Ads that make you go "Ew"
 
Glad to see slate.com did an article on the creepyiest commercial to grace my tv in months.

The Ballpark Franks, "Girthy" ad. That dude creeps me out.

See story:

http://slate.msn.com/id/2102940/

Agree with me its a creepy ad?

Got your own creepy ad?

Plugging the leak in the rowboat with a tampon. Ew. I'm sure the date went well after that.

OH. MY. GOD.

That freaks me out everytime. Who, for the love, would DO that? Who would even THINK to do that?! I'm married, and I still wouldn't pull out a tampon for recreational purposes...much less on a date.

So disturbed.

I also hate the one for the Viagra-like medicine where the voice over guy says, "if you have an erection for more than 4 hours, consult a doctor.":eek:

I always cringe after hearing that. :eek: I mean I know it can be a serious problem, but must you put that in an ad?

AOTTAdvisor 07-08-2004 11:46 AM

Not sure how many states have this one but I swear to God, the dancing guy on the 6 Flags commercials CREEPS ME OUT. If he drove up to my house, I would lock the door and not come out, let alone let him take me to 6 Flags!!!

tinydancer 07-08-2004 11:50 AM

Well, I like the 6 Flags man - I think he is funny. The commercial I think is way gross is the one about toenail fungus and it has all these creepy little fungus people jumping all around under the nail. I have to leave the room when it comes on.

My thing with that one is............what exactly could the doctor do for that? LOL

We got the Six Flags man, he looks weird, but my daughter likes him lol.

I didn't like the one on MTV for Punk'd where the family is at Thanksgiving dinner or something and he fakes a heart attack. That was NOT cool.

Peaches-n-Cream 07-08-2004 12:40 PM

EWW I just saw the Girthy commercial. EWWW!

I like the 6 Flags old dude. I'm hearing the music in my head as I type. he's on buses all over New York City.

There are commercials for medicines that have side effects. The side effect sounds worse than the original problem.

smiley21 07-08-2004 01:21 PM

i hate that commercial for the KY Warming Liquid:o

dzsaigirl 07-08-2004 01:25 PM

I hate that commercial where they talk about "body soil" and they show bubbling nastiness on this bed that a guy was about to land on.

There is just something wrong about this commercial. I always change the channel when it comes. It grosses me out.

I agree I hate that commerical but what always cracks me up is that the girl whips out an entire box of tampons and I always think how I don't know any girl who carries her tampons in the box. Talk about a bulky load in your purse...no one does that!

pixell 07-08-2004 02:13 PM

The girthy one is definitely the WORST! The credit card one with the guy talking in the girl's voice about being the "prettiest girl in the whole development!" creeps me out majorly. My boyfriend does the voice to startle me. He makes up for it though by making my stuffed turtle dance and singing the "Ain't we got fun" song from the commercial with the dancing turtle. Hmmm..Maybe I watch too much tv? :D

No kidding! The other question I have: exactly where did she expect to change her tampon on that boat?

All commercials for male enhancement skeeve me out.

I forgot those! Definitely them! Especially the ones with "Bob", I don't remember the product but the music the play in the background is used in other commercials too, so it makes me think of that creepy commercial even more!

lifesaver 10-18-2004 02:30 AM

Bump.

Cause as I have mentioned before, the Burger king commercial creeps me out. The voiceover guy and that wierd music and that big ass plastic head with the simile on it. "Egg and Meat and cheese, and meat and cheese. Oh yeah, Wake up with the King."

Creepy.

Yeah, that frightens me. I agree with that the tampon commercial is dumb. Also, I'm frightened by the Six Flags guy. It's horrible.

mmcat 10-18-2004 07:50 AM

ditto to all above.
could you imagine waking up with Burger King?
and bob the viagra guy is creepy.

I totally agree...my stomach turns every time I see this stupid commercial...ewwwwwwww!

valkyrie 10-18-2004 11:09 AM

There's a commercial with animated foot fungus running around acting all scary. Um, sick.

James 10-18-2004 11:27 AM

For the men that have erections for longer than four hours . . . they pack it in ice in the emergency room to see if it will go down.

If that fails, they cut the penis at its base and led it bleed until it goes flaccid.

20 percent of men have some dysfunction after that.

The Herbal Essence shampoo commercial where the lady is having a Big "O" in the shower while she's using the product.

Hey, I like orgasms as much as the next gal but that's just gross!

lifesaver 10-18-2004 03:10 PM

Bob the viagra guy is sketchy. That look on his face when the viagra horns come out is a bit creepy.

Every time I see the plastic king's head, I'm reminded of "Buddy Jesus" from Dogma (since our youth pastor used a clip from Dogma about Buddy Jesus as part of his lesson a few weeks ago)....just make it GO AWAY!!!! :p

Do you even know how long it took before I made the organic/orgasmic connection?

Hint: I was in college.

Cosign, cosign!! I was in a hotel that had Herbal Essence shampoo etc in the room, and I just could not use it!!


And the foot fungus one wants me to cut off my toes - eeeewwww!!!!

I find herpes commercials odd. I'm glad to know that if I get herpes I can still frolick on the beach.

LMAO!!! Yea, that cracks me up. I think if I had just gotten herpes - I wouldn't be running around on the beach with my new lover.

CutiePie2000 10-19-2004 03:11 AM

There was one ad for a gum (I think it was Dentyne Extreme Ice Mint or something) where this guy open the top of his head like a lid, and there were all these barking seals on blocks of ice, like the minty ice sensation was just so icy or something. Gross.

Whenever I saw that ad (I don't think it's on anymore), it made me think of Ray Liotta's exposed brain at the end scene of "HANNIBAL". Eeeeewwwwww

There's a commerical here that claim that 20% of the population has genital herpes. Like.... ew! Just more reasons never ever to have casual sex!

syrinx 10-19-2004 01:56 PM

The commercial for that medicine that helps gastric bloat with the writing all over the women's stomachs....

The jeans commercial they aired a few years ago for low riders with the bellybuttons singing "Im coming out" :mad:

I'm sorry if this one has already been mentioned, b/c I didn't read the whole thread: I can't stand the toilet paper commercials that show animated bears crapping behind a tree and wiping their rears with Charmin. I don't want to see anyone poop on t.v.; not even cartoon bears!
