Any Viagra ad. The one with the guy shopping with his wife.. is the one I really find annoying

the 'Sunny-D' 'I'm not touching you' thing really gets on my nerves. It was cute at first, now its just annoying.

The ones for those gel pads. You know, those "gellin'" ones. Urgh. Makes me glad I almost never listen to the radio or watch TV anymore.

Any commercial when they have stuff going on and then the thing they're asvertising has nothing to with it. It makes me feel like I'm stupid b/c I don't get it.

The Burger King "Wake up with the king" commercials. They freak me out.

As for annoying I'd have to go with the Gary Coleman Cash Call commercial.

But the scariest commercial I've ever seen is the car commercial with the boy who looks at the camera and whispers "zoom, zoom". He scares the sh*t outta me! I've had nightmares about that kid!!!

Ha! That kid was scary. He looked like he belonged in some cheap British horror movie.

A local commercial with a little girl saying ( over & over again - ad nausem ) " 1 800 Approve "

The deBeers commercial where the couple is in the la Plaza de San Marco and he starts yelling "I LOVE THIS WOMAN! I LOVE HER! I LOVE HER!" and OF COURSE the woman is all emabarased and hides her face. Then she quickly changes her tune when the guy pulls the $20,000 ring out. bitch.

I think it demonstrates that a woman will be emabrased, but once the bling bling comes out, that's what really matters.

I love that commercial, too.

I dont see it as her loving him suddenly for the ring, but loving him because of the sentiment attached to it.

We have a local one here for Toyota of Stamford with people singing the Toyota jingle off-key that's REALLY annoying. I actually have to change the channel or hit mute when it comes on.

Oh my god, I would completely cry if a man did that for me, ring or not. I wouldn't be embarrassed at all.

About the Midol commercial: Shouldn't that ad have been used for tampons? I mean, why else would she be wearing a bikini during her period?
As for the diamond ad: I'd be embarassed if my boyfriend started shouting "I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!" in public! I hate big showy stuff like that.
