I don't know if this one has been mentioned before, but I CANNOT stand the J.G. Wentworth opera commercials. Here's one of them:


J.G. Wentworth Launches New Television Commercial - YouTube

You might notice an Asian lady in the very back of the bus who isn't participating in the singing.

A foot fetisher's dream.

That Geico commercial with the "whee!"-ing pig is getting on my last nerve.

Citi: Omelet - YouTube

What's with all these Citi commercials where they go "Whoo whooo ooooo" near the end? I don't get it.

I'm pretty good at ignoring commercials, but for that one, I literally use the mute button -- it's that annoying.

I absolutely hate all the Weight Watcher commercials, especially with the American Idol winner. I supported her then, but don't like her anymore. I'm sure she's raking in millions with these commercials, which are just scams. How can people be so stupid that they can't make a meal for themselves and have to order them delivered? This makes them permanent dependents. And the garbage that all these microwave meals produce. eek!
Overweight people are worth billions for the scammers, when it just comes down to a few lifestyle changes. Consume less calories than you burn! Simple and cheap.

The pig commercial seems to be filmed through a dark lens. It looks like a scene out of a horror move. Can't you picture, when the pig first looks at the guy, the pig opening his mouth and sporting razor sharp pointy teeth?

Ok, I look at commercials with the sound off. Try that and picture what I just said. See if you're not converted.

I would like to see that Geico pig drop from that ski lift thing so we don't have to hear that "Whee" crap anymore. Then enter the Geico gecko who casually says to his dead carcass in his Cockney accent.."sorry about that old chap, I was getting tired of you also."
