Did we mention the Tampon thats used to plug a hole in the boat?

Thats hella absorbable.

The Corti Slim ads remind me of the cheesy infomercial from Requiem for a Dream and creep me the funk out. And they're on ALL THE DAMN TIME.

Oh, and what is with the ads that are like "well this whitens your teeth 200 shades, but most dentists feel that's too extreme" and such? It's like, professionals think this product would be dangerous and life threatening but we DOUBLE TOUCAN DARE YOU to use it.

There's an anti-drug commercial that I saw as a little kid-the one with the girl sitting on the bed, hugging the bunny, and she eventually drowns. That one terrified me when I was little. I then saw that they were re-running it, and I still can't watch it!

I hate the one with the tomato emergency room. All the tomatoes are being brought in because people squeeze them to see if they are ripe. ewwwww

It has about made me swear off tomatoes.

The one where the guy walks down the street in a fur coat but when he gets home, you find out they are rodents who run off his body and back into their cages.


Also during the Christmas season I hated the Mojo Vox commercials.

a local jeweler ad...
it starts panning up on what appears to be a naked front chest area with breasts wearing a tuxedo jacket as a diamond necklace is pulled up with sexy music. about half way up, a discordant chord is played and the camera goes to the face...of the male jeweler. "if it looks this good on me, imagine what it will do for her."
big bad creep out.

Ok I don't know if anyone has said this yet or not, but there is this new Arby's commerical that completely freaks me out. The Arby's logo, the hat thingie, follows this guy everywhere, like he sees him in the parking garage, following him in traffic on the way home, sitting outside his house when he gets home. I don't know why it bothers me so much but man it is the worst thing ever. Plus, there is no Arby's that is even remotely close to CoMo so the ad being shown here is completely unnecessary.

I forget what this is even an ad for, but it's the one where the shrimp is eating something, and it turns out to be popcorn shrimp -- and not just ANY popcorn shrimp, IT'S HIS KIDS. YEAH, NOTHING SAYS "YUM" LIKE SHRIMP CANNABALISM. Whose great idea was that?

Burger King
 
I this this aired around the begining of the year and it was with a guy and the Burger King King in bed. The guy wakes up, turns over and the King is staring at him. The fact that the King doesn't talk, and his face is this huge plastic thing just creeped me out!
If anyone in Philly was listening to Y100 around this time, they had a hilarous discussion on it!! Ahh, how I miss Preston and Steve in the morning...:(

even the new BK ad is wierd with Hootie singing.

I just realized that it was Darius Rucker!! Sorry, it's still dumb.

Any, or all, of the prescription drug commercials when they list the possible side effects at the end.

Basically, they say, "Take this and feel like crap -- or even die."

Swell.

HAHA that's like Miss Piggy in the Pizza Hut commercials where she's eating pepperoni. Dude, WTF?

Ok, this is a local commercial because it's advertising this commedian who's coming to a near by comedy club. They show a video of him doing stand-up comedy. HE IS SO UNFUNNY!

"For women, if it isn't funny the first time, then it's never funny. For men, if it isn't funny the first time.........then it's funny the 10th time!"

"A TOE? I.don't.have.no.toe!"

:eek: :confused: :rolleyes:

That one is creepy too. Hes being stalked by that hat.

Another one that creeps me out is the Budweiser commercials that are old commercials, from the 60's and they have that really bad piano playing in the background, and those close ups of the people are REALLY close up. Those people drinkign look like my mom and her friends when they were in highschool. I cant handle that crappy music. I can hear it from anywhere int he house. I have to mute it.
