What commercial makes you want to shoot the TV?
Edited on Sat Dec-23-06 09:46 PM by Presidentcokedupfrat
Of all the ads on tv right now, the "He went to Jared" has got to be the most annoying. If I didn't know they were a jewelry store, I would have thought they were crack dealers or something.

Anyway, I've seen those ads so many times, if I had a gun I would shoot the TV (and I hate guns).

1. Or junk food sandwich peddlers...
Which TV advert DOESN'T inspire me to destroy the TV? Adverts are so heavyhanded and condescending, watching one merely has me thinking "I'll go elsewhere, thanks anyway."

3. Recently, it's been Eric CLAPTON
The first several times it seemed to be a surreal joke. He's just there, dressed like a teaching assistant, saying that in his teens he LISTENED to EVERYTHING, all his musical influences, that he had heard EVERYTHING, and therefore KNOWS ALL. Haven't seen it in awhile, so I can't summarize all of the strange creepiness it conveys.

6. Boniva
"My girlfriend told me she has to set aside time *once a week* to take her ostioperosis medication."
"I take Boniva, it fits my schedule."

Oh the humanity! Every week!?!?!? You have to take a pill every week??? I can hardly imagine how inconvienent that must be :sarcasm: It's like saying "I'd love to hang out with you later, but I have to take a vitamin so I don't have time". Please. If you only have room in your schedule for one pill a month, you've got more problems than just ostioperosis.

Signed,
Rockymountaindem: taking vitamins every day and still making it to bed on time for years.

7. Taking a pill is a complicated action....
And takes a lot of time....NOT.

I can see why that would make you nuts.

8. Oh yeah, that commercial is constantly on.
It is quite annoying. I've never heard of that store and I don't even know if there are any in my area. Not that I'd go to one any way.

10. The drug-pusher spot for genital herpes.
"Now I'm doing even more to prevent the spread of genital herpes."


No you're not. You're taking a @#Q!$@#% pill!

11. That stupid size 2 Nutrisystem bitch
Although today I saw a new spot that was hardly annoying at all. Maybe they got rid of that little &#*@!?.

12. That Volvo commercial...
...where he picks his little girl up from school looking like a blind person dressed her. And she gets in talking some mumbo jumbo ... "but his head was so tiny". That's always gotten on my nerves.
