Re: Commercials you hate...
Oh it's just sad to think people have to do that, wash and reuse them...I'm sensitive to that...but just the word "catheter" gives me the heebie jeebies and in this ad she says it over and over....

Re: Commercials you hate...
There's 2 right now that absolutely make my blood boil - The current Vonage vs the Phone Company, especially the full 60 second one. It seems to be on constantly, especially on A&E and the Biography Channel. The other is the JG Wentworth one where all those morons are SCREAMING "Its my money and I need it now". If I actually had the need for a company like that, JG Wentworth would be the LAST place I would call.

Re: Commercials you hate...
To be honest, I do hate some commercials cuz they're cheesy, gross, etc...but for the most part, I don't mind commercials that much.
First, they give me a bit of an intermission to get a few things and not miss any of the program.
Secondly, it's how I usually first hear of a new product or service that I'm actually interested in.

There used to be a mustard commercial that drove me crazy. One limo pulls up beside another and the windows come down. One passenger asks the other passenger "Pardon me, but do you have any Grey Poupon?"

Have you ever experienced watching a commercial, where the sound of it is louder than other commercials? Errrrr... I hate that! That's why I push the mute button! What do these sponsors think, we are going to buy the product if they blast our ears off, or what?

Re: Commercials you hate...
There is a local car dealer commercial that I freakin' hate with a passion. It's shown every weekday, every 15 minutes during the 7-9 am local news time slot. The people that appear in the commercial definitely work for or are sons and daughters of the dealers ownership. One of the women in the commercial looks like a crack whore and one of the men looks like he's a bit light in the loafers.
I realize that it's a whole lot cheaper to produce a commercial with in house talent (employees) but please, I would not buy a car from that dealership because of that bad commercial!!

And just when ya think some of THE worst commercials come from insurance companies, car dealers and personal injury attorneys, along comes an election and we have to listen to all these assholes bashing each other.
What should be being aired should be AT these meat heads telling them to go out and pick up all of their political signs that have no effect on the outcome of the election in the first place! I mean, REALLY! GRRRRRR!
