Which commericals on TV anywhere are the most annoying/disgusting? For example:

1. Miss Cleo the Psychic.
2. The "Gotta Go" bladder-control pill.
3. Bloussant.
4. The Fisher-Price vehicle ad with the song "I'm So Excited" (I HATE that song!).

LOL, I love the look on that Japanese guy's face when he is pouring the water and that women gets up to go to the bathroom. He looks so shocked, it's hilarious! But other than that that commercial is pretty annoying.

And what are these "Mother Love" commercials? They aren't ringing any bells with me.

Hmmm right now I can't think of the commercials I don't like, only the ones I do. Probably because I always change the commercial quickly when a commercial I hate comes on.

It was the psychic commercial of the early 90's.

well since u said disgusting a commercial that comes to my mind would be the one where the lady wipes that sandwich on the edge of the table to get the mayonnaise off of it. i think that is soooo disgusting!!!

Bootsy Whoosh · 06-02-2001, 07:12 PM

Those Best Buy commercials are kind of disgusting...those ones that say "wouldn't it be nice if you could try everything out before you bought it?" and they show people walking around stores using tissues and putting them back in the box, taking bites out of food and putting them back on the shelf, and there's even this one where some guy is in a home improvement store and he sits down on a toilet in the middle of the store!

I think those commercials are kind of funny, but I found the used tissue thing pretty gross.

I can't stand the Yaffa commericals I think that is one of the stupiedest name to call anything. That commerical drives me crazy. This Commerical is local this young girl talks on this commerical and It's about her gramndpas business and it's lifetime homes and everytime at the beginning of the commercial she says Hi I'm Ashley and she says it snooty I can't stand that at all.

In the Chicago area, we have these commercials for Empire Carpets (588-2300--EmPIIIIRE!). They've been around for years now, but they get more and more annoying all the time, especially with the song-and-dance men who sing and dance their butts off during all the major holidays. They look and sound really stupid. For example, every Easter, they dress up like bunnies and do the Bunny Hop for the Spring/Easter sale.

"Call RotoRooter, that's the name, and away go troubles down the drain. RotoRooter!"

LaverneShirley · 06-03-2001, 04:58 PM

Well, some poeple have already mentioned the worst ones, Yaffa (stack them on top of each other like skyscrapers! 1-800-GO-YAFFA! UGH!) and Rotorooter. I also hate the local commercials for Adlephia Cable andd Toot's Restaurant (especially annoying. "C'mon down to Toot's off I-75. Great fun for the whole family" "My husband can watch football and my kids love the video games!" It's soooo annoying" The Cleo commercials are annoying, too. Oh! That oe for some air conditioning thing, I think Sears. It's like, been on for years. Where there's this couple and they're like "Today's gonna be hot. Just like yesterday" "Yesterday? Yesterday you said you'd call Sears" "I'll call today" "You call now" "I'll call now" then a moment later they're talking again "What's tomorrow gonna be like?" "Another scorcher!" "Cool" Drives me nuts.

Ugh. "Miss Cleo" drives me nuts. Has anyone seen those Beaches/Sandals commercials? The ones with the catchy tunes, I guess -- Beaches has Madonna's Holiday and Sandals's "I've had the time of my life" -- those rank up on my list of somewhat annoying commercials. They air those like all the time, and it ANNOYS me so much!

Love is patient and kind, it is not jealous or conceited or proud; love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil but with the truth. Love never gives up, and its faith, hope, and patience never fail. Meanwhile these three remain: faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is love.
