Any tv commercials that gross you out?
I hate the Lamsil commercial when the Fungus lifts up the nail.. makes me shudder. It's been going on for a while... I hope it goes away soon!!

Also the recent Easy Mac commercial (with the mac on hand) where he eats bad milk. That's a loss of appetite right there.

1. Carl's Jr.
The 'Don't bother me. I'm eating' ones where people are smacking and slurping and generally being disgusting with their food.

Yuck.

4. Reminds me of..
The Visa take the Risk commercial.. one of their vingettes has a guy gobbling down a monster hamburger.

Why is that taking a risk?? A risk of clogged arteries???

9. Same here
I e-mailed CJ's back then to complain. Got an e-mail back from some PR dude who said they were re-evaluating that ad campaign. A few months later they toned it down some.

5. Yuck...
Sure glad that's not around. I hope the Fungus guy goes that way too... I don't know how much of that toenail lifting I can take.

6. The one for Mucinex
With that fat blob of mucus with arms, legs and a face.

8. I was just thinking of that one...
Especially when the guy "clears" the "snot" out.

That's like the internal workings of watching someone blow his nose.

10. The cereal commercial
where the guy is crunching his cereal so loud, he can't hear his boss trying to fire him. For that matter, any commercial where I have to listen to someone chew or slurp his food!
