Why, why, why do they have Bone Thugs "Crossroads" on there?? That is not a song that you put on to get in the mood.

*Hijack mode ON*

For some reason, I have seen white folx slow dance romantically to Bone TnH's "Crossroads".

No lie. I was at a New Year's dinner and dance ($50 a pop, mainstream, i.e. Caucasion crowd), and they were playing a lot of R&B songs, and when "Crossroads" played, everyone got into the slow dance "lovey-dovey" mode. I was like, What the freak?

But anyways, Gina, while I agree with you wholeheartedly, that was something I never understood.

Ohhhhhh the imagery! LMCCAO

I am also sick of those "Midnight Love" compilation discs.
(("Nawwww, my brotha. You got tah get yo' own."))
Can the people not look like extras from "Shaft Goes to Africa?"

Just saw a new AOL commercial that's stupid. The lady comes into the board room carrying her baby, then proceeds to hand off the baby and get up on the table and walk all around saying what she wants on AOL.
Lame, lame, lame.

Yeah the Emerald Nuts commercials are stupid.

I also dislike the one where the girls are sharing a room and one of them draws a line down the middle of the carpet. The other one uses some stain remover and adjusts the line so that she had more room. The pose where she puts the cleaner in the other chicks face is just STUPID!

M&M M'Azing Candy Bars...

Have you SEEN the commercial with the little girl who lays her torso on the ground (tummy down) and takes her legs all the way around her body??????????

It's reminiscent of the new release of the Exorcist when Regan/Ragan when she comes down the stairs backwards turned over on her hands and feet. TOOOOOO CREEPY!

I meant to post this earlier when I remembered the name of the drug they were selling but it's the one for the medication to cure toe nail color..I want to say Lamisil but I don't know if I made that up or not..

They have that disgusting looking creature who flips up your toe nail (which makes me cringe thinking of the pain that person is acutally going through) and then he jumps in..oh how disgusting and painful if that's really what happened..

i hate that one commercial when that lady goes to the outlet and yanks it out of the wall. it makes no sense at all! i hate it.

I have three....

The one that I absolutely hate with a passion is the Honey Bunches of Oat where the lady sticks her head around the corner wearing what looks like a shower cap and hollers...say it with me yall..."Are u hungry?"...hate it, hate it, hate it

The other one is the oreo with the little girl and her grandmother licking the white stuff. Why do they have to lick the cookie like that

For my New Orleans folk, yall remember the commercial where the couple say that they got a cash advance so they could go on vacation and the man sings...."Who's the man that got me some cash"
....then they had the nerve to have a second one where the couple was on the beach

You know what commercial bothers me? This might be silly, but I always get a little irritated at the commercial with the young black male sitting at the kitchen table with his mother. He begins to tell her that he found a way to pay for school and something about him joining the army yadda yadda yadda. I guess the part that disturbs me the most is the mothers reaction to her son. She seems sooo uninterested, apprehensive and apathetic to what he had to say. It just makes it seem like black mommas are not excited about our children's future. I don't know maybe I read too far in into that commerical.

OMG, I hate that commercial so damn much.

[lovelyivy84]

I never noticed much about the oreo one except that grandma is random and a waitress.

What's wrong with how they are licking the oreo? I personally prefer to dunk them in peanut butter, but to each their own!

Has anyone seen the Tomato Emergency Room one? It's awful!!

[Missam05]

The Nature Sweet tomato commerical??

I'm scared to squeeze them now.."So how do I know if its ripe Mr. Tomato?"
