there is a commercial that is advertsing some type of celluelar phone-can't remember which one, anyways

the guy is down on the street outside his girfreinds apartment and there are 2 girls standing next to him.

He yells up to her window saying"the doctor said it wasn't contagious"

and the 2 girls look at each other, one is on the cell phone (I think she is talking to the girlfriend in the building) and she says"OHHHHHHHH GIRRRRRRRL"

the lesson is to have a cell phone for those private moments/conversations

I crack up every time I see that commercial and OHHHH GIRRRRRL is a common expression now among my group of friends

I really like the GAP commercial going right now where the people sing "Give a little bit of your love to me"...just really neat. Great song too!

My fave is the M&Ms commercial when the parents are in the boy's room and they find posters of the Green M&M....and it's like they found porn or something...the American Beauty music plays in the background too. I love it!

Ok, it's dorky, but I really like the Old Navy commericals at Christmas. They annoy the hell outta me, but I can't help but hum the jingle..."old navy item of the week, item of the week, a new item every week..." (hahah...join in everyone!)

It's a Staples commercial with a robot. A customer is asking the robot about a scanner for a relative, the robot says he can't have the scanner to get him a cell phone (or some other device). The customer asks why not, robot says b/c I love her! The robot says "weeping, weeping" until they show it a power strip which the robot finds exciting!

One of my faves was on the air a couple of years back - it was an for Kokanee: their trademark Sashquatch crashes a wedding reception and goes for the bride - the groom freaks out and runs from the big foot - it was quite funny.

There's also this add for salmon (can't remember what it's called- but it's pretty famous) - were a guy and a bear are both going after the same fish and they get into a fight - it is so hilarious.

Ok so now for my fave ad that is currently airing: there 2 Molson Canadian ads right now: first one - there is a guy having a party at his house in the USA and he goes to the fridge to get more beer [Canadian] and sees that he is out - so he leaves the party and starts walking to the Canadian boarder (The Proclaimers 500 Miles is playing in the background); you see this guy walking across Canada - he gets his beer and brings it back to the American side; as soon as he crosses the boarder though he drops his 2-4 and all the bottles break so goes back into Canada to get another 2-4...

Ok the second one - there is a bus waiting to cross the boarder into the US - and the customs officer asks the bus driver if there is anything to declare and the driver replies just some Team Canada (hockey) tshirts and the customs dude pokes is head into the bus and all the Canadians start going crazy- - I assume they are suppossed to be heading to Salt Lake. Anyways it was advertising that all boxes of Molsen include a team canada tee

I also like the Mr. Yoshida commercial when he is sitting on top of the veggies dancing around with a big smile ,then the grocery store worker squirts him with water. [/B][/QUOTE]

That commercial is awesome!! But my all time favorite is the Bud Light one where the guy and his girlfriend are in the jewlery store looking at rings, and the salesperson is like, This one is 1/4 carat and this one is 1/2 carat. The guy looks out the window and sees a hot chick w/ a Bud Light waving to him, so he runs out the door-turns out they're filming a commercial and he just interrupted it. The next scene shows the same couple in the store, but this time the jewler is like, OK this is 8 carats and this is 10 carats....

I love it!!

I just saw this one tonight for the first time since last Christmas. It's a Staples commercial. It's the one where they have a robot as a sales associate. This guy is trying to by a fax machine for his brother. The robot is like, "No you can't have that." They fight back and forth for a while until the robot says, "You can't have her! I love her!" The people sales associates drag the robot away and then hold a circuit breaker up and say, "We found you another one." The robot purrs. It's so cheesy but I crack up every time I see it.

And the other Jetta one with the guy who is on his way yto stop the wedding a la "The Graduate" Love that one too!

Helps that the guy in that looks like the guy I am in love with AND that I drive that very model of Jetta-- the GLX.

Cool fair warning: this is kindof vulgar

Its bad, but i'll bleep out the naughty words. There is a commerical that runs in Europe, Mostly in the United Netherlands, and Northeastern Germany. It shows a family getting in a car, real cheesy like, all smiles. The dad turns on the radio and this little diddy comes on that goes "I want to f*** you in the @$$ I want to f*** in the @$$ I want to bend you over and f*** you in the @$$" and its all happy like teeny pop and they are bouncing there heads to it, and then the name of the company pops up, and says "do you need to learn how to speak english?" and its for language learning tapes. I almost died laughing when I saw that.
