Maybe I should have just said all of 'em annoy me...

Do you receive channels out of Atlanta Ga.? It sure sounds like their commercial lineup.

You know the sad thing?

You guys remembered every one of their products. And SOMETIMES, that is enough to get you to try them, even if you hate their commercial.

They are just like little kids in the way they manipulate us sometimes!!!

I think the Burger King King looks suspiciously like George W. Bush!


I vote for the commercial that plays Cat Stevens' "If You Want To Sing Out, Sing Out" in the background and has Whoopi Goldberg handing a iPhone-type device to two guys I don't recognize. Wouldn't be annoying except they show it too much.
Also the Verizon commercials with the nerd wearing Buddy Holly glasses who has 200 people standing behind him wherever he goes, advising people to switch to Verizon.

I hate those Febreze ads with the guys disguised as a tiger, a pirate, a horse, whatever. So lame! They are as creepy as the burger king!

The Ameritrade commercials with the talking babies, when they aired, I dunno, around February? Yeah. I expected new ones showing that depressed snotnose crawling towards the office window and jumping out.

I hate them all! Have you noticed how the volume increases when a commercial comes on - I immediately mute commercials when they come on.

Geico, can't stand any of the commericals!

I have to race to the remote to change channels. Thank goodness for DVR
my 4 and 6 year old boys sing that song! They have no idea what it is for, of course!
