The freecreditreport.com commercials with the stupid jingles. I have figured out that I about 6 seconds to switch the channel or press pause on the DVR when the pirate restaurant ad comes on or I will be singing the jingle for 3-4 days. Plus the guy is the worst lipsyncer ever. And these commercials keep showing up more and more and are on the radio now too!!! Someone please make them stop!!!

I also hate the social security disability attorney ads that I see on cable news channels. The lawyer comes on looking like Joe Panama and says something like "We'll deal with the government. You have enough to worry about." Something about that hat just feels like he is flipping off the viewer. But it is probably just me, I'll admit.

Thanks for letting me vent.

There is a Hillshires Farm commercial that gets me. The one where a drill sargeant-like character, in what looks like a police station, says, "When I say Hillshire you say Farms."

Yes, and I think I know what it is, too:

What about that new one where the girl walks all around NYC I think exposing her freshly shaved armpits or her deodorant......That one is bizarre. Actually I am so irritated by the ad that I don't know what the product is for.

The (either best buy or circuit city) commercial with the Rihanna song playing, quickly hit the mute button.

Yeah, that's the one I cited too. It is for Secret deodorant. I have used Secret for many years but that commercial has actually irritated me so much that I am going to buy a different brand the next time. Hopefully enough people will do that and they will get the message.
