Commericals that Crack You Up
 
which ones are out there that make you laugh?

Right now my absolute favorite is the Burger King ad with the talking menu. Who's seen it? I love that it's Adam Carolla doing all the voice. He's such a smart ass, I love him! I think my favorite one is where the menu is on the golf course....

It's not real new but the car commercial where the mom tells her daughter she was named Savannah bc he was conceived there and then the daughter realizes her sister is named after the family car bc she was conceived there too...good grief makes me laugh even thinking about it

anyone remember the sprint commercial (i think it was a phone company one) with the busy working mom and her kids who she finally takes to the beach after relentless begging that morning and the cute red haired daughter yells out "Hey everybody It's time for the meeeeeeeeting!!!!"

There is one for a car insurance company, Geico, I think. It shows a mom running down the street with a "Proud Parent of a Something Middle School Honor Student" bumper sticker on her butt. She runs up in front of the school to "pick up" her daughter and starts tooting an air horn and her daughter is SO embarassed. It's totally hilarious!

I saw the Savannah car commercial one too... that was cute!

I love the commercial where the woman is talking about raising 3 boys and how much they eat, and then they show the one kid standing in front of the refrigerator in the middle of the night eating a stick of butter. The dad comes over and says, "Are you eating butter?" For some reason I laugh hysterically every time I see that.

yes! That commerical is the first one I saw and my friends and I nearly fell off the couch laughing. It was hilarious. I loved how the students were laughing at themselves too and werne't offended. I mean, it's Adam Carolla giving you shit, how can you not laugh? I'm kind of bummed they took that one off the air.... but the others are funny too. Did you see the one in the elevator?

Have you seen the new Celica commercial where the car is parked on the street and a dog comes running at it like it's chasing the car, and then slams into the back of it. The caption is... "fast" I cracked up when I saw it Sunday :)

The1calledTKE 10-03-2002 02:06 PM

I just saw a comercial on a hunting channel for a squirrel proof bird feeder. It had the mission impossible theme playing when the squirrel trued to get the bird feed. After it could get it the camera paned to the squirrel making squirrel noises shaking its fist (paws what ever a squirrel has) at the bird feeder.

ilovemyglo 10-03-2002 02:10 PM

zntke seeing as who your S.O. is Iwould think you would take the time to learn more about squirrels.. shame shame!

The1calledTKE 10-03-2002 02:15 PM

The commercial was cute I didn't say I hated squirrels. I have watched squirrels run arounf the yard and other places with my S.O. many times.:D

CC1GC 10-03-2002 02:26 PM

those pop tart commericials with the guy going...."BAMMMMMMMMMMMM"....
solid.

pinkey08 10-03-2002 03:11 PM

I like the Car Fax commercial where at the begining of it they show a man in the passenger seat of a truck talking to someone that is driving and it turns out to be his dog and then the dog sees some ducks and starts driving towards them and they crash into a pond. :D

I love that commercial too! It reminds me of my 18 yo brother, who I swear eats like a horse. BTW, it's an ad for MasterCard..

sororitygirl2 10-03-2002 06:38 PM

What are the Mike's Hard Lemonade commercials?

MasterCard!!!

LeslieAGD 10-04-2002 08:07 AM

Mastercard? Is it a commercial about putting your groceries on your credit card or something?


The commercial that always used to crack me up was for FedEx. It was two marketing guys showing a GI Joe commercial to their boss but all the GI Joes were wearing Barbie dresses because they didn't use FedEx to get the doll clothes in on time.

Sorry..thinking of the wrong credit card. It should be the Discover card. Basically, the commerical is about their cashback bonus. In the family commerical, its about the mother after buying groceries can start saving up for a vacation without her 4 sons.

Okay, thanks for the clarification. I will keep my eyes posted for the commercial! ;)

I just read the other day that they were pulling that commercial because it was insensitive. If I find the article I'll post it.

I like the commercial where the husband gave his wife a Valentines Day present but she didn’t open it. So the husband panics and rushes to open only to find the Red MM guy passed out inside. Cracks me up every time.

Here a couple of adds that I love

three2tango 10-04-2002 11:18 PM

I love the Zest commercial where at the end it has a guy on an elevator with an older woman. The older woman nuzzles up to him and says hellllllloooo. funny stuff



On this whole thread we sound like: "And um yea, he was all, and so she was all, and I was all.....like this one time at band camp"

I love this commercial! :)

My current favorites are the headache remedy that dissolves in your mouth-save your water-The first, a woman is in pain and rubbing her forehead. She slips a headache tab in her mouth and throws the water on her male companion. He says, I didn't KNOW it was your sister.

The second one, the Mom is chasing her son all over the house and she goes for her headache med. Fills a glass of water, grabs her son who spits the goldfish into the glass. She says-You have to stop DOING this!

These crack me up!

LeslieAGD 10-06-2002 09:43 AM

I just saw the Mervyn's commercial where the lady is standing at the door going "open, open, open" and the store employee tries to open the door but the key breaks. Then she bolts up in bed screaming and the husband rolls over and says "which one was it? looses key or key breaks?" :)

Yeah, I heard that they might. Apparently someone found it offensive to community college students.

:: shrugs ::

I thought it was cute and I went to a community college for a year. And those kids must have thought it was funny too because they were laughing *and* they signed a release to be in the ad. Plus, I heard that BK put it through a bunch of test audiences and they were okay with it too. Oh well, can't please everyone I guess. But last I checked it was still on ads.com
so you can check it out for yourself.

Love that one. Anyone who is related to a 3 year old knows thats a possibility.

Move over bacon, here's something leaner...

ZTAngel 12-17-2002 09:54 AM

There's a new children's Tylenol commercial where this kid's sister is talking about what a monster her brother is. She goes, "Luckily today, he's sick." She then thanks God (this little girl is so adorable). All the sudden, the little brother starts terrorizing this girl and her friends. She then asks her mother if he was given Tylenol cold. The mom answers yes and the girl rolls her eyes back.

Of course, I also love the Axe commercials. Those are hilarious.

THE JOE BOXER COMMERCIALS!!!!!!!!!!!

White_Chocolate 12-17-2002 10:33 AM

i like the sprint phone where the girl has the birthday party and her parents give her a bear. . .but it's supposed to talk and it doesn't. . .so her dad rips off the head and sticks the phone in. . .'want to play tea party'

Dionysus 12-17-2002 10:44 AM

I HATE the Joe Boxer/Kmart commercial with the dancing black guy in boxers! :mad:

But, I love the commercial with the little girl on Santa's lap asking for a power tool for her dad. At the end she looks at her dad and say "do you think he bought it?" hehe :)

Steeltrap 12-17-2002 03:35 PM

Shaq
 
Any Shaq commercial, going back to the old ones for Pepsi, make me laugh.
:D

An old Charles Schwab commercial that made the rounds of the Sunday Morning Talking Heads shows.

A little girl is listening to a bedtime story--about how a prince will one day ride up on his white horse, take her to his castle, and marry her and give her everything she wants forever (insert medieval recreation footage throughout tale.)

Stops short: "But if it doesn't work out, you'll have to know about mutual funds...."(insert other technical talk about high-end financial planning).

At the last line, you see that the lady telling the story is Sarah Ferguson, aka Sarah, Duchess of York.

I fell off the couch the first time I saw this!

I recently saw a holiday commercial for beer. There was an apartment building. One floor had a holiday party, another floor up there was dancing and hoopla and whatnot. And you see it from the outside so you can see that it is definitely snowing outside. However they pan to the top floor to find naughty corporate execs and employees shreading documents and dumping them out the window so it only appears to be snowing. The tag line is "for those who were naughty this year, happy holidays anyway"

Cracked me up. :D
