Why does one of the elephants have dreads? And now that I think about it, the main elephant sounds like Shaggy...:D

I thought that one was funny..... One of them has a gold tusk too, and I was lightweight offended.

Okay, that commercial about the kit-kat where the guy takes a bite and starts dancin in his office.....it's funny, but it's annoying, even though it doesn't last long at all.

The herbal essence commercials.....ANNOYING!! ALL OF THEM!!!

It was for a home furniture store called Quality Home Furniture, or the Big Q.

Well, this voiceover guy was singing, off key,"The Biiiiiiig Q, THE BIIIIIIIIG Q, QUALITEEEEE HOME FURRRRRNIIIIIIIICHURRRRRRR!

OMG, not only was it off key, his voice was straining and cracking trying to hit the high notes. It sounded annoying as Hades, and I cringed everytime the commercial came on.

I swear, I wished Simon Cowell was doing American Idol back then, b/c I would have loved to see him call this dude on the carpet and say, "Don't you ever in your life try to sing again. It was that horrendous. And I really mean this!"

C'mon, (former) Clevelanders, tell me that I'm not dreaming this up; it was THAT BAD!


Have seen it and yes I hated it also!!

I just saw a commercial for U.S. Expedition Gear Cargo Shorts.

Homeboy is picking up clothes of his bedroom floor and sniffing them, finds his shorts under the bed, and they are so funkdafied, they run away INTO the washing machine. Ol Boy pulls them out and puts them on.

The commercial ends with "crotchest funkiest" AW HELL NAW.

By the looks of the commercial he lives at home, he has no excuse for not doing his laundry. Isn't like he is short on quarters or has to haul it to some skeezy laundromat. If your clothes are so stanky, that they run away into the washer, do laundry or wear something else.

If you go to www.usxgear.com you can watch it yourself.

If you've read
this post, perhaps Serena is doing this with her clothes?

I really hate the commercial when the one chick says, "Such and Such, did you wear my black blouse?"

Then they cut away to the black chick doing the town and living it up in old girl's shirt.

Then the black chick is like, "Uh, does it look like I wore it?"

How nasty and unsanitary is that? How are you gonna wear old girl's shirt then stick it back in the closet? She couldn't even rinse it out, before she put it back.

If I was the "other" chick, I woulda whopped her natural black *zz.

Re: The Pepto Bismol commercial. Watch the lady on the end when she messes up. She starts LAHOA! LMAO

I cannot stand that commercial, but I ALWAYS watch it! :rolleyes: :D

I cannot stand our Six Flags commercial. I don't know if those with locations around the country have the same one or not. This guy is dressed up looking like Elmer Fudd. He begins to dance and such. The music really gets on my nerves. :rolleyes! But, I still watch it like a CASAS! :p

LOL!!!! That guy was pretty bad. I can't believe they played the commercial as much as they did (especially late at night). His voice as the worst!!!!

You mean the one with the shriveled up old man? That's the one I'm talking about.

AKA2D '91 06-15-2004 11:09 AM

Yeah, that is the one.

kissy324 06-15-2004 12:32 PM

I hate any MENTOS commercial. They hold the Mentos up (after eating one) as if that's what helps them get out of situations. If it were that easy, I would keep a pack of Mentos with me. :mad:

When I read the title of this thread that is the first commercial that came to mind! I think whoever came up with that ad should be made to watch it over and over again and then be fired!

WTH was that about?? Not only were they rats...they were mutated rats. When I first saw it, I was with my fam watching a game. Everyone was loud and rowdy. But as soon as the stupid commercial came on...SILENCE! LOL

Ok, this is not a TV Commercial (yet), but it is just so bad that I have to talk about it. One of the local radio stations runs a commercial for a bail bond company. It features a traditional west coast beat and rapper (it sounds like Sugu-free). Anyway, the ditty goes something like this:

I'm gonna call the bail man tonight
So I can be free
And go to the house



I just burst into laughter whenever I hear that ghetto mess

I don't like the new toothpaste commercial that shows out here. It's a little glove or something you put on your pointer finger and everyone in the commercial, like, rubs it across their teeth and does this stupid move while saying 'aaahh'. I don't know if anyone else knows what I'm talking about, but that's the only part of the commercial I remember because it's the only part that annoys me.
