I hate any commercial that shows people chomping food, crunching, gulping etc. The Carls Jr. commercials used to do that with the "If it doesn't get all over the place it doesn't belong in your face." They are just gross and mouth noises in regards to eating or drinking are like nails ona chalk board to me. The latest one I hate is the kit kat commercial where they are all breaking them and crunching them. It makes me want to stick ice pick in my ears. I like Flo, too! HATE the Axe commercials. Hate the Swiffer commercials.

My family loves the Travelers Insurance commercial with the worried doggie obsessing over her bone while someone sings "Trouble...". The way she (I think she's a she but am not sure) tosses and turns and puts her paw to her face cracks me up. Great dog acting! Link to YouTube - it's a longer version than the one I've seen on tv.

I like the Pine Sol commercial where the woman is lounging in a romantic setting of a bedroom, with lights dimmed and rose petals covering the bed, while a very handsome man is mopping the floor. Her idea of a great fantasy. LOL

Babyruth, I agree about that Pine Sol commerial. Esp. since she has been in them longer than I can remember. She deserves it.

That Old Spice commercial is funny! I remember my grandpa getting Old Spice & sometimes Brut (who thought up that name?!) for presents. I liked how they smelled. No wait, it was my dad who'd get Brut. But he never wore it, that I recall.

Calamity, my dad used Aqua Velva. One old boyfriend, about 26 years ago, whom I now refer to as my '5-year mistake'... well when he heard that I liked the scent cuz it reminded me of my late father, he switched to it, to manipulate my heart, and sad to say, it worked. Oh well. Older, and wiser now!

I used to wear my boyfriend's Brut. Back in the early 80's. Mid-80's I'd steal my then-boyfriend's Lagerfeld! Figured they'd hug me and it'd rub off on me so may as well start with it. Saw that Old Spice commercial last night and cracked up at it...

Now I'm going to have to look for Brut at the drug store and take a discrete sniff when no one's looking. I remember once standing in the aisle blissfully inhaling the fruity scent from a bottle of Salon Selectives until I realized an older man was staring at me. Oh and I found out the Travelers Insurance dog is actually a male (sorry, doggy!) named Chopper (reminds me of Stand by Me) who was rescued from a shelter. Travelers CEO was quoted: "That dog is smarter than a lot of people I know.". Mameblanche: Aww, what a dirty, manipulative trick! At least he's in your past now.

I like that doggy commercial, too. The talking baby ones annoy me.

There's a Delta faucet commercial advertising its new "touch" technology. It starts off showing all these gooey sticky gross hands. Yuck! I hate that commercial cause I hate having my hands all gooey and sticky! Another commercial, can't even remember what its for. A guy is about ready to have an operation, and then he's in a stadium and an announcer is introducing his surgical team. Here come all these people (who are apparently gowned up and sterilized), and one of them is doing handsprings towards the table. All I can think of is how her hands are now not very sterile after touching the ground to do her handsprings!!

I can't stand the Dixie cup "Good Morning" ad where people shake their shoulders at each other while drinking coffee!

I woke my husband up this morning to make him watch the Old Spice commercial ("I'm on a horse") while I was playing back Thursday's episode of Lost. He laughed, then went back to sleep. It really is pretty funny.

Dogdoc, I dislike that commercial also. Only for the reason I will be sitting at work and I have that stupid "Good Morning" song ringing through my head. The other song that will ring through my head is the theme from "The Nanny". The only thing that makes it patable is that I think the Manhatten Transfer was a great group. I just wish I had a better song by them to play in my brain. Maybe I should stop watching Nick at Nite.

There is a commercial I just love. I howl everytime it's on. It's for USPS and the mailman comes up to find a family standing at the door. They tell him they're trying to figure out how to send this freaky clown toy back that they had ordered and he explains how easy it is to return it using the postal service. At the end, he says he doesn't see whats so bad about the clown (which til that point had been standing across the room.) They all look and the clown has moved to stand right behind them! I roll everytime that commercial comes on and I'm terrified of clowns, lol.

I love that commercial also. It is so funny. When DH and I got married I had a collection of clowns and then I saw "IT". I was freaked out and packed them all up and put them in the garage. Fast forward a couple of years and I come home from work and there they all are in the livingroom. I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

It's one of the funniest commercials on right now. LOL Maplsyrp, I think the start of my clown fear was Poltergiest, but IT solidified it! Coming home to find a bunch of clowns would have freaked me out, lol.

Dogdoc, me too! I love the new Denny's commercial where the guy talks about capacinos, frappacinos and then says I don't know who this Chino's guy is but froth and foam is not coffee, or something like that. And then says, but I do like his pants, LMAO. I crack up everytime that one comes on.
