Most Anoying Commercials!
 
1. Jack N' The Box Philly Steak
2. Carls Jr. (Who had the bright Idea to zoom in on someones mouth when they are eating and smacking their lips) :yack:
3. "The Truth" anti smoking commercials
4. "More Harmless Than We Thought" pot commercials!
5. "Can Ya Hear Me now?"

Anymore? :D

The Truth and marijuana commercials are indeed irritating but the most annoying commercial that is currently airing in my neck of the woods is that ARGH:

"I can do anything better than...." Tide with bleach vs. Oxyknockoff detergent commercial.

My ears bleed every time I hear it.

Da Thrilla 02-22-03 04:27 PM

ALL commercials are annoying.

Applejack 02-22-03 04:29 PM

The dell commercials, whether Steve is in them or not, are the most annoying commercials ever

Everytime I hear this commercial I swear it is Hank Hill from King of The Hill, singing! :D

If he was still doing his thing like the original commercials, I bet “Kin you hear me now?” would be number 1 with a bullet.

And nobody mentions Carrot Top???

Robert 02-22-03 05:21 PM

Celine Dion singing in a car.

:yack:

Those Bass ale commercials. I keep wishing when ever the one with the guy talking about his get out of Nebraska shirt comes on someone will appear in the background with a baseball bat and crack him over the skull with it.

MJKTool 02-22-03 05:36 PM

How about those Rick Fox Ford commercials! I love the Lakers but ughhh I hate seeing that ugly smile of his! :lol:

Deftones 02-22-03 05:49 PM

god bless my tivo. i haven't watched a commercial on purpose in over 2 years. :lol:

Here in Lafayette IN, there are 2 local sets that drive me crazy! Bob Rhorman cars. He's the local car dealer, and because his last name is pronounced roar-man, he thinks it's funny to say it "Bob Roooooaaaaarrrman" and have a lion as his logo. VERY irritating. The other ones (which admittedly, I haven't seen one in a while) are CD Land commercials. I can't even describe the awfulness.

agreed! i hate the intern ones even more than steve!!!!

also, the one that really irritates me is one that's selling DSL. i cant remeber the company but it's the one with the new parents and the dad is sitting on the bed with his laptop and he says he's going to buy the tricycle for their infant daughter because "it's da bomb"!!!!! oh, god, i REALLY hate that commercial!!!!!

The Celine Dion Chrysler and Randy Newman Ford commericals are the absolute worse. It's bad enough that I may just never ever buy a Chrysler or Ford automobile, just to spite them.

Norm de Plume 02-22-03 06:32 PM

I don't pay any attention to commercials, but some are just so irritating that one can't help it.

I'll go with the old stand-by, the "Zoom Zoom" kid. Man, I'd like to give him the beats.

Progressive Insurance probably has the most unbearable music of any commercial.

takamine 02-22-03 09:04 PM

catherine zeta-jones!! so annoying i can't remember which cell phone she's pushing.

Aaron Amos 02-22-03 10:07 PM

Additionally, he's quite a scary-looking man.

The only truth commercial ad I like is the Project S.C.U.M. one because I just think that's hilarious if a cigarette company actually came up with a marketing campaign like that.

BizRodian 02-23-03 01:40 AM

Dudes... you HAVE to encode this roarman commercials in for us to watch.

There's a hilarious local one in Spokane for the "carpet barn" which consists of two women running around moving carpet, doing standard slapstick fare. In one part, a forklift runs over the foot of one of the women. However, it's of course fake. It's a close up of an empty shoe getting run over. The shoe is obviously empty because it bounces when it gets run over.

Have you seen those ones with the guy who wants to teach you how to have the goverment give you money? He wears this question mark covered suit.

Quiznos commercials. Good God, they are annoying and stupid on tv and radio. I'd like to challenge Quizno's to take their crappy commercials off the air.

Subway w/ Jared commercials suck, too. So he lost all that weight eating subs.. his 15 mins of fame are up.

I do enjoy the TCM commercial with the old folks home and the Rocky play. I rotfl all the time watching that one.

BizRodian 02-23-03 07:01 AM

Actually, for a while it looked like Jared gained all the weight back. They were only showing him from the head up, and his commercials were toned way down. But now he seems back in full force again.
