I hate computer ads. They all pump up the price with add ons when you try to order one for the advertized $599 or whatever. Dell is the worst of them.

But the ads for things like payday and car title loans are really bad. You might as well say goodbye to your life if you go to one of those places. You'll never get out of debt with the interest they charge.
 
Lexus commercials. They crawl out of their hole at the same time of year as the "diamond pendant" :rolleyes: commercials. Get that big fricken bow off my car ******!

Apple lies to consumers.
what PC can't "communicate with that hot new camera from Japan" its called USB its all the rage these days !!!!

PC: Hi, I'm a PC. I can do everything a Mac can do and more, since all programming is originally done for a PC, then translated for a Mac. Plus, my software costs 1/3rd the price of a Mac. And you have your choice to purchase me and any of my components for an unlimited variety of vendors.

Mac: Hi, I'm a Mac. Umm...I look cool? And, uh, no one writes viruses for Mac's!!!!

PC: Actually, since you've been bragging about that so much, people have started writing Mac viruses.

Yes! I just began seeing those during football games and hate, hate, hate them!
 
Threre is a Nissan radio commercial here with a girl in the back ground screaming, "I WANT A PONY!" for the entire length of the commercial.

wooooooord up! i think this ad campaign is disgusting. right on the heels of iPod's peak of popularity so they decide to start slinging mud...but in a kindergarten playground kind of way, immature and no class.
"PC is such a nerd!"

btw, how can anyone live without right-clicking?
 
I love the "PC" guy on Daily Show, he's very funny. The ads are clever, and they do seem to be working (Apple's been picking up some market share), but ultimately they are bull****.
 
Odd Guy: Hi, I'm a self-constructed *Nix box. I live in Montana and write the viruses that can cripple either of you candy-asses. Believe it or not, you're both doing my bidding right at this very moment. And I never crash, so there's no stopping me. I can do everything and anything. Muahahahahah
 
I hate the DeBeer's Diamond commercials. All the classical music and silhouettes, they make me want to puke. And for what, a piece of the most common element on earth? When they started 'mining' diamonds in South Africa, they literally had thousands of people crawling around in their hands and knees filling coffee cans with diamonds they were picking up off the ground! They didn't even have to dig for them! I've heard DeBeers has storage facilities the size of oil refineries. </DeBeers diamond monopoly rant>

There is one good thing about those commercials, and that is the family guy version where at the end the female shadow goes off the frame down towards the guy's junk, and the voice-over says "Diamonds, she'll pretty much have to."
 
i was actually shocked that a company like bmw would use a home video of small boy (aided by his little sister) going bonkers over a christmas gift, ending in a fist-pumping "yes ... yes ... yes"

it was probably the 5th or 6th viewing that i realized it was bmw ... what were they thinking?

it made me wish the holidays were over

Obviously going for a target market of
superficial
vane
egotisical
greedy bastards.

So tool-like in their selfishness that they don't even recognize how most of the audience has to suffer through their pompousness.
 
The Yellow Pages commercial with David Carradine. Awful. Everytime I see it I think how great a movie Deathrace 2000 was and how this commercial is the exact opposite.
 
I hate the Manning commercials, particularly because we have to succomb to having Eli as our POS QB...but I hate the peyton commercials by proximity. bastids.
 
Where is the Ralph option?

...Ads in Australia are okay but I don't watch that much TV (SHMBO normally grabs the remote, puts some sh1te on and I retreat to my cellar to 'potter')

The only one that annoys me is for >50 insurance. A woman dressed ten / twenty years younger than she is with red glasses talking sh1te.
 
Any ad that shows the fit, well dressed guy using their product, while the fat slob neighbor just can't seem to get by with the competitor's product.
Any company that tries to sell me anything by gettin Mini Me to do a nonsensical rap.
Anything that can be bought for just three easy payments of just $29.95 plus S+H.
De Beers, for making me feel inadequate for not buying SWMBO a diamond tennis bracelet. She doesn't even play tennis! How 'bout a washing dishes or mowing the grass bracelet?
The pickup truck ads that makes having a pickup truck seem like the pinnacle of manliness. They show trucks getting a load of iron ore dumped in their beds to convince guys who might need to haul two sheets of plywood a year that they need a truck.
The Monday Night Football ads. No, I'm not ready for some football, no matter how loud you yell it.
 
Political commercials are definitely my most hated; but I think that's a given with most people. No politician has ever convinced me to vote for him or her because of the sh*t they slung in some 30 second ad. They're all in it for themselves. I live here in New Jersey and every politician here is corrupt.

Now when it comes to consumer goods, the damn Nutri System commercials are getting on my nerves. I can't stand hearing, "I'm a total chocoholic and any diet that let's me eat chocolate every day, is the diet for me!". Great for you, you annoying little b*tch!

Finally the new Volkswagon commercials with the artsy fartsy, infeminate guy in all white, are in stiff competition for "most annoying".
 
The new Office Depot commercial with the creepy hand that is like Thing from the Adam's Family.
 
Oh yeah, and in case your forgot....

This is our country.
 
There's a new commercial for these fruit-cups called Fruit-sations and in the voice-over woman says "With the unexpected taste of fruit!"

Unexpected? WTF? It's called "FRUIT-sation!" You just made me dumber than I was 30 seconds ago!!!!!!
 
How many Chevy commercials do we really need to see during these basketball games?

Also, please spare us the guilt-trip Chevy and Ford trucks commercials. Yes, you helped build this country but now your product is considered below average. Get over it. Maybe if you made reliable vehicles, you wouldn't be losing market share.
 
These are really starting to piss me off.

Got a new one:

The More Taste League commercials with the Commish.

Bingo!


Give me a break!

Miller lite should just go back to the Tastes great less filling schtick.
 
I absolutely hate any Geico commercial with that stupid CGI Gecko. I wanna rip his damn tail and beat him senseless with it.


But I love the Geico Caveman Commercials!
