- There was an ad for a Northern Kentucky auto dealer in which they repeatedly said and shouted "TRUCKS! TRUCKS! TRUCKS! TRUCKS! TRUCKS!" and it got so much louder and faster it started sounding like they were saying "DRUGS! DRUGS! DRUGS!.."

 

- Many commercials that feature this annoying voice-over lady (done by Channel 9 WCPO people). Oh and endless use of Arial Black... I stand by saying that Arial doesn't belong in print or TV use.

 

- Once again, Time Warner Cable.

 

- Argosy Casino "Fun Not Far" It's just on so often.

From the UK,

 

The Sheilass Wheels add, about ladies car insurance , it doesn't get much worse than this.

 

Also all those Debt advice companies that will put all your loans into one easy monthly payment loan instead, and injury claims ads too. Discovery channel features these ads all the time.

The new Quiznos ADs that blatantly make fun of Subway. Quiznos does not have bad food but they are over priced, their ADs are some of the lowest form of advertising I have seen in a while and plain and simple. I like Subway better. Now if Quiznos would concentrate on their positives and not take such low swipes at their competiition then maybe they can keep more than 2 of them in this area open.

I hate the commercial for flavored water with Kelly Clarkson.

It makes absolutely no sense at all.

She's on a talk show, charming a snake with a guitar, and it bites the host, and that's it.

I was like what's going on!?

*Bump*

 

I just saw another commercial I see too much of. Its for this company called JG Wentworth and its something about selling your insurance.

 

Narrator: Its your money, use it when YOU NEED it!

 

Random guy: It's my money, and I need it NOW!

Random girl: It's my money, and I need it NOW!

Group of random people: ITS MY MONEY, AND I NEED IT NOW!

 

You can see how that ad can get on your nerve, especially since its on TV a lot.

those commercials for jim sokolov(sp?) "I sprained my ankle, and my doctors tried to ignore me. Jim sokolov made them pay." the laughing started at "sprained my ankle" and stopped at "made them pay." another mighty fine example "my doctor said it was heartburn. it was a heart attack." DOCTORS RULE! "Jim sokolov made them regret their mistakes" I'm not even joking it went something like that.

^Mmm-hmmm...completely agree

 

Chevy commercials with John Mellencamp and his "This is our country" song. I used to like the song...until it became more used than the Star-Spangled Banner during college football games here in the States.

 

That and anything remotely related in any way to voting, politicians, politics, elections, etc...can't wait for another US election year in 2008...

I hate the Shielas' Wheels adverts. They're get so anoyying and song just gets stuck in your head all day and you can never seem to shake it off. Also, you hear everyone at at school singing so there's really no escape!

 

Another advert, or rather, branch of adverts are the ones by Ktel. BEH! They are about half an hour long and have some stupid womens voice in the background trying but not succeding at convincing you that any of the songs are decent enough even to listen to. Like the 'Tranquility one. Urgh. Hate it, too long, so anoying and all of the songs are absolute rubbish!

 

Stress over: time to calm down...

And... Relax...

"Lynel coin bank, Lynel coin bank!"

"Save your money, save your money!"

 

Or those commercials with Al from Home Improvement.

 

"Oxi clean blah blah blah...but wait we'll double the offer, but wait AGAIN!! we'll triple the offer and add in new Oxi Clean Devil Deodorizer absolutely free!"

 

"Mighty Putty blah blah blah...but wait we'll double the offer, but wait AGAIN!! we'll triple the offer and add in new Mighty Putty Ghetto Version, just mold it from white and it turns BLACK!"

 

"The Little Giant Ladder blah blah blah...but wait we'll double the offer, but wait AGAIN!! we'll triple the offer and add in new Oxi Clean Devil Deodorizer, Mighty Putty Ghetto Version, and a free random Meow Mix clock! All for $19.99!"

 

Or my absolute favorite...Scratch and Dent World!

 

"(Slaps washing machine) Come to Scratch and Dent world and save up to 70 percent off all scratch and dent appliances, (slaps dryer) Sure there scratched and dented but there 70 percent off, at Scratch and Dent World! Off Highway 441 in Leesburg!"
