In contrast to our occasional favorite commercials threads....

What commercial out there, just gets under your skin?

For me, it is the new Dodge Ram commercial where the guy has a little buddy who keeps talking about his "Hemmy powered Dodge Ram."

I really want to reach through the screen and pop this guy one.
Just one.

They HEMI ones are getting old, although I just saw a new one yesterday. Guy pulls up next to a Dodge truck and says, "That thing a HEMI?" The guys says, "Yes, it is!" Light turns green and the guy who asked first tears away in his Ford...hehe...

Any Chevy truck commercial. They have b@stardized that Bob Segar song so bad, I hate anything by him now. General Motors is like a bad Top 40s station, they don't know when to stop playing something.

I don't like those new phone commercials where the guy is talking to his daughter in an airport, and then you realize he's talking to her on the phone. There's another with a husband waving flashcards at his wife while she's in a meeting. Very annoying.

The freakin' Nextel walkie-talkie commercials. There's one with a business meeting going on, a wedding, and Romeo and Juliet. HATE them.

The Orbit gum commercials are annoying as well.

Almost always car/truck commercials. I think we get the national ones PLUS some specially made for Texas, things like "Come into your Texas truck stop at your local ford truck dealer" They've ruined some great songs for me on those things.

One national one thats bad, I can't remember what car its for but in the middle it breaks into the Spongebob theme? Thats annoying.

They don't have Hardee's in this area any more (which is a pity 'cause their burgers ruled) - what's the commercial?

Oh, I like the ones where they ask Jared what to do, they are kind of fubby...

gretriever, I KNOW you jest when you speak of Hardee's as anything other than the toxic waste it is?!? Fortunately we don't have any here.

If someone can explain to me why we have Kmart commercials but there isn't a Kmart to be found in the state, I'd be interested in listening...
