The political ad to tell Thom Tillis how to vote on a bill. Is it just me, or is that woman cross eyed?

Any local car dealership. Scott Clark, Randy Marion, Toyota of North Lake, Toyota of South Lake, Toyota of Fort Mill, Toyota of Mint Hill, Toyota of Doofusville, they all suck just like most car commercials in general.

Unfortunately the only one I could tolerate was Reverend Rob and his healing of bad credit but those are long gone now and in it's place came more Scott Clark and Toyota of Dorksboro ads.

Nissan of Gastonia with Bogo the Clown. It's annoying, but apparently effective. I remembered it.


I've noticed a small trend toward catchy jingles for national advertisers. Farmers Mutual is pretty good. It sounds like late 1950's to early 1960's. Liberty Mutual is memorable: Liberty sung four times. Repetition put to song is always a good tool.

However, this emu thing they have going on now is plain stupid. It lowered my opinion of their company to the point that I wouldn't even get a quote from them.

The way she drones on and on... I don't even listen to what she's yapping about.

I am not going to call my congressman or senator because some actress on tv told me to.

Greedy Dan McCreedy.

So yeah, political ads can take a long walk off of a very short pier.

I hate those ads!!! I can't wait for them to vote! I'm hoping that McCready runs a last minute ad that drags hb2 into it.

Me too sb! Dan Bishop ...the father of HB-2! He's already cost North Carolina $1.3 billion in lost jobs ...How much is he going to cost your family!


or one with a bearded, biker guy in a tutu. He announces in a gruff voice "I still got my girly parts!" Then you see a little 4 year old blonde girl and the bearded guy says to the little girl, "Hey, do you want to go to the bathroom with me?" The little girl looks fearful and then turns to the camera and says "Thanks Dan Bishop!" The announcer then says "Be sure to thank Dan Bishop on Election Day for HB2!" Paid for by the Bathroom Monitors of America"


Bet he'd like that one!
