Mine is Bob who is on male enhancement drugs.. I'd like to slap that stupid grin off his face..Also off his wifes face.. And then he dives into a swimming pool and looses his swim trunks..
Then they give a warning if the erection lasts for over 4 hours, call your doctor.. I'd be calling Ripley's Believe it or Not at my age..[;)] Or I may be grinning like Bob..

The Bob one is a close second
It seems that there are way more commercials when watching directv.
Does it irritate ya'll that you are paying $65 a month to watch commercials that cost the merchant $1,000,000.00 per min? I figger that the least McDonald's could do is pay my cable/sattelite bill. I'd be a whole lot more inclined to buy thier burgers if that were the case.
Then I could get to enjoy those silly gay men on mythbusters commercial free!

Is that Toyota commercial, where it crushes the little spider thing, then sucks up the fluid, trying to tell you it's OK to take anything you want, as long as your bigger?
Or is it telling you it's OK to steal fuel where ever you find it, as long as there are no survivors?
In fact, I think I'm inspired to make that my avatar.

Their prices must be much higher than all the other insurance companies since they are advertising on all channels. Their marketing budget for the airtime they buy must be equal to the US military budget!
But I do get a kick out of most of the new drug/medication commericals. Most of the side effects they list have got to be worse than the original problem.
...don't gotta go no more...."
Any commercial that takes a halfways decent rock tune and turns it into an advertisement is an abomination, like Kraft cheese with their "Crumbelievable" version of the INXS song "Unbelievable". I cringe every time I hear it.
Chevy spoiled forever my desire to hear the song "Like A Rock".
High end gifts for ladies adds....shown while were at work targeted at ladies telling them if your husband /boyfriend doesn't treat you this way/buy you this diamond...perfume...new lexus he wouldn't marry you all over again in fact he might be having an affair....
ab lounge sit up chairs...especially where the girl displays her fat/before jeans...no chance she borrowed them for the commercial?
and the hot 50 year old gramma? 1 gramma in the world looks that hot from an obvious boob job and tons of makeup and excellent genetics (im sure she exercises too) but its all the result of using the bowflex...
without a doubt the Burger King "King" is the most idiotic.

The "Smilin Bob" commercials were awful too. Thankfully that company was shut down for fraud, and we'll never have to see one again.

Uhh, "Unbelievable" was done by the band EMF, not INXS.[8D]
Ooops, sorry...I knew I should have Googled it before I posted.[:I]
I hate the KFC commercial where the kid is spooning out all the mashed taters while his sister is waiting for her turn. I want to reach in the tv and slap the pee outta that kid and say pass the friggin' taters boy!!!!
....Another cringer is Pepto Bismol. Several variations of fruity fellas grabbing their butts to the tune of "upset stomach, indigestion, diarrhea". A real catchy little tune.....[xx(]
YES!! And have you ever noticed how many times they run that right at suppertime? Sheesh!.
The BK ads are just creepy and weird.
As commercials go, the V-Dub ads with the Teutonic Hip-Hop dude were great.
Last fall Nissan ran a commercial during which the insensitive SOBs played the theme song from the movie "Bridge over River Kwai". A lot of GIs died there.
umm, the "Colonel Bogey March" was published in 1914, long before WWII and even longer before "Bridge on the River Kwai"

Don't forget: oil leaks, burnt valves, broken tie rods, cracked heads, * leakage, canabalism, tooth decay, skin falling off, bed wetting, warped rotary girders.... Yea, you get the idea...
six flags with the horrible techno and dancing old guy
Did you by chance see the Letterman spoof of that where the red head guy gets in the bus and backs over the guy. Quite funny. I really hate though is the anti-smoking commercials with the claymation. They're making smokers out to look like bad people and they're just normal Americans.
Haven't turned my TV on in months.
OH yeah, I'll run right out and buy some......
