Whats commercial gets on your nerves the most?

Subject says it all dosen't it?

For me it's that strange english commercial "Fiddlers Cod Crispies", for some reason I get an urge to smash my TV whenever they show that commercial.

Most commercials are an insult to our intelligence.
I can't stand the Jolly Ranchers cherry candy one though...the white girl dressed in red with the red afro and thee red poodle...no one in their right mind, and this includes insane people lol, would go out dressed like that.

Locally there is a satellite dish salesman~a big fat guy with buggy eyes that flails his arms while he talks fast and his head turns red from the exertion. His commercials end with him swinging one arm in circles at the elbow and stopping to point at the number we are suppoosed to call for such a deal. I am waiting to see him drop dead of a heart attack one of these days.

hated the commericals that tried to be 'cutesty'

I hate auto sales commercials. There is one, locally, that all the guy does is scream at the consumers. He screams "stop" in about 10 different languages, and then screams some more at us to stop and look at their car lot TODAY. I have to turn down the sound every time these horrid commercials come on....

And Moni....I hate that Jolly Rancher commercial too...I just sit and watch it with this look of horror on my face when it comes on...

A close tie between any Verizon commercial and any McDonald's commercial. The girl announcer's voices are too grating, whether they are talking or singing.

Wow, never heard of any of these, it's always interesting to see commercials from countries other than your own.
Never heard of 'fiddlers cod crispies' either. Are you sure it's English?

Well the only place i've seen it is on an english channel, so I am quite sure it is english, also, there is something english about it(Not the annoying part), just something english.

The worst commercial on British TV at the moment is for Colgate Herbal toothpaste. Its baddly dubbed from French? and is of such poor quality you have to wonder what the guy who commisioned it was playing at!

Moni, he's not just local. He must hire out over the state (Texas) to do those commercials.

I call him Sabastio! "Look, Sabastio's on!" ROFLMAO!!!
(It's a W&W joke...Moni will get it, I know! )
