OMG, these make me crazy, too. Other "poop" related commercials I hate:

- The Clorox bleach commercials, especially the one where two dads are talking in the park and the 4-year old kid sh_ts himself. I don't care how young the kids are, it's gross.

- The Luvs diaper commercial with the kids bearing down to fill their diapers.

And more that drive me crazy...

- The Geico pig - just grates on my nerves.

- The Progressive lady - enough already, she's annoying.

- Kay Jewelers "open heart jewelry" - they are so ugly!!

- JG Wentworth - "It's my money and I want it now" - ALL of the commercials, especially the one with the opera singers

- Disney commercial with the grandfather interrupting the kid's play by singing a song from the "Lion King" - not funny.

- Eharmony commercial with the "granddaughter" with the fake speech impediment. If she really had it, she should/would have pronounced the "r" in the word "teacher" incorrectly as well. She's really annoying.

- The Lumosity. com commercial with the woman with short hair - she just bugs the hell out of me.

- The "Cotton" commercial with actress Hayden Panettiere - she comes across like a poseur trying to be "country".

I read somewhere that's she's the highest paid commercial "star" on television.

- JG Wentworth - "It's my money and I want it now" - ALL of the commercials, especially the one with the opera singers

Now I have that song in my head... "Call JG Wentworth.. 877 cash now!" Ugh, so dumb.

It really makes me sad that there are people who actually make a decent living coming up with these horrible ideas...

I think the Geico pig is CREEPY!!!! And irritating to boot.

I want to slap the eHarmony kid back to last week - as well as the founder guy who is in it with her for thinking that ridiculously dumb commercial is a good sell for the company.

I find her not only annoying but lacking in acting skills.

I second this. Any of those look-at-these-crying-children/animals commercials just upset me more than anything. As someone else said, I do my social work; I don't need depressing blackmail.

WHAT. Thank goodness those are gone.

ALL GEICO commercials are AWFUL. Who the hell is approving them?
Also, the King got really, really creepy for a bit, but I'm okay with him now. I think they've toned him back.

Only part of the country will get this, but I despise FOOORRRRMAAAAAAN MIIIIILLLLSSSS commericals.

Also, H&R Block's "get you billion back America" commercials because they're on the radio every 5 seconds.

Finally, this isn't a commercial, but it is an advertisement: I am soooo tired of seeing Joumana Kayrouz's face on everything. I swear at this point show owns every bus (inside and out) and billboard in Metro Detroit.

I actually have no issue shopping at Forman Mills -- I got a really cute leather coat there last month -- but I HAAAAAATE their commercials.

My sister and I -- both native Washingtonians -- giggle about how the Forman Mills commercials remind us of "AT! ALL! 6! MORTON'S!!!!!!"
