Commercials you hate

The BK breakfast bowl commercials really make an effort at that hip/wierd/funny thing, but it really is a swing and a miss. They are terrible.

Another commercial I love to hate are the personal injury lawyers who use the "stock" lawyer commercial. Let me explain. If you go from one metropolitan area to another, you see the SAME commercial where the big greedy corporation is talking about how they're going to screw the poor guy suing them in court, then their intern or somebody says, "They hired the law firm of _____ and _____" Then everybody gets all quiet like they've seen a ghost and they say, "Let's settle this one." The only thing is that different law firms use that same commercial in every city.

The McDonalds one where the guy doesn't want to talk to anyone until he gets his coffee.

This one really pisses me off too. Especially the ****ing cashier at the end. I've never seen anyone so mother ****ing happy to be dealing with an ******* of a customer that early in the morning at MCDONALDS. **** that commercial.

I hate the Cialis commercials...WHT is up with the separate bathtubs at the end of those? seriously!!

Wouldn't you want to be in the SAME tub? lmao ughhhhh so dumb

If they got in the same bathtub together then he wouldn't need the Cialis.

I also hate

The viagra commerial where the man pulls into the gas station with the over heated Camero. In fact I hate all commerials that have do with any of that crap. I sick of hearing about diarrhea, constipation, erectile dysfuntion, viginal itch, & any other ad that makes the middle part of the body seem like it's from hell. I also hate that stupid Lexus (Toyota) commerial with their crappy car playing the drums. I hate all the pharmacutical ads. I hate the Hyundai commerials with car that looks like a Mercedes with all the badges removed & replaced with Hyundai ones. I hate the Ax commerials with ugly dude hooking up with the hot chick because he uses Ax. I hate all credit card commerials because I know they are nothing but lying scum. I wish the Geico caveman would punch someone in the face. I wish the Geico geeko would turn rabid & attack Flo (Progressive). Come to thank of it I probably hate 99.9% of all the tv ads I see & usually wonder to myself "why would I buy a product or service from a company run by idiots"

I hate the commercial with the young woman and old man Cowboy fans. Their dog runs into the house of their (undoubtedly pleasant, intelligent, thoughtful) neighbor and desecrates his Skins gear. Then at the end of the commercial they show 1.5 seconds of random Skins highlights to try not to completely alienate us.

The similar commercials with other teams are ok, I just don't like that one.

Wow! That's A $!!% Ad! Staples Commercial Voted Worst Ad In America For 2010

It seems like ages ago that we first asked you to tell us which commercials were getting under your skin. And you responded by the thousands! We "took it seriously" and painstakingly whittled your suggestions down to the final nominees for our first ever Worst Ad In America Awards. And now, with more than 100 000 votes counted in our completely unscientific poll, we have a clear winner (or is it loser?) -- Staples' "Wow! That's a Low Price!" commercial.

With just over 30% of the vote, the winning ad, featuring the loudest, most enthusiastic, downright spastic Staples shopper ever, edged out Quiznos' cavalcade of costumed, singing animals (28.6%). It goes to show that the mere presence of kittens will always sway some voters.

Two early front-runners, Honda's Mr. Opportunity and Progressive Insurance's Flo campaigns, finished a distant third (18.7%) and fourth (15.5%) respectively. Meanwhile, the least ostensibly offensive ad of the bunch, State Farm's chummy, raven-haired insurance buddy, brought up the rear with only 7.1% of the vote.

MOST GRATING PERFORMANCE BY A HUMAN

The actor behind McDonald's "not before I have my coffee" jerk might wish he'd slept in this morning, because he was the clear victor in this category (35%). His closest competition came in the form of another pitchman for a liquid pick-me-up, 5-Hour Energy's Mr. "Do you know what 2:30 feels like?" Well, we'd like to ask him "Do you know what it's like to annoy 28.5% of our voters?"

The surprise in this category came from Wendy's "pico de gallo" loud-mouth, who actually received the highest number of nominations in this category from the initial reader submissions. But with only 9.15% of the final vote, he was -- probably to the relief of both him and his agent -- at the back of the pack when it came time for people to vote.

MOST ANNOYING ANIMATED SPOKESTHING

This one came as a genuine surprise to us. The General (of the insurance company with the same name) came out of nowhere with 32.7% to beat the heavily favored Charmin Bears with their prickly, toilet paper-snagging butts (25.8%) along with Geico's squealing pig (25.2%). Michelin's bizarre commercial featuring animated road kill dancing in the streets came in last (6.8%), but we'd have to wonder how that spot would have fared if it had been placed in the Creepiest Commercial category.

DUO OR GROUP THAT MOST NEEDS TO BE BROKEN UP

The winner of this one -- JG Wentworth's busload of opera singers (24.63%) -- wasn't much of shocker, though we would not have predicted that it would be such a close race, or that the commercial coming in a very close second (the tightest finish of the entire competition) would be the Chase ad (23.35%) featuring the newlyweds who'd rather spend their time depositing checks on their iPhone than, you know, doing honeymoon stuff.

CELEBRITY WHO MUST HAVE LOST THE MOST MONEY IN THE HOUSING CRASH

This was a battle of two men -- Ben Stein and Jimmy Johnson -- who embarrassed themselves immensely by taking gigs as pitchmen for somewhat eyebrow-raising companies. In the end it was coach-turned-broadcaster-turned-Survivor-star Jimmy's 32% beating out Nixon-flunky-turned-professor-turned-actor-turned-game-show-host-turned-ex-New-York-Times-columnist Stein's 29%.

In the end, it looks like readers just didn't want to imagine helmet-haired Johnson taking pills to enhance his... jimmy.

CREEPIEST COMMERCIAL

Speaking of imagery just ruining it for everyone, that's the best way to explain the runaway victory of Liberator Medical's catheter commercial. Not only is the word "catheter" enough to make many people cross their legs awkwardly, the ad's opening line of "I had to reuse catheters for the rest of my life" sent chills down the spines (and up the urethras) of 46.37% of the voters. Liberator's 20% defeat of second-place Old Navy was by far the largest margin of victory in all of WAIA 2010.

See' date=' I want to have sex with her.

To each his own, I guess.

(I also want to have sex with Edna Esurance. And she's a cartoon. So, I may have issues).[/quote']

Yeah, I'd see a neurologist. That Flo chick is very unattractive to me. She has a pigeon walk, her teeth are a little on the yellow side ( maybe it's my TV ?) and she's about an extra jar of makeup away from looking like an extra in a kabuki play, I'll pass. As for the cartoon Esurance chick, well... I'll just leave that one alone

1. "At Eastern Motors...your job's your credit"

You can't be serious. Eastern Motors commercials are the greatest.

(I also want to have sex with Edna Esurance. And she's a cartoon. So' date=' I may have issues).[/quote']

If you have issues, then I have issues. The E-surance chick is bangin'.

I just have to pronounce in this thread about the best commercial of all time. The directv russian billionaire commercial. 'I also like savings the money'. Mini giraffe FTW!!!!!!

That commercial kicks so much ass, it's not even funny.

Some of the DirectTV commercials for the NFL deal are pretty cool. The one with the Pats fans are my favorite.

Troy Barkman is the one dog, though, I'd like to see put to sleep.
