There's an anti-drug commercial in which a puppy asks a teen to stop smoking pot that infuriates me.

Dog: Hey Lindsay
Lindsay: .....
Dog: I don't like it when you smoke pot - you're totally different. I want my friend back...
Lindsay: .....([censored] am I high right now?!?)

This makes me sad. Poor dog.

My eyes tingle when I use this battery acid to lubricate my contacts... that's how I know it works!

Skittles Sour commercial where the guy is getting milked. It's disguisting, and tilts me when I watch it.

The cell phone commercials where the parent and the kids argue with eachother, but say the opposite of what they would "normally" say to each other. [censored] off Verizon/cingular/t-mobile. Not all kids talk to their parents like [censored], cause if they did they'd get smacked up side the head.

The commercial where everyone starts yawning. If I had more than one TV in my house I'd throw my shoe through the screen every god damn time it comes on.

Any anti-smoking/anti-drug commercial. It doesn't work [censored]. Now they all suck, go back to the 80's when they were at least entertaining.

I have a fundamental dislike of any commercial that hinges on the permise that the avg consumer is too dumb to do (insert really simple task here).

So yeah, I'm pretty much never buying one of those egg cookers/knife sets/etc they sell on TV.

The only commercials that ever make me buy stuff are the ones with food. (fact: the JITB breakfast steak burrito thing is asstasstic)

The first one they made with the mother and daughter was not horrible, but the new one with the father and son is blood-boiling.

Yeah, this [censored] commercial makes me and my wife yawn like crazy every time it comes on. We literally turn off the TV for thirty seconds as soon as we see it come on - but it's always too late and we start yawning anyway. Just typing the word yawn is making me yawn right now. And I'll bet reading it is making you yawn.

The key that really proves that these commercials suck is that I have no idea which phone company the first one is for and I don't even know what the second one is advertising. That's not good. You want a cheap commercial that gets your brand name stuck in my head, watch the buy.com commercial with the song (or even the one with the founder sitting on the building). They're not that interesting, but I remember who it's for and I don't hate them for it.
