Commercials We Hate

Cerpin Taxt · 03-12-2011, 10:55 AM

(If you still watch TV)

YouTube - Febreeze Commercial 7 Odors Song

Makes my eye twitch in rage every time

YouTube - Cadbury Eyebrows (official version)

I'm glad they stopped showing this one

Ego Tripping · 03-12-2011, 11:02 AM

Thanks for reminding me (again) why I killed my TV long ago.

YouTube - Forgetter

there is just no need for some commercials.

I hate any commercial that sells you something that doesn't actually exist. Like TD Ameritrade says they have "more than just a few ETFs" so they're better. The thing is, anyone with access to the NYSE or AMEX has access to the same number of ETFs: ALL OF THEM. It's the same no matter what broker you go with.

YouTube - Life Call Commercial "I've fallen and I can't get up!"

Cerpin Taxt · 03-12-2011, 01:30 PM

^Hahaha really? I find that one pretty funny

~1~ · 03-12-2011, 02:42 PM

Yeah, maybe the first 10,000 times, after that it can grate a little.

Any commercial for teeth whitening or acne wash where the main character in the commercial has a vivdly white smile and or pre-pubescent skin really turns on my "hate" button.

and i don't like to hate things.

Cerpin Taxt · 03-13-2011, 12:45 AM

"Acne is just so blah, and gross, and not cute"

-Random Proactive commercial I saw today

Thought you'd like that turm

turmaline · 03-13-2011, 12:50 AM

Did you ever see the Justin Bieber proactiv commercial? I lol'd my ass off, I think they took it off the air though, because I've only seen it once.

Cerpin Taxt · 03-13-2011, 08:31 AM

Haha, I believe it was Avril!

I'll bet the Bieber commercial was taken off because the believability of oil build up on a synthetic skin structure is too low.

turmaline · 03-13-2011, 03:54 PM

the "Motivator" is also another one I am not down with.
