Commercials that make you laugh and cringe at the same time
The AOL commercial where the woman comes in with her "famous apple crumb cake" she made for AOL helping protect her from "identity theft." Ok, I'm sorry, but she makes me cringe. I just wanna smack her. I know it makes me a real asshole, but I'm OK with that.

Same commercial. When the guy tells her it's not just him but a whole team of people, and they all start prairie doggin' over the cube walls. Then the one girl slides out from her cube and says, "I smell cake." She's just so dead serious about it. Cracks me up every time.

There it is. A commercial that makes me laugh and cringe all within the same 30 second span.

3. The Geico cavemen commercials.
Freakin' brilliant. There's plenty of space in each to enjoy the reaction to the airhead who says, "So simple, even a cavemen could do it."

4. Not sure I really LAUGH at these
But the people on the "Bob" Enzyte commercials sure are stupid.

6. I haven't turned on the TV since May
So I can't think of any commercials right off the bat.
