OK guys what are the TV Ads that get right up your craw.
For me it has to be, those insurance ads with Michael Winner "Calm down dear, it`s not a real bomb" "Oh S**t"
And the Halifax Ads with Howard. I...Hate...Howard...Kill...Howard |

The halifax ones arn't too bad lol, the worst ones are on all of skys music channels: the bloody crazy frog, dragon, chick, teddy bear and other assorted 'things'.
"Text:
'I have nothing better to do with my life than buy ringtones'
to some random number"
I love the ad with people driving cars updside-down along the streets and diving through windows, think it's for lynx or something lol.
Alot of those insurance ads seem to have died off though, every other ad seemed to be "have you had an accident at work? In the office? Or in the Street? Well call us!"
...Maybe I watch too much tv lol! |

I dont even have a TV 
1)
Dont have to buy a TV license.
2)
Dont have to put up with the crap on TV.
I'm talking about the programs... the ads are the highlights inbetween periods of bordem. |

LOL, fair enough Garner.
I love most beer commercials, especially the Stella Artois one with the pilot getting shot down, and hiding in a bar, then the bar man giving him up, cos he doesnt want to waste precious Stella 
Cant think of the worst one, but the ones you guys have mentioned are annoying.... hmm.. need to go and watch TV for a DAY to find the worst TV ad |

I recently saw a videogame college commercial, it WAS SO STUPID!!
okay, here we go:
Guy 1: "uh oh, the boss is coming in!"
Guy 2: "hold on, im almost done with level 4!"
Boss: "have you guys finished designing that game? i have another that needs to be made."
Guy 1: "were almost done with level 4, but we need to tighten up the graphics,"
the reason its so stupid is cuz they are playing on a playstation 1! you cant design games on a playstation! also, one of the guys is like having a frikin seizure on the controller and pressing every button at the same time. it just looks so CENSORED they talk like you can design a full game in like, 20 minutes. |

I hated this one TXU (Texas Utilities) commercials because this one guy was like, "I like to think...I think everywhere...I think when I'm cutting veggies, "Oh! I just thought of something" ...I've got to remember to pick up more tomatos." The theme was that their electricity was so easy you don't have to think about it.
The best one I ever saw was a superbowl commercial where this guy gives his girlfriend a candle while they are on a horse drawn carrage. Then he reaches down to get a beer and the horse farts at the candle and barbeques the girlfriend CENSORED . Then he comes back up sniffs and he says, "Do you smell barbeque?" Then he looks over at the girlfriend who is burnt black to the crisp and he jumps back and says, "WOA!" |

In my opinion, the worst commercials (other than that REALLY BAD Video game colledge Ad) Would have to be those god forbidden "Wanna Fanta" commercials!
WHY GOD?!?! WHY!?!?!? |
When they come, I will join them... Hail the Penguins! |
