I think they're milking the "So easy a caveman can do it." A bit too much.

I mean I like them, but they come so often that they lost there touch.

I agree with the Alltel, White Castle Pulled Pork, and FinallyFast.com mentions.

I see this commercial all the time and absolutely hate it. Don't know why, but it grinds my gears big time:

Extenze. You can't watch late night TV without seeing at least one Extenze commercial every commercial break. It's really obnoxious.

"That special male part."

What's sadder is that apparently it's working, because people are buying it - hence, why they're able to show so many commercials, and according to their spokeswoman, "why would we be giving away free samples if we couldn't afford to do so?" I think I may have just quoted her verbatim. I've seen/heard that commercial about one hundred and one times.
This is no joke: I have, on several occasions, slept with the TV left on on Comedy Central and had random women appear in my dreams talking about extenze. I didnt even feel like it was a commercial in my dreams.

People were just having casual conversation about extenze saying the same **** over and over again. I almost bought into it saying stuff like "yeah, extenze sounds pretty good; i might try some myself"; and i didnt even comprehend what extenze was. it was probably the tone of that annoying woman's voice that made me think "wtf, y dont i already have this??"

weird ****

QFT, the ones in my city..well let's just say you can tell they use Power Point:ohwell:
Just sad. Some local commercials in my area have logos that look like they were made with mspaint :mad: .

And I also hate those commercials for local lawyers: "Have you been injured in a car accident? Call me today and I'll get you the cash you deserve!" And also those medical recall commercials: "IF U OR A LUVD 1 HAZ TAKIN METROCHLORANIAPHLOMACROPROJIKOLOL, AND HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH MEASLES, SORE THROAT, LUNG CANCER, AND EVEN DEATH, U MAE B INTITLD TO A CA$H SETTLEMENT". I swear I have seen ones with ALL CAPS just like that. They are the worst in Texas for some reason. :ohwell: Kindly GET OUT of my tv, please. :grrr:

:embarrass

I'm taking it's just another local commercial?
Eh, guess so. I've never really gone enough places to know if it's anywhere else.

Also,

ONE-EIGHT-HUNDRED-SAFE-AUTO

Is that better, or does "eight-hundred" count as two words now? :ohwell:

Technically it's all ONE word considering the hyphens :psycho:

Yeah sounds like it would be stupid. I am all in all REALLY SICK of auto insurance commercials.

Actually, I think I just saw a safe auto commercial.

Theres this dumb*** commercial that comes on in my area called the "autoconnection," and it has this stupid ugly dog that dances by computer animation and the speaker of the commercial keeps talking to the dog...

If anyone in my area has seen this, it's extremely ghetto and annoying, especially with the dog's ***** plainly visible.

Let me put this simply.

HI, BILLY MAYS HERE FOR *blahblahblahblah, insert weird hand motions that don't match speech with loud screaming here*

As much as I respect Mays and his trade, PLEASE pull the amplifier out from your throat. >_>

I've recently come to hate those new jack in the box commercials for the new mini buffalo ranch chicken sandwich. The song is just so annoying. Also those Jamster commercials for ringtones.. I sware if I hear that stupid " Im a gummy bear " song again, someone will die!

Shamwow? You can hate Shamwow? I just like Vince...he sounds like such an ******* that you just have to love him. :laugh:

I've noticed no one mentioned any commercials dealing with things like menstrual bleeds or yeast infections. I swear, I hear more about a woman's period in the span of two hours than I've ever desired to hear in my life.

Any esurance commercial, and that acne commercial when the kid is camping in a acne area of a store. Then some pedo doctor comes up and goes "kid get a life" and kid goes "IMMMM TRYIING" the doctor says crap and with the kids amazing acting skills he knows he has to hold out "oooooooooooooooooo" for aslong as he can.

FREAKING HATE THAT COMMERCIAL!!!

One thing I don't understand is his headset. Just why? Oh, and I agree with you on the 2nd part, though the Viagra type stuff is worse.
