Can't stand this commercial. Offensive or annoying or both...
Post the commercial that bugs you the most!

On edit:
And then....
I found this on Slate.com, I wish the US was ready.

1. All of them (nt)

[femmocrat]

6. Same here.

I put them on mute, FF, or change the channel. I especially hate those Cialis ones.

[Wounded Bear]

2. Yeah, that strudel kid...

is kind of creepy.

[frogmarch]

3. He's actually Austrian and

did/does the yodeling himself. I know these things because he annoyed me so I googled him.

One commercial that really annoys me is the "Sam in my pants" one. Agh!

[femmocrat]

7. I thought he was an animation!

[rurallib]

4. political commercials, especially of the Repub variety

then most of the rest.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

5. ARGHhh, YES! Specifically the strudel one with the kid going "Worst. Morning. Ever"

Why, kid? Why is it the worst morning ever? Because there's nothing you particularly like for breakfast? And your xbox died? Favorite shirt in the laundry? Why?
Tell you what, you little over-privileged bratsicle, we're going down to the food pantry or PADS this morning and we're going to help some people who can hardly dream of what you have right now. And you can wait till we get back to have your fucking breakfast and it's going to be whatever we find in the cupboard, capisce?

[lame54]

25. he's hungover

[Rhiannon12866]

8. I can't stand that kid, either!

He irritates me even more than the bears who love toilet paper.

[Jenoch]

9. I'm in Minnesota

and frankly, I am already tired of the political TV spots, from both sides.

[Tom Kitten]

10. Those "Less Painful Catheter" commercials

makes me cringe even thinking about them

[Initech]

12. Yeah and the keywords there are "less painful".

[Initech]

11. Any commercial that relies on a terrible song parody.

First Macaroni Grill very badly parodies Sir Mix A Lot's "Baby Got Back" and now Fiber One very badly parodies "Take My Breath Away". Leave the song parodies to Weird Al, please?

[U4ikLefty]

17. or that Mercedes Benz commericial with Janis Joplin's song.

ugh!

[lame54]

26. "Never. They never say ribs'"

[RebelOne]

32. Any song that uses the tune from Ghostbusters,

"Who You Gonna Call."

[ohnoyoudidnt]

13. Aside from the pharmaceuticals, every Sonic commercial. nt

[IDemo]

22. Beat me to it..

[Jamaal510]

14. Off the top of my head,

most GEICO commercials (especially the ones with the pig) and Papa John's annoy me the most.

[AwakeAtLast]

15. I think I may have you beat

I am warning anyone with a strong gag reflex - DO NOT WATCH!!!

I give you - Value City Furniture:

I am NOT amused!

[kairos12]

16. Any commercial that waves a flag and equates driving a truck with freedom.

[Initech]

18. Any commercial relating to the iPhone 6.

Argh I'm so sick of hearing about the iPhone 6 that I could...

Give me a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 or LG G3 any day of the week.

[sharp_stick]

20. Apple ads got really lame

after Steve Jobs died. They used to at least be imaginative now they're just another set of ads.

[sharp_stick]

19. Pickup Truck Ads

I love Sam Elliot but his moronic Dodge Ram commercials make me gag. Add those to the ones that pretend that the only way you're gonna be a man is to buy a new pickup and take everyone off road to a blazing firepit.

Off road to 90% of pickup owners is accidentally driving over a fucking curb.

[chemenger]

21. We Buy Any Car Commercial

Kit Kat Commercials ... that little jingle of theirs is really, really irritating

Nationwide commercial where the guy is putting his words into their jingle ... ie: "chicken parma is really good"

Basically any loud and/or annoying commercial with irritating, earworm jingles.

Poptart commercials


BTW ... that toaster strudel kid is creepy.

[IDemo]

23. Jack in the Box and Sonic n/t

[lame54]

24. This one right here...

Grandma is holding on the phone for this ungrateful jerk and he says "You're not helping."

Of course she is helping you spoiled dickhead

I must be the only one who feels this way because they play it constantly

[pintobean]

27. My wife and I scramble for the remote

to hit the mute button whenever this one comes on.

[ArnoldLayne]

28. That one with Fred Thompson about Reverse

Mortgages. He doesn't even pay Jesse for that Newspaper, the Arrogant Tight Ass.

[ArnoldLayne]

30. And then he gives a shout out to President Raygun.

[vanlassie]

29. Cialis For Daily Use.

[Initech]

33. I've always wondered why...

Women's birth control is such a faux pas in society but Viagra and Cialis are advertised around the clock on every channel 24 hours a day, every30 seconds?

[OriginalGeek]

31. I love this guy

Family Auto Mart - local FLorida used car dealer - had a series of commercials that mad e me laugh. THey are so terrible they are great.

[Initech]

34. There's a guy here in Los Angeles - Cal Worthington.

And he made commercials that were just as cheesy as those. In fact Jack Black paid tribute to him in a commercial for his upcoming comedy and music show called "Festival Supreme":

[OriginalGeek]

35. Cal is probably cool with me

Cheesy is one of my favorite things

But DAMN, that Festival Supreme looks awesome!

[Initech]

36. Yes it does!

Tickets aren't cheap though, I want to go but the cheapest I could find tickets for was like $110.

[OriginalGeek]

40. Well, it's peanuts per act

if you consider all the performers - but yeah, that's a lot of bones all at once. Too bad there's no a la cart menu lol.

[Skittles]

38. HA HA HA OMG

those are so over the top ridiculous! I LOVE THEM!!!

[OriginalGeek]

39. That's barely a fraction of all the commercials he did

For a while he was doing half hour infomercials of just all that up there jammed together. if I was up late at night flipping through channels and ran across it I just couldn't keep flipping channels. I had to stop and watch the whole thing.

[Skittles]

37. the cleaning product ones that only feature women

as if only women use cleaning products

any commercial where those same women are overly excited about the featured cleaning product

[elias49]

41. Oh, geez. The "Toaster Strudel" ad. I can't stand it!

I'd love to flick the hat off that kid's head!

[Danmel]

42. the toaster strudel ad is bizarre

The new sprint ad with the shrieking women breaking glass is awful as well.
