I'm with you on this. I can't stand this commercial and it's played frequently here, especially during the local news.

I can't stand the obnoxious women with their phones up in everyone's business, people come by and say "did you hear Bob is leaving," and they say "that's so 27 seconds ago," and they just keep doing that every time someone says something they have to chime in that they heard it "seconds" ago. I hate it, and it plays constantly.

It used to be that the most obnoxious commercials were those featuring babies "talking" as adults. Then, Subway came out with commercials featuring adults talking like children---these are even worse!

Those are awful! I can't even tell if it's real children talking, or people with helium, the voices sound so weird.

I cannot stand the creep that talks about his new Hoveround, now he doesn't have to go to the old folks home. I'd like to send him over a cliff. Won't cost him a penny, but they costs us thousands, eachy!!

Even worse is the "guy" version where they're at a football game and getting their kicks out of trying to make everyone else around them feel "less than", instead of having fun and enjoying being at a game. Their friends try to include them in a little bit of fun or share some news, and all they do is try to make their friends feel like crap. Yeah, that really makes me want to own one of those phones. The irony is these fools think they're so on top of everything but since they're glued to their phones they miss out on the game.

Instead of making me want to go out and buy that phone, that commercial just makes me glad I don't know people like that. I think "Gee, what a bunch of losers."

Two new ones for me:

That "Big, Big, Big, Small" one for Honda I think.

One I saw last night where Conan O'Brien says "Let me be serious for a moment" and then he just stands there with a grim look on his face.

Edit:

Now there's three:

The Hyundai ghetto rats.


I do think the VW commercials where the folks won't take the car back from a test drive are funny.

I agree -- there's nothing even remotely entertaining/redeeming about that commercial. Ugh.
