Are you insured by Survival?

2 Commercials bug my in particular:
The McDonald's commercials where they go: "Badabadaba, I'm lovin' it!"
The cellphone commercial where this guy says "Can you hear me now? Good." over and over again.

All the new mcdonalds commercials suck because of this new slogan. Maddox wrote a totally good article about it here:
http://maddox.xmission.com/c.cgi?u=lovin_itWARNING: Extreme language is used. This website is blocked for supposedly being extremest and militant by some web filters. Crude language and all sorts of other goodies are there, so if you're under, oh, say, 18, don't go. Or if you're offended by the littlest things in the world.

The ad for Cox cable company, the commerical itself isn't all that annoying, but every time that commercial is run it's run 3 times back to back. THAT IS ANNOYING. If I thought your offer sucked the first time, you can bet I think it sucks after the 3rd time too.

The MOST annoying to me is the cell phone commercial (don't remember which company, but the girl is braiding everyone's hear and talking a million miles a minute.
The one I can't stand is the car insurance ads all of them for progressive or what ever insurance company it is where some guy is always going " Good news and then some one else says ____ and then the guy goes I just saved money on my car insurance."
That just drives me nuts

I actually have a couple:
The recent Microsoft commercials (guy sliding across the floor on his knees bc he has Microsoft server or some such nonsense)
The KFC commercial about the *champion* of buffalo wings...bleh....gluttony...I almost get physically ill when I see that commercial
The cigarette truth commercials, particularly regarding low birth weight; I mean, what woman wouldn't want a low birth weight baby? Honestly....
On a personal note: I don't condone smoking when pregnant for that purpose, but I know a few women who would start smoking
because of that fact

i can't stand the truth commercials. they make it seem like smoking is a crime. it's my choice. i know the risks, yet i like it. i'll quit one day, but not any time soon. we all have to die somehow, and it's not a certainty that by smoking i will get lung cancer and die. i could be hit by a bus tommorow for all i know. my grandpa smoked till he was in his 50's he lived to be in his 80's. smoking didn't slow him down a bit.
the anti-drug commercials also drive me crazy. they are targetted to teenagers, and as a teenager i can say they are a joke. everyone at school laughs at them, both stoners and clean people alike. the commercial that we all find to be amusingly stupid and pointless is the one where the little kid is playing by the pool. then the voiceover says to just tell her parents you were getting high. first off, no one i know would ever accept a babysitting job and get high. i know all the stoners. i hang out with them sometimes. i have friends who have been arrested and jailed and they wouldn't do that. teens are aware of responsability when it comes to a child. secondly would any of you parents ever leave your children with a person who you suspected would do drugs? if a person was that large of a stoner, they would probably show up stoned and you would be able to tell. i've babysat a lot, and before people leave me with their kids they want recomendations, and other things that will make them trust you. the bottom line is those commercials suck and probably don't do anything.

The one with the kid playing by the pool should have a voiceover that says, "just tell her parents you weren't watching her because you are a DUMBASS!" A dumbass is a dumbass whether stoned or not. I really like the one of the kid on the bicycle that gets hit by the stoners at the drive thru. What parent in his or her right mind would allow a child of that age to ride a bicycle on a busy street? These commercials are nothing but government propaganda. I have seen TV networks immediately follow an anti-pot commercial with an alcohol commercial. Alcohol kills something like 350,000 people in this country every year (don't feel like looking up the exact number right now). Marijuana has never been proven to have killed even ONE person.

All the McDonalds commercials are awful, but particularly the one where the guy is eating a "McGriddle" and everybody comes up to look at it and take pictures of it like it's a vision of the Madonna.
Also, I can't stand that guy who announces what's going to happen on the NBC shows: "On an all-new Friends!!" It's not the copy, it's the guy's voice. I'd like to sentence him to be in a McDonalds commercial.

I'm sorry, but the dorky old man in the e-harmony.com commercials bugs the living hi out of me. he just sounds like such a retard. UGH!! I'm not really offended by it, but everytime I hear it I just visualize him hitting himself in the head and chest and saying "I'm special".

I love those commercials!!! They're great!!!
Now come on, you really expect hamsters to have good singing voices???
They are on all the time during Adult Swim.
I have to agree to the anti drug commercials. Any anti-drug stuff is hi, because it doesn't change anything, if I'm gonna shoot up I'm gonna shoot up.
The horrible thing about the swimming one is that it is so absolutely wrong, he announces that it's a medley relay, yet they are starting off the blocks??? Sorry buddy, but I'm a swimmer, and medley relays start in the water... backstroke - breaststroke - butterfly - freestyle and if the person wasn't there why would the other 3 be up at the block anyway, unless the person was getting high at the meet in the locker room or something....
