commercials that annoy

[blas]

Haha, my trainer Ben and I used to sing that all night long for a few weeks straight when I was training with him.

Ramsay would walk by and shake his head and yell at us to shut up.

Then we started making fun of ShamWow...and we started our own company. ScamWow.

Any commercial with Billy Mays. He SHOUTS everything! Talk in a normal voice. You have a microphone.

He shouts because he believes. And apparently, that IS his normal voice.

a snuggie...please its just a bathrobe backwards
the 5 in one coat hanger...

A couple of my sisters want the snuggie. You hit it on the head...but I DO want those hanger things...

Bookstore, the Hair Machine guy's hair isn't necessarily a mess, but the styling just makes you go

EDIT: pics on request.

[kerrisan]

*hurls remote through TV*

My preschoolers have started singing that! >.< Fortunately I was able to turn it into a lesson on counting and measurement.

but I DO want those hanger things...

ever crammed too much into your closet at once and then left the clothes for a week or so

they dont smell so fresh when you pull them out again

not to mention your wardrobe rack is only built to hold up so much

It's not really one that I hate, but one that drives my wife nuts.

You know those Free Credit Report.com commercials? The ones with the catchy tunes?

Ever notice the old lady (she's in like 3 or 4 of them).

We wonder WHY does she tap along when the guy is singing in the restaraunt, but when he goes "Yehaa!" she suddenly becomes a catbuttfaced SC.

She likes the song but not the Yehaa?

Is she offended by the lyrics? Maybe she's the mother of the girl with the bad credit he married?

The wife's gone so far as to write to FCR.com. Still no answer.

WHY, OLD LADY? WHY DO YOU HATE HIM SO MUCH?!?! TELL MEEEEE!!!

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

Aw jeez, how could I forget the FCR commercials?

Or as I call it, F-R-E-E, not really, credit report dot com bay-bee!

I hate the commercials that scream at you. Annoy the crap out of me! Also, there's one for some camera with little kids running around in colored little spandex suits? Also annoys me.

The Sham-WOW commercials annoy me too, but the product? Love it. My grandma got me a set for Christmas a few years ago and I got a few more. We use them a lot -- cleaning up spills, going to the pool with the kids, cleaning the cars. They honestly do work and I really do love them. Hate the commercial though cause the guy creeps me out.

I dislike at least 90% of all commercials.

[Sonoma]

Now I'm going to be watching for the FreeCreditReport.com commercials.

Oh, and the Snuggie commercial drives me absolutely, freaking insane. Cm'on people, don't you know how to get your arm out from under a blanket to answer the phone, but still manage to keep most of the blanket on your body?

[protege]

Whoever invented the Snuggie...was on crack. There, I said it LOL
But, my mother has her own opinion on those things. She said she'd kick the ass of whoever gave her one

Oh, and those stupid "it's investor, not inwestor" commercials annoy me. They weren't funny the first time around, nor are they funny now. Yet, on CNBC, you see those every 5 freaking minutes.

With that said, most commercials just piss me off. It's downright annoying to be watching a flick, and get to see the *same* 3 or 4 commercials every few minutes. I know that they pay for the content, but still. They're why I don't watch much TV. If it's something I really want to see...I wait for it to come out on DVD.

[Lioness Blackfire]

I haven't seen one in a while (thank god), but the V8 commercials. GRRR!!!

The one I hate the most has someone eating a freakin' salad, and they're bopped on the head for it. Yeah. Because nobody, anywhere, is ever allowed to consume anything other than V8, ever.

I agree McGoddess but guess what.....he is getting his own show on the Discovery Channel soon! I heard it on the radio today and nearly went into the ditch.

He is?! All the more proof that it's due time to set up a fort with a table and blankets, and not come out 'till spring.

[SG15Z]

Yeah after I saw that TB ad I wanted to give the guy behind the counter a hudge tip. I mean it really pisses me off every time I see it. I hate just about all the local ads, especially car dealers, and lawyers. And of course just about all other ads run nation wide. Even DD (america runs on it) pisses me off cause there are no DDs out here! Gah!

Though there have been a few (like 5) ads that I do like because they were creative, unique, clever, and I actually wanted to buy it! The last one that did that to me was for something called Garmin. No idea what they sell or what they do (well I have an idea) but I liked their commercial. That counts in my book.

My best friend and I have decided that the sham-wow guy is milo from the oblongs all grown up.
