical fish that they use to flog cell phone packages? I don't get it.
But what really makes me want to drive into a ditch are those annoying Grolsch beer commercials that they play on the radio. I can't understand word that jackass is saying. It may taschte great but I change the station every time it comes on
