Another commercial which is REALLY bothering me is new Land Rover ones where the kid says "Just because you are parents, you don't have to be lame." The commercial's point is making fun of parents who can't afford a 'cool' vehicle. I find it absurd....ESPECIALLY with the economy as tough as it is. How insensitive and stupid.

If my kid at nine year old told me I was lame because of the vehicle I was driving...the little spit would be walking.

The music geared to little kids is a lot more lame than "Angel of the Morning."

I guess I am too old or something, but what does he mean about "more than four hours"? Is that an allusion to VIAGRA ? No, right? Not in a taco commerical.

The baby commercial bothers me also, my 2yrold on the other hand loves it. The commercials with the snowmen that turns into a boy(I think its for soup) is creepy. Then again any commercial that has snowmen commimg to life or melting to show there skletons is creepy to me.

I must say that I don't understand all that "hatred" towards Flo and the Progressive commercials. They are far from being the most annoying!


These are examples of real commercial hell for me:

She jokes about the old couple that does something that gets better with age.

Do we need sexual innuendo in car insurance commercials?

Almost forgot. Progressive Insurance is owned by George Soros.

Agreed. I think these Insurance commericals are becoming WAY too much now.

I don't hate Progressive Flo at all, but I do hate that little brat in the minivan commercials talking about how lame his parents are.

Kid needs a grounding. And a haircut.

Agreed 1000%! Especially when millions of Americans are out of work and cant afford Toyota's 40K gas guzzler. Give that boy a paper route!!

Kind of tired of the one with the crazy-haired, false eyelash clerk in white. Flo? She's kind of cute, but reminds me of a back stabber or a snitch. Fake.
