not sure they do it anymore, but the one where people are dropping orange sheets all over buildings and running down the beach with it. not what their doing, but the music thats playing while its happening. that commercial, and all others that sound like it.

I just really really hate soft quiet singing, especially when its a guy.

There's a radio commercial I always hear during Succos games....

"Daaaaddyyyyy--why are you always turning the lights off?"

BUT WHY?

Agreed, mostly cause my roommate has to remind me he is going to be a hamster for Halloween.

I got rid of my cable, so I don't have to deal with ads anymore. Somewhat of a positive trade off.

Meaning there are ad campaigns on youtube that infuriate me.

All ads that pop up when I want to watch a video make me want to kill.

Agreed.

I lol'd when a commercial came up that contained the song I was looking for.

Just quoting this to show how much I don't miss these commercials, but I'm guessing I'll be seeing them again in another month or so.

I can't find the exact link to it now, but the FreeCreditReport.com commercials scare me. I teach a section of our college's first year experience class. All of the sections, some 200 freshmen, met for a group lecture on student finances, credit cards, paying off student loans, etc. As part of the lecture, one of the FreeCreditReport.com commercials was played...and like zombies, all 200+ students sung right along with the video clip.

I was stunned. :shock:

At least the super **** annoying tenitis (sp?) commercials where they simulate the ear ringing have stopped.

Can you hear that? Can you hear it? It's so annoying. RAGE.

The Miller Lite "unmanly" campaign. There is nothing manly about drinking Miller Lite.
