Muffyn July 19, 2015 Share July 19, 2015 Not to go too far off topic, but I wonder what effect the upcycling trend has on hoarders. It's hard enough to convince those people to get rid of their hoards, but the Krylon commercials and shows like Flea Market Flip inflate hoarders' perception of the value of their junk. My tenant was a hoarder (a clean one, not the shit in a bucket type). He would watch those kinds of shows and get inspired. You can add in Antiques Roadshow that had him thinking every piece of garbage he found at a garage sale was secretly worth a fortune and the mind-numbing storage shows. Of course, he rarely sold any of it. When he moved from his one bedroom apartment, it took a 24' straight truck. He also had the largest storage pod and ended up having to rent another large storage unit. So yeah, I hate the commercials with the douchebags spray painting junk and reselling it to the original owners. Chances are he didn't sell you the bicycle because it wasn't shiny enough. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1339201

We helpless females, on the other hand, are expected to handle it all as part of our duties. Married Woman Alert time - ain't that the truth. My husband used to harp on me constantly for not "appreciating" the fact that he takes out the trash and looks after the cars. I ascertained that "appreciation" meant thanking him and acknowledging his service. I asked when the last time it was when he thanked or acknowledged me for making dinner, doing the laundry or cleaning the house. Because he's completely awesome, he just thought about it for a moment and then said "You know, you're right." He's not really ever thanked me, but he no longer gripes about not having his work around the house "appreciated." 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1343605
TeapotDiva July 21, 2015 Share July 21, 2015 I just saw a commercial that immediately made me want to tear out my hair ~ or, better yet, the hair of whoever thought this was a clever commercial. It's for something called slingtv.com. Apparently this is a much better option than cable TV, which is represented in the ad by children who work for a company called "Old TV." The children are stereotypical bullies, most of them fat and nasty (I always thought it was the fat children who were the ones being bullied, but not here; this one has kids like Butch in the Little Rascals [yes, I'm old]). The sadistic bully children intimidate adults who either use their service (sticking a wet finger in the ear of a woman who questions the additional fees for renting her cable box, etc.) or who refuse to sign up for their service (giving a wedgie to a man in the parking lot of a supermarket). Some other poor guy gets slammed to the ground and has grass shoved in his mouth; maybe he complained about his bill? I guess it's supposed to be funny to show children in their little gray "Old TV" polo shirts, showing us the worst qualities of the rip-off cable companies that we all love, but somehow showcasing bullying children leaves a bad taste in my mouth. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1343667

Not only for how inconsiderate she is, but because the salesman completely shafts the customer to assuage her ego. ("She's in the zone.")

smittykins July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 Well, remember the ad where the husband's watching football, and the wife asks him if he's called about the car insurance; he says yes. But then she asks if he's compared rates, he admits he hasn't, so she hands him the phone. That had to be about 7-8 years ago.

Rick Kitchen July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 She manages to say, "kitty" correctly. But that Kitt-ten thing is too weird. Maybe it's a Canadian thing? I think she's from Vancouver, Washington.

Prevailing Wind July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 I think she's from Vancouver, Washington. Well, then...crap. I'm done trying to figure out why she speaks like a fucktwit ;-) 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1348018
Aquarius July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 (edited) The Taco Bell thing's a "Chickstar" because it's like a chicken variation of their Crunchwrap Supreme, in which the tortilla's wrapped around the filling(s) so that it--very loosely--looks like some sort of star with more than 5 points. Personally, I always thought the Crunchwrap Supreme & Chickstar looked more like a hexagon, septagon, or octagon than a star, but I also think they kinda look like the "star" that's the logo (or was) for Chrysler Corporation/cars. OK, thanks for the explanation. I understand what youve written, but still, WTF??

Flnurse July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 This Graco commercial annoys the HECK out of me and is playing a lot. The baby's back and forth and mom's voice...UGH To top it off, I'm appalled at this commercial....Who the hell would place a child on the kitchen floor while cooking? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mj0a6tWGIQ8&feature=player_detailpage Just saw this commercial this morning and guess what? No longer showing the baby in the kitchen at ALL. Must have gotten complaints. :) 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1348337
St. Claire July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 (edited) I'm a crappy mom, apparently, because I used to bring the bouncy seat or baby carrier to the kitchen all the time when my youngest was little. My son would get fussy if he couldn't see me, so I would stick him on the floor in the carrier while I prepared dinner (in the doorway between the rooms, not right under the stove). He was fine if he could sense me in the room, but if he was in the living room and I was in the kitchen, he would howl. The chance that I was spoiling him was outweighed by the preservation of my eardrums after a long day.

I also brought my kids in the kitchen while I cooked, but they were showing her place the baby right under the stove, as you mentioned. Some idiot probably did that, burn their kids, and now threatening a lawsuit is my guess. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1349207
St. Claire July 22, 2015 Share July 22, 2015 In addition to it not being safe for baby right near the stove, I probably would have tripped over the baby carrier and broke my nose when I faceplanted on the kitchen floor! I'd be like the black-and-white portion of an infomercial for a doorway baby seat. "Do you maim yourself and your baby when you try to cook dinner? Keep CPS away from your house with the Door-sling! No more grease splatter on the baby's head! No more broken bones for Mama!" 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/96/#findComment-1349381
