Haven't seen it in a while, but the Boost commercial with the chick at the hair salon yelling "WHERE YOU AT?" over the phone to her boyfriend who's floating in a pool. He answers "Where YOU at??" and they go back and forth like this. Annoying.
I also hate when companies (like Boost and McDonald's) try to be hip and cool using slang terms in their ads. example: "I'M LOVIN IT!!" Lame.

That reminds me of the Taco Bell one that was airing over the summer, where the two scrawny little white guys pull up to the drive-thru window and start ordering their food-but they do it by rapping! I really hope no one thought this was cool and tried this-I feel bad for any employee who had to put up with it!

I hate all commercials, including but limited to: the lawyer commercial call ask....... GEICO commercials every 5 minutes which tells me they are ripping the customers off if they can afford that many commercials and they are sooooo stupid. Pharmaceutical commercials, OMG why would anyone take them with all the 5 minutes of side effects that could occur.
I would pay to not have to watch any commercials. Not interested. Whew, I feel better already

All those male enhancement commercial. And that stupid Arby's Commercial where the man is waiting for his wife to bring him a sandwich. In fact I can't think of any commercials I really like but there are several that get on my nerve.

I think its a jewlery commercial. Young man and woman in some sort of rural hi-tech looking cabin, looking out the window at a big storm. At a big thunderclap sudden the woman whirls into the man and says something stupid like "take care of me" or some crap and he says something equally stupid.
You have got to be kidding me. That someone could write this and then get approval to produce makes me very afraid

The Humane Soc ad with Sarah McLaughlin brings to mind the plight of animals which makes me sad but I could never hate on it - you guys are really unkind

I hate the commercial for diapers (Huggies?) where the moron father attempts to change his baby's diapers on a pile of coats on a bed. The kid shoots up a stream all over the coats. That's disgusting. And who but a total idiot would change a baby on top of other peoples coats?
