Those advertisements with the truck snowboarding down a mountain. You're selling a truck by showing it doing something it CAN'T EVEN FUCKING DO.

I wish I had seen this thread earlier, because I could chime in on every single fucking post to this point. But there's so many examples, I'm not sure I'd be adding anything. Carry on, gentlemen.

EDIT: Venk (who came up huge with the acne one) might have seen me bitching about this on Facebook a few weeks ago. Nonetheless, here it is:
HEADON! Apply directly to the forehead!

Agreed, it says in the disclaimer "The truck cannot do this."

then...I don't get the point of the commercial one bit. It's simply a waste of time in the end.

4 Hour HeadOn Commercial [TEST VIDEO]

 

[alkeiper]

Ok. This Cherrios commercial with six people sitting at a restaurant table is getting seriously irritating.

Yeah, it wasn't that bad when it first aired, but now I wish they'd all choke on their cereal.

4 Hour HeadOn Commercial [TEST VIDEO]

Oh it's on motherfucker. I made it through all 3 hours of this:
I'M ULTIMATE, I'M CHAMPION, I'M MEGA, NO WAY! for 3 hours
So I'm prepared. BRING IT ON...HEADON!

 

[Smues]

I made it, though my brain is pretty much mush right now. This is what it sounded like as I went along:
1st hour: Head on, apply directly to the forehead.
2nd hour: Head on! Applied a wreckly to the floorhead.
3rd hour: Hehdon, a pledge of rat leeches the floor heh.
4th hour: Kill the non believers and do my bidding.

It was a sad day when CTV started simulcasting NFL playoff games up here. Five dollar footlong commercial every five goddamn minutes and bumpers for American shows they claim are "CTV's." Fucking awful.

I love Jim Parsons knocking on my TV screen.

Five.

Five dollar.

Five dollar foot looooooooooong.

The endless ads for crappy tv shows that are repeated over and over and over are terrible. I'm not even sure how some of those are supposed to get someone to watch. There's one that's a 10 second clip of some girl saying "What if everything you wanted isn't enough" or such. What is that show even about??

 

[TheSSNintendo]

I didn't care for those Tanqueray (not sure if I spelled it right) liquor commercials.. Only because the guy had an annoying laugh at the end.

Just saw it while watching RAW, but I really hate the Visa commercial with the dumbasses complaining about an 'old dolphin' (which is clearly a manatee). I'm not sure how that commercial would convince anybody to get a Visa card.

Yes. I mean, come on.

After about 3 minutes of ULTIMATE MEGA CHAMPION NO WAY I was rocking back and forth in the corner

The couple in the discount double check ad who just seem to be hanging out at a fucking insurance office need to be killed for the good of humanity.

That McDonalds commercial with the guy muttering "pickles" over and over is starting to get annoying.

indeed. When you actually look into these sites and see how big of a scam they are it's even more annoying

The commercial with Alonzo Bodden doing Stoke Awareness standup is starting to irritate me. Stroke No Joke.

uSell's Latest Commercial, Featuring Bobby "The Auctioneer"

If you're in charge of any kind of company what so ever...how do you think it's a good idea to let this douchy spaz do your commercial?

'Lectric Shave

I watch a lot of Sportscenter, and they show the bejesus out of this damn Lectric Shave commercial. If this "drill sergeant" is barking orders to his facial hair. Sounds to me like he's suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and is likely to find himself waking up along side of his wife giving her a sleep-walking choke hold... And I don't think that the whiskers would be that excited to be severed by a razor blade.

I hate those annoying Boston Pizza chicken wing commercials. I keep hoping that food critic chokes to death on those fucking wings.

People think that's real. I know fucking people who think the guy, the society, and the terminology he uses are real!

Took the words right out of my mouth. It's not the commercials themselves that annoy me, but it re-enlightens me to how stupid people are as a whole. Similarly, and I remember bitching about this at TOTSM - Diamond Shreddies. Here's a not great example: Diamond or Square Shreddies?

I remember people seeing this when the commercials started in 2008, and subsequently saying "Well, I'll never buy Shreddies again! How stupid do they think we are! They're obviously the same! I won't support a company that thinks so low of its customers!". Guhhhhhhh.

I'd hate this too, if I didn't want to have sex with her. Which I do.
