I hate that commercial too. It seems to me that would be a failed marketing campaign. I don't want to know if anyone uses tampons please and don't call me a pearl girl....

There are some pretty disturbing car commercials on right now, I think it's for KIA, where they talk about kids and say "Protect them while you can." It shows a kid attacked by a monkey, etc etc.

and I still don't like the pull ups commercial "I'm a big kid look what I can do....I can wear big kids pants too!" arrrggh that works my last nerve. ::) :P

Quoting:
I personally cannot stand any commercials for prescription medications.

People who have not heard of these drugs go to the doctor asking for them, leading to one of two possible actions: either the price of the drug is driven up in order to keep up with the demand, causing my health insurance to quit covering it, or it very quickly becomes an Over-The-Counter drug.

Which also causes my insurance to quit paying for it.

I remember seeing the " angry gumball" commercial for the first time, well, not exactly. It was the gumball running around a gumball machine. Then the messages " Why is this gumball so mad?" and " Tune in wednesday to find out". Pop up.
Then I saw it and I said " Wow, this is stupid."

Yea.  The one that really ticks me off is the commercial for Propolene.  Everyone in the ad jokes around and says "Gooooooolly, I don;t know how it works, it just does!  I kept eating everything I wanted and never exercised!".

Arby's Oven Mitt character is annoying.

I'd like to see a commercial where they "accidentally" leave Oven Mitt in the oven and slow-roast his butt.  :P

Quoting:
There are quite a few that I absolutely can't stand. For one thing, I hate any commercials with violence. Anytime I see one of those, I just change the channel or shut my eyes.

I also detest any commercial that takes a popular song, changes the lyrics, and use it for commercial purposes! Personally, I think that the FCC should ban that. It absolutely bugs me!  >:( (I mean, parodies are one thing, but using different lyrics for commercials is another.) For example, Robinsons-May (I think) takes the song "Always something there to remind me" (by Naked Eyes) and changes the word "remind" to "excite" for their current ads. A few years ago they butchered "We Got The Beat" by the Go-Gos. If I'm watching TV and a commercial like that comes on, I just hit the mute button. If such an ad comes on the radio, I change the station.

Recently a company was going to use Johnny Cash's recording of the song, Ring of Fire to sell hemmorhoid creme. but June Carter's estate would not allow it. (June actually wrote the song, so her estate's approval was needed).

Too bad.  That commercial would have been a classic.  ;D

That's not quite what I meant. If they use the actual recording of the song, I'm ok with that, but if someone else sings different words, that's where I go into conniptions. A better example might be when Home Depot used the Addams Family theme in their ads ("Do it yourself, do it for less...") about 15 years ago or so.  ::)

Don't hate it, but isn't it a little annoying when commercials sound like a familiar song?
The latest Home Depot commercials use music that sounds a lot like the first part of "Daydream Believer" by the Monkees.  
Great inspiration for a parody though...

Now, I don't have an Excursion, but I do have an Expedition.  Try fitting 2 car seats & another child in the back of something smaller (not to mention diaper bags, strollers, groceries, etc).  You can do it, but my poor oldest had no room to move.  AND, since I live in a semi-rural area, where they plow when they get around to it (or plow the driveway in), if there's a good snowfall, it's nearly impossible to get anywhere on said days without 4WD.  I had a van, but after I got stuck 3 times a couple of winters ago (twice because the plow hadn't come through yet, once because he came through, but dumped about a foot and a half of snow chunks at the end of the driveway), I got my Expedition.

There is a commercial for the Hummer that has a kid who enters a soap box derby with a Hummer-like vehicle. He then proceeds to take a short cut and win the race. What this commerical states to kids that if you have a Hummer, it is ok to cheat. NOT A GOOD MESSAGE TO SEND!

Cat
End Quote

Who said it's cheating?  Maybe the race was simply defined as "quickest time from Point A to Point B" and the other players just ASSUMED they had to stay on the road.

Reminds me of a few years ago, I was in a "creativity class".  The class was divided up into 5 teams.  We had to build the highest bridge possible, using only popsicle sticks, a glue gun, and glue sticks.

My team made the bridge OUT OF SOLID GLUE STICKS and the bridge was a monster!  The teacher agreed that we did not cheat, and explained to the other groups that THIS was the type of creativity she was trying to teach!  Heh heh...  ;D

(By the way.  Hummers are made about 2 miles from where I live, so I'm gonna rationalize the Hummer winning any way I can!  :P )

I'm sure it would be interesting... but I personally find it annoying. They've been doing that song for years; at first I didn't mind it, with just the cats doing it (altho I'm pretty sure it's some actor doing a voice-over), but when people started singing it on camera, it started to become bothersome (for lack of a better word). But I don't detest it as much as other ads.

The one I like is where there is a cat that starts singing the "Meow Mix" tune.  The woman hears this, smiles at the cat and then serves him up a big bowl of Meow Mix.

The husband, seeing all of this, starts to sing "Beer Beer Beer Beer", but all he gets is a dirty look from the wife and no beer.
