desioreo87 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 They have got to be the stupidest commercials in the history of television. I mean honestly, the scene where the girl checks her email and the computer crashes because apparantely her email wasn't working, i mean wtf :doh:. Any of you guys have seen this nonsense, or have you seen worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinFeathers Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Oh my God. Every time my roommate sees them she gets so pissed. They bother her that much. I don't really notice them that much cause my face is usually in here during commercials. That McDonalds fish commercial gets stuck in my head a lot though...songs with popular jingles too.

Chopper Dave Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Well I was shopping for a new car which one's me? A cool convertible or an SUV, too bad I didn't know my credit was whack, cause now I'm driving off the lot in a used subcompact. F-R-E-E that spells free, credit report dot com baby, saw their ads on my TV, thought about going but was too lazy. Now instead of rolling fly and looking phat, my legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse's getting laughed at. F-R-E-E that spells free credit report dot com baby. The sad thing is, I typed that off the top of my head. Commercials are mindblowing these days. Vince from Shamwow and Slapchop has taken over my brain. I can recite both commercials by heart with semi-accurate accent and gestures. I know the lyrics to all of the Free Credit Report.com commercials to the point where singing along to them when they come on is an involuntary reflex. I feel like the people in the ad industry over the past year or so have decoded the human brain and have refined admaking to the point that they can tunnel into your brain's memory centers and place knowledge of their products directly in there. It's ****ing ridiculous. I regularly hum credit report commercial jingles about pirate themed restaurants. That's not healthy. I need DVR. And seriously, what kind of bike shop checks the credit of someone paying cash for a ****ty bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's cringe-worthy. The fake email screen and error message, etc. and then the geek that looks up and says, "Finally fast.com!" :doh: :twitch: Check this out...lol http://www.themediawiz.net/rants/finallyfastcom-worst-commercial-award.html but it's a MAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praise_gibbs Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hahah. I just finished reading this thread and then the damned Finally Fast commercial played followed by a Free Credit Report commercial. I kid you not. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedlightG20 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 yeah the MAC/PC thing bothers me. I don't understand how none of those idiots caught that when making that commercial, or perhaps they think we're idiots and wanted to mess with us. I'll go with the prior.

The 12th Commandment Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 The idiots that would buy that worthless **** don't know the difference between a Mac and a PC. I betcha there's a bunch of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 And seriously, what kind of bike shop checks the credit of someone paying cash for a ****ty bike? Actually, the one that always ticks me off is "I married my dream girl, but she didn't tell me her credit was bad". "Gee, I should have gone to this web site and run a credit check on somebody else's identity before I proposed to her." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Actually, the thing that really ticks me about the finallyfast commercials is that I'd be willing to bet you $100, right now, that this product, which claims to eliminate spyware and adware, and speed up your computer and your internet connection, actually is spyware and adware, and will slow down your computer and your internet connection. Based on nothing more than their claims and their marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick86L Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 yeah this commercial has to be from the 90's and they just never upgraded it. I always laugh when he says "What's that URL I need to go to?". Who the **** still calls a website address a URL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HogNose Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I don't have time for finallyfast, I'm too busy plugging in my Riddex Plus. :doh: Anyone seen this one? lol https://www.riddexplus.com/flare/next?videoID=ai401&bufferTime=5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Pissed Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I hate this Flirty Girl Fitness Commercial with a passion. It's after the Geico one in this link so start at 0:32 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFkaO28u0k4 The song in the background annoys me!! And the dance moves at marks 0:48 (dance move reminds me of a chicken dancing), 0:52 (the blonds posture is so stiff and she is lame), 1:55-1:57 (who dances like that??)

Larry Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 FreeCreditReport.com: http://www.cancelcictripleadvantage.com/ Now, I do have to observe that every one of their TV commercials I've seen specifically states "Offer comes with enrollment in Triple Advantage". I'll also observe that at least some of their songs reference "features" of Triple Advantage (as opposed to credit reports". Things like "They monitor your credit and send you email alerts". So, while I don't doubt that they're in business to make piles of money, I will observe that they do at least make a few token motions in the direction of honesty.
