Commercials That Annoy, Irritate or Outright Enrage

I like Montell Jordan. He can sing, This Is How We Do It, till the cows come home & I still wouldn't get sick of it. I rather hear that song, than that idiot who sings that stupid, Whip Nae Nae song & dance to that crap. I'm should be thankful that someone hasn't thought of putting that stupid song & dance into their commercials. 

 

Speaking of crap, I have to see those very creppy & very repulsive Happy Meal characters promoting The Peanuts Movie for McDonald's. Why don't those fools at McDonald's understand that those characters are very stupid & very irritating and it makes me want to have nothing to do with their crummy Happy Meals? There is nothing cute or funny about them & I really hate them. 

 

I can't anymore with "This is How We Do It" and it is mostly because of the commercials.  Its one thing to hear the song, in its entirety, or near entirety on an old school jam station or at a club doing 90's night.  Its another thing to hear a 30 second clip over, and over, and over, and over and over and over, because its used in so many commercials.  I'll be sad if anyone gets a hold of anything by Bell, Biv, Devoe for commercial use.

 

Awwww, I love old school Peanuts cartoons/movies.  There is something both odd and soothing to me about the old school cartoons.  I'm not sure what the new movie is, or if they are going to try to pretty it up with CGI (which I think is weird for cartoons)

 

Apparently Campbell's is joining Starbucks as "that's so yesterday".  Kohl's department stores' new ad featuring a same-sex couple onscreen for a couple seconds has all the poutragers flooding their Facebook page now.

LOL.  It really is day old news to have a same sex couple in commercials now.  Its funny for everyone to clutch their pearls every time it happens, and for others to act like its Stonewall.

 

I hate you people for causing me to look up Whip Nae Nae. 

 

I'm not gonna do it!

There are always interracial friendships when there are multiple people in a commercial.  Groups of people at a bar?  They'll be white people, black people, Hispanic people (sometimes, but not that often, Asian people).  If there are three women in an ad, one of them will be black.

And she will be sassy!  Because thats how all us black women are.....sassy creatures!  And Asian women are busy at home doing math.

That's because our faces get a red flush when we drink .

And the way your son is handling that package does not bode well for that guinea pig, whether he is in that package or not. Dude you have a special family, short bus riding in nature.

That kid is such a dead-eyed psychopath.Like, he asked for an actual live animal and then opens his presents by beating the shit out of them rather than unwrapping them? Serial killer....!

Why don't actors in commercials learn to enunciate? Every time I see this I think she's saying "Emmanuel".

I think our language is slowly being whittled away to just the bare minimum.  Soon vowels and even consonants will disappear.  140 characters will be the maximum you will be allowed.

It doesn't help that she says her dentist told her, "Don't get just any one," meaning any toothbrush, but because she doesn't enunciate it sounds like she's saying 'anyone'. It makes me think she's about to go out and hire some dude named Emmanuel to clean her teeth, which is just weird.

I can't stand that Whip Nae Nae crap and the dance just looks stupid.  Which means, very shortly, there will be a commercial featuring the song and dance.

Now that you mention it...I'm very sick of that song, but I did enjoy a few weeks ago, when Nickelodian used Silento (The Whip-NaeNae singer) to sing an ad for an upcoming weekend cartoon party. He would sing stuff like, "Do the pee-pee dance," and show clips of various characters doing the pee-pee dance. It was very cute.

Exactly!

So the Million Moms are outraged that there's a boy in the new Barbie commercial, but my outrage is, why did they have to make him sterotypically gay?

THANK YOU! I think it's a bit queer (pardon the pun) to show a little boy so enthused about "Mosquito Barbie", but why did they make him such a flamer from the 1990's? I don't think I've heard "fierce" used for quite awhile. At least use something from the 21st century, like "fabulous".

Yes! They should be outraged by his haircut not that he plays with Barbie. Plus, that Barbie is dressed like a dominatrix hooker which has me outraged.

well....at least she has career ambitions?

 

...but a career woman may also be too progressive for the Million Moms.

Since my mouth fell open as soon as it started and stayed that way to the end, I could probably go frame by frame and find something to be outraged by in each of them.  That a boy is included in this fuckery is not going to make my list, however.

Combine that with the increase in people noun-ing their verbs and verbing their nouns, along with increasing the things that words mean until they can mean opposite things ("literally"), and I predict that we'll all end up talking like texting caveman Smurfs. "Me smurf to smurf on smurf, not smurf with smurf. lol."

I'm tired of the cellphone ad in which Lily grabs a pretzel and gives half of it to someone else.

I'm confused, you can't be affectionate with your own child now?  Boy, people have certainly become fucked up these days.  I knew that was her son.  

 

Now, the commercial I can't stand is the one for some sort of car you can test drive.  A woman and her son take Christmas presents out of a car; and there's a salesman in the car who asks if they could go back to the dealership, and the woman says, "Don't you want to meet my family?"  WTF, who says that?  Why would you ask a total stranger to meet your family?  I can't stand commercials where people are selfish, all about ME, ME, ME and it's supposed to be seen as cute.  

 

Ugh yes.  The "don't you want to meet my family" said in her pouty-verging-on-whiney voice seriously grates.

Well, I guess some people are smarter than the fucked up others.  But to me, looking like you're half an inch from planting a big wet one on your son's lips is going beyond parental affection.   At least the kind of parental affection I'm comfortable with.  And this is going back years.  It's not some sort of PC affectation I've picked up in recent times.

 

I never read that deeply into it. She loves/adores her son.  Nothing wrong with that.

No biggie, and I've never even been to a Panera's, but the chick doing the voice over for their turkey sandwich annoys me. "Carved THICK". I can visualize her tongue sticking out between her teeth on the "thick".

 I've seen that commercial a number of times, and her pronunciation of "thick" doesn't sound abnormal to me at all.   Like, how else is she supposed to pronounce the "th" sound and not have her tongue stick out between her teeth? 

I just can't stand the Panera commercial with the dad eating his sandwich off his baby's butt.  Yes, I know the kid is wearing a diaper, but geese, put the kid down and get a freaking plate !!!!!!!!!  To be honest, I can't stand any of the Panera commercials when they make people look like insane gluttons, shoving their salads in their mouths, like they haven't eaten in months.  Time for Panera to get a new ad agency.

The Bob Mackie Barbies were collectors' items, although the idea of a shelf full of boxed Barbies is pretty creepy.

Fuck you, Verizon, and your "Thanks-getting" ad.  Thanksgiving is not about getting.  Wait till Christmas before  you become grabby.

I know!  This ad really bugs me, as does the (whatever) car commercials with people gloating about how much money they saved on Black Friday by buying themselves a car.

This may be a retread but it's on eleventy times an hour...

Your perfect driving record DOES get you something, asswipes, namely a discount on your premiums UNTIL YOU CRASH INTO SOMEONE AND YOUR RECORD IS NO LONGER PERFECT AND THAT IS HOW INSURANCE WORKS WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT???

ITA!!  This drives me nuts!  I guess I understand why it's being done (to explain the plan I guess) but holy crap honey put your hands my yummy pretzel and I would go ape!  I guess the execs thought this would be funny but I just feel my blood boiling.

I have a Mattel collectors Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra, mint in box.  I collect dolls (not Barbie) and picked it up at a doll show for ten bucks only because I've seen them at the larger doll shows for a hundred and fifty.  It's really beautiful.

Sweet Lord, it's flu season, so we have the Tamiflu commercial back, but this year instead of a Gulliver's Travel's man, we have a woman.  I hate those stupid commercials.  In this one, the woman walks like she's got a pants full of crap in her PJ's

I keep thinking she's the mother of the Nationwide crying baby.

I wish that bitch would try to take half my pretzel.  I just wish she would.
