It's catchy and has hot chicks in it. Just look @ the other things going on besides hootie (or the creepy plastic King mascot. That thing gives me the creeps). ;)

The American Express ad with Coach K is embarassing. Plus they show it every 5 minutes.

Yea, the memories...

Visa should make a rebuke from a Heels or Terps fan asking Coack K to remember that year when his team sucked so he ducked on the season because of his "back injury."

Oh man when i was on here and watchin tv last night I wanted to make this post...that crappy applebees nonsense with the retiring high school coach and the waitress asks if he can help her hang a picture (a picture of him). I am lucky if my waitress at applebees speaks correct english let alone worry about making me feel at home....wack...worst commercial not put out by Mcdonalds...McDonalds is an entirely different story...when Im watchin those commercials I feel like McDonalds doesnt think white people enjoy their food...except for that stupid moron who wants you to stay away from his chicken strips...wack once again..def not lovin it

I don't remember the product, but recently saw a commercial with a conservatively dressed decent looking milf talking about "pink in the sink". IE your blood mixed with toothpaste. Disturbing.

The Dodge truck commercial with the 2 guys who's car brakes down(An old Chrysler car, imagine that) and the guy pulls up in the Dodge truck with the Hemi engine, and only one of them can sit up in the truck with the guy driving, and he begins to have that ridiculious fantasy about being the best friend of the guy driving the truck

I can think of plenty more given enough time, so I might be back...........

I have been thinking the exact same thing about the Golden arses.

There are a lot of worthless commercials out there. It is really hard to pick the one I think is the worst.

I'd have to say that the New Nissan slogan about everything we shift ....crap....it is just stupid!!!!!!

Anyone of those Kids Bopz(?) commericals....


That BK commerical is annoying because
1. They show it too much
2. It has Cowboys cheerleaders in it
3. It makes no sense

There was a KFC commercial last year that was terrible...seemed a little racist to me also.

It had a black family in thier kitchen eating dinner. But they got super excitied when the chicken bucket got there. And through out the whole thing there are white people in a neighbooring house starring out the window, going they look so happy they look so happy.

Maybe i was reading into it to much, but i am white and for some reason it hit me the wrong way and it looked racisit. Not sure if anyone knows what i am talking about but that was terrible.

Although its so hard to pick because 7-8 out of 10 commercials are terrible.

I agree 100%. Something about that plastic King creeps me out too.

Why can't they just have a man dress up like a king?? Why do they need the fake face on it?

:king: :whoknows:

I'm white too, and i thought that one was hysterical! I thought of the old school Dave Chappelle standup part where he talks about black people and chicken.

I agree it was funny, and its hilarious on chappelle, but i just thought it was out of place in a KFC commercial.

you all have seen the mcdonalds commercials right? Like the one where there are a bunch of black people rollerblading/playing basketball at the same time...its like the advertising agency just threw darts at a board and then said "yes...yes that seems crappy enough to make"


now lets talk best commercial....the easter motors one with lavar and portis...pure gold:cheers:

dannyboy70
March-23rd-2005, 12:57 PM
Every Eastern Motors commercial (where your job is your credit - ha haaaa)

Also can't stand the ones where the kid are yelling at their friends with megaphones to get them to go to school. Perhaps the most annoying commercials ever. I change the channel every time they come on.

I don't like those "truth" Anti-smoking commercials. And I'm not saying that because I'm a smoker (I actually quit 2 years ago) I know non smokers that hate those commercials too. The new ones with the suits in the office, just awful....

As for the BK commercial, the plastic king pushing Brooke Burke is OK, the one with him in bed with the guy is just creepy....

just skins baby
March-23rd-2005, 01:34 PM
What about these Ad Council commercials with the girl with the megaphone, the guy on the schoolbus, the guy laying on the couch talking to his sock.

The colon polyp being chased through the park is another one. The girl that gets busted reading a note from her mom in class. Man I watch too much TV.

I used to get nightmares from that SunTrust commercial with the guy dressed like Ben Franklin singing "Don't You Want Me?" Those were just disturbing.

The ones that just piss me off are the anti-pollution ads with "Iron Eyes" Cody who was a fraud who passed himself off as an American Indian, but was actually a 1st-gen Sicilian-American.

Yeah, I'm not a smoker, but I hate those truth commercials. As if people who smoke think it's good for them or something.

What about all the ads for men and women personal issues. I am trying to say this without being too blunt.

Disfunction, Tampons etc. It seems like they are every other commercial now!

Old Navy. I hate Old Navy now because of their commercials. What makes you hate them all the more & what drives you over the edge is that they run them constantly. Those are the worst.

And the Mazda commercials with that creepy little "Zoom, zoom" kid. He gives me the creeps for some reason.

I know I'm reviving an old one here, but damn, if i have to hear that jerkoff scream "ITS MINE PEYTON!!!!" and "hey Butkus...COME WATCH THE BEARS!!" I'll cancel my direct tv.

That and the stupid Tiger woods commercial where he's asking the golfball questions and has that annoying fake questioning tone at the end of every sentece. "...and drOP?"

I hate the Geico commercial that starts off with the newlywed couple living in a small house. When I first saw it I thought it was a preview for another bad reality tv series. But it turned out to be just another dumb commercial. :puke:

That pink in the sink commercial is disturbing...:puke:

I f**king hate those Western Union commercials that give the reasons why people need money. So stupid. The one with the elephants on the plane, and the one where the guys tire gets blown out by the circus performer's sword....ugh. I change the channel immediately.

The worst are the automakers.

"Like a rock, I was strong as I could be ... oooohhh like a rock!" They havent changed that crappy commercial for 15 years.

But it's been passed by

"Im a Ford Truck Man
Thats all I drive
Dont got no boundaries
Dont compromise!"

Twang! Ohhh Im a Nascar Badass!

I loathe Old Navy commercials as well. Just plain irritating.

I'll throw in a vote for those K-Swiss commercials with a bunch of hip and urban yet surprisingly clean cut kids sitting around rapping about how their shoes look.

They started out bad, and now there's a new one out that's even worse.

The "rats" were called spongemonkeys.

In Baltimore they show a Gebco (local auto insurance) commercial with Jonathan Ogden dancing with a bunch of wanna be strippers. Absolutly horrible.

In DC they used to show commercials for a man who gives sub-prime loans. He looked like the father from Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

"He fought for our country, I'll fight for him. APPROVE THAT LOAN!"

The Geico commercial I saw last night was pretty bad. It starts off as a documentary on salmon and the bears that hunt them...........then something about saving alot on insurance.

Ohhh great call on the K-SWISS commercials. Those made me vomit a little in my mouth.

Up here we've got Bob's Discount Furniture and various car dealership commercials where, after watching them, I feel a strange magnetic urge to gouge out my eyes and rend my ears from hy head.

By the way, I, for one, like the Geico commercials. Especially that really small house one... that was rich.

Perhaps my favorite recent commercial is the Trident commercial. 4 out of 5 doctors recommend Trident to blah blah blah. What about the fifth doctor? <squirrel enters through window, climbs up pants leg, and bites doctor's nuts> "NOOOO!" :laugh: Oh, man, laughed for a good 5 minutes on that one. You can watch it here.
