God, the Progressive, Geico, AllState commercials really get under my skin - to the point that I refuse to purchase their products! Flo, the damn Geico pig and the dumb ass AllState commercials go beyond insulting...

I sustain from purchasing items from those commercials that contain nudity, pornografy and sexual content.

"I have a structured settlement and I need cash now, call J G Wentworth. 877 cash noooooooow. 877 cash nooooow." It should be obvious why this commercial bothers me...ear worm total ear worm.

I can't stand Flo with Progressive. I like the pig in the Geico, but can't stand the gecko. I hate any commercial that has the "trendy" whiny woman strumming the guitar and singing, like the Subaru commercials with the guy that loses his sunglasses, then him and his equally stupid wife drive all over looking for them.

Those are the products I'm inclined to buy. If I could eat at Hooters or the Tilted Kilt every day, I would.

I'm pretty sure everyone reading from the UK will agree with me when I say the most annoying advert on tv is, by far and away,.. those damned Go compare adverts.

My god, it's enough to drive a man insane.

I simply cannot stand those low fat yogurt commercials and this one commercial where some chick is singing about butter and she goes "Turrrn the tub around..." I cannot stand her face her voice or her dancing... I would so fly an airplane into her house.

That's a fantasy wife right there. Who has a wife who would put up with that OCD nonsense? No offense to you who have OCD...

I can't stand singing in commercials, not the true records but the actors singing.

Really gets on my nerves.

Come on, you gotta like R. Lee Ermey and his commercial.

If not, take yourself to mamby-pamby land and get yourself a tissue, crybaby.


Could not resist

No kidding! Flo's hot! She even rides a motorcycle. C'mon guys, be honest. Don't claim you wouldn't do her.

There are two as of late, one for 21st Insurance. At the end of the commercial they sing a song where the lyrics go "digga digga digga digga digga digga digga digga twenty first". And they always play it twice in a row. Like really?! the best words you can think of is to repeat "digga digga" over and over? BAH I have to mute the TV every time I hear that commercial begin. The very fact that I know the company that runs the commercial means that the commercial is working though.


The second commercial that I really cant stand is one for HR Block or some other such tax service. They interview a few people about their tax refund, and there is this one overweight black woman towards the end that says "I will want my money back from the government, I will want it back" and she sounds like she is sobbing or chuckling. She speaks slowly, there is just something about the way she says it "I will want my money back from the government, I will want it back."

Lastly I guess is pretty much every ITT Tech commercial. The people they interview usually sound half retarded. One guy in particular says something along the lines of "ITT Tech has uh... given me a.... better chance at life... uh, my life."

All those commercials for fiber type bars, that imply that fiber tastes like cardboard.
It doesn't!! Well, some does, but just eat the tasty stuff.
Fiber tastes like an apple, or a carrot, or nuts, seeds, or many similar healthy treats....


Also the V8 commercials, that tell us how awful vegies taste, unless they're in a drink.
They're a bad influence on picky eaters

Vegies are tasty, the V8 makers are giving them a very bad rap!
