Those Butterfinger commercials creep me out, especially when that guy pulls his false teeth out so that his wife can have a bite of his Butterfinger...GROSS! And the one at the movies...:eek: I hate seeing that girl with chocolate all around her mouth!

The Steve Madden Shoe ads and commercials are nasty! The girls in them look warped and deformed! Yuck!

I don't think anyone has said this...What about the Dial Soap commercial... Where this one sweaty gross dude comes over and uses the towel hanging outside the steam room and rubs it all over his sweaty body and then puts it back where it was hainging and then this other guy comes out of the steam room and is all clean and fresh and holds that old dirty towel up to his face is makes and "ahhh" so clean and refreshing noise!! "Dial...you're not as clean as you think!"

I CRINGE EVERYTIME!

Has anyone seen the commercial for the "REVO HAir Straightener" It's this brush that twirls in circles and supposebly striaghtens your hair! It is so CREEPY! All these women doing their freaky looking hair and the suddenly, they become these magical 80's styles. And how many of you actually style you hair smiling like that. Try it in front of the mirror and you'll see how ridiculous it feels. And this one lady like plants her face on this curling iron and it just makes me die laughing every time!

Ok, this just bugs me--why are their woman in all the cleaning commericals?? Especially pledge, they show women with the new mit that catches dust better. DON"T MEN DUST???? or clean? Orange clean actually shows a man cleaning, so I really want to buy that stuff now that I saw that. I just can't stand seeing all these woman home cleaning up after everyone. Show something that will make woman happy--men cleaning the house !!!

To add to that, most of the food commercials where any food prep is done, it's always done by a woman. Or any type of child illness, it's always the mom or the couple together who take care of the kid. Why can't it ever be just the man?

Ok the is the old school anti smoking commerical....

It's where that old lady has the hole in her throat, and she sticks her ciggerette in there and takes a puff then blows it out. Then says this could happen to you.

That commerical seriously freaks and grosses me out. I turn my head everytime it came on, cuz I couldn't watch it. It gives me the hebbie jeebies.

i'm not positive if it's dial, but there's another 'youre not as clean as you think' commercials.. .it shows a dog home alone, drinking out of the toilet, and then the lady that presumably lives there gets home and he runs down the stairs....ONLY TO LICK HER ON THE FACE :eek: :eek: :eek: yuck, and the worst part is, she's enjoying it...shes all like 'hey boy, hey buddy'..or whatever... its not like nauseating, but it made me made because now i feel like i should wash my dog's mouth out and brush her teeth if she ever wants to lick me!! YUCK!

maybe it's just me but the adds for juicy fruit gum have been kinda scary... in an evil amusement park character/barney way. It's that one with the giant fish walking around and there is some other girl and they sing that "caring is sharing" song and then when the fish steals the gum from the lady the lady decides it's appropriate to tackle the fish as it runs away. Perhaps it's just the whole fish out of water thing. I don't know... it's not really scary... just really WEIRD!

A new one!!!
 
It's for the new excedrin chewables and the mother is chasing her little boy all over the house. The voiceover introduces the new chewables as the mother is taking one and getting a glass of water. You think the water is for the excedrin , but no, she catches her son and makes him spit a goldfish out of his mouth and into the cup of water.

My other commercial is the Ikea commercial with the lamp. That guy that talks at the end creeps me out!

How about the AARP one with all those chinese men named Ping running around. I get all creeped out when he wakes his wife up in bed "Hello sleepy-doo!" Just the way he says it. And then she throws the flower at him, lol. Creepy.

I just saw this last night for the first time...Ping is creeping me out! Although I did see a really funny commercial last night for Toys R Us...mom walks in the door and says "boys, I have the new Grand Turismo"...and you see the kids running and dad running behind them. Because the kids are so far ahead, the dad jumps the railing and totally destroys the armoire but gets to the game first...it's really funny!!!
