TV ads you hate?????

151949 — Fri, 03 Mar 2017 02:27:43 GMT

I just watched one I always think is just so lame - 2 little kids are brushing their teeth at the same sink which is all piled with junk all over it - then the parents go to lowes and buy a vanity twice the size with 2 sinks (I guess the size of the BR miraculously expanded) and now everything is all beautiful etc etc.

When I was growing up there were 8 of us with one bathroom and just an extra toilet in the cellar. (we'd wash our hands in the laundry tub).Never til I die will I understand why a couple has to have two bathrooms and 3 sinks or why those kids must brush their teeth at the exact same time instead of parents teaching them to share.

I have to change the channel always when the one w/ shelter animals comes on & asking for donations to save their lives. The sad music plays in the background...usually "In The Arms Of An Angel". The camera looks deeply into the pitiful animals' eyes. It takes 2 seconds for the tears to start streaming down my cheeks. No matter how many times it comes on, I still can't handle it.

Ads for prescription drugs. The long list of side effects gives me pause.

I never see commercials.

I am commercial-free.

I only watch Netflix, Hulu, other channels that have no commercials.

Can you tell - I hate commercials.

I can't say I hate this ad, but it "freaks" me out each time I see it ~

Haribo Gummy Bears ~ There are a group of executives sitting around a conference table. They are describing the sweet treat but their voices are childlike not adult sounding ~ and they use a child's vocabulary and actions.

Absolute channel changers for me are the MyPillow and Haribo Gummy Bear ads. Can't change the channel fast enough!

Can't watch the animal abused ones, I have to turn the channel.

I don't like the one about runny noses.

I'm very tired of Marie's losing 50 lbs. If you added up all the "50 lbs" she's lost, it would probably be more than the weight of the earth!

The insurance "check" one where women's and little girl's voices become baritone.

I bet Marie did more than just eating the products. Have you seen the sizes of some of those packages? She looks fantastic but Oprah who says she lost 40 lbs, not so much.

@cotton4me I forgot to include that in my list! That is the most annoying, unimaginative commercials every "created". And now it's on the radio also!

Anything that is to increase a man's "ability" to be more romantic, so to speak.

I can't stand the Panera - clean eating we make everything clean commercial among others.
