I have to say the snickers commercials need to die. I'm so sick of hearing about happy peanuts, mountain tops of Chocolate and waterfalls of caramel.

Cilit Bang.
"HELLO I'M BARRY SCOTT AND THIS IS NEW CILIT BANG!!!!!!"
Who is Barry Scott? Who cares?

Also Confused.com which is 30 seconds of some under payed actor shouting at you to visit a website.

most commercials are annoying. They are designed so that you're aware of some product and how you can't live with out it.

Anyway, the whole point of Barry Scott is how rediculous he is, he's a cult figure now.

I hate all the B'n'Q adverts, and Bill Odies smug little voice.

On [adult swim] there are commercials for Pee Wee's Playhouse, and I'm sick of hearing that balloon and giggle. I swear they play that like 20 times a night.

That beer ad with the 'don't you wish your girlfriend...' song. It's unbelievably obnoxious. And I can't even remember what beer it's for... Rolling Rock or Heineken, or some other low-grade bullshit that's barely a step above PBR.

On Cartoon Network, they don't have them so much, but I am stuck watching Sprout with my little sister all day sometimes. I'm a big kid now! Stupid baby commercial voice!

Not many.

Those lame 'text this numeber and get a free wallpaper/ringtone'.

But the joke texts are even worse. "Hey! Pay us a dollar a day so we can put your cell phone on a mailing list for jokes you can easily find for free on the internet."

But they're on so often, they must have developed some kind of revenue. What kind of people would actually buy that crap?

ahahahah that's so true.

I also hate the freakin text to chat and find a hot sexy single in your area commercial.

I have to say though I actually saw a Boys Gone Wild commercial. I was like wtf..... blink.gif

Oh yeah, I was going to mention the GGW, but those kind of make me laugh. Desperation and industrial voyeurism are funny.

Then again, I wouldn't want to have to see them more than once.

I've never seen a boys-gone-wild ad. blink.gif

It reminds me of the imaginary shows we used to make at the Elwood Mansion. Bishonen Gone Wild and E.K.A.G... we were so cute and innocent... happy.gif

What I wonder about BGW is if it's actually softcore gay porn the way GGW is [lesbian porn].

Bah I hate those GGW commercials because they take away from having a good infomercial on tv!
Any nocturnal / insomniac person will tell you that infomercials late at night (3am-5am) are addictive...Once you start watching it's so calming and tranquil (just be sure not to buy anything biggrin.gif) The GGW infomercials are loud flashy and overall obnoxious!.....

i'd rather watch the magic bullet infomercial or that appliance for baking bread! (or that one for chocalate fondue! >_>)
Zarpia
Ah! I want to see the BGW commercials XD

I barely watch t.v this days. So I'll ask my brother.

Me: Hey pinhead, what commercials bother you?
Brother: >>....car commercials, they are stupid, and the layers ones too.

I was about to say those Tanqueray ads with the 'Tony Sinclair' character, but I actually have a sort of fascination with them.

This guy raises a kind of morbid curiosity in me. Neither I nor anyone I've asked has any idea who he is, so he's obviously not a celebrity spokesman. He certainly isn't particularly telegenic. And his whole character comes off as really gaudy and obnoxious. Yet he punctuates every ad with an emphatic "I'm Tony Sinclair", like it's supposed to mean anything, and we're gonna drink Tanqueray just because he's there telling us to do it.

This is easily one of the strangest ad campaigns in history.
Popogeejo

That's pretty f*cked up. They managed to quietly create the strangest ad campaign in history.

I'm glad I'm not the only one fascinated and disturbed by this guy.

At least your fascination and disturbance weren't that much like to actually make a website about him.

want to buy some Tanqueray

I hate those commercials too.That is one of the few shows on AS that I won't watch.

I also hate commercials that say things like "Drink our soda, and win a prize.No purchess neccessary."I mean unless you shopplift you have to buy something in order to win.It's usually a scam.
