Commercials I Hate

[Iris]

Anything with some overly cute kid making some sickening expression to capitalize on their "cuteness" which is just usually nauseating anyway. Don't get me wrong, I love kids, just not those kids. Think the Pepsi brat.

The latest one that gets under my skin, and I don't know if this is in every area or just here, is one for some financial planning firm hawking savings bonds. It starts out with some freckle covered girl with satanically curly hair making a rabbit face. Their slogan is "Investments Mature" or something like that.

There's another one too, and I know this one is regional. It's for a hospital and it features the most fake "family" you've ever seen in your life. The girl (again) has curly hair and freckles and she comes down in the morning wanting something to eat. The dad says "You're not hungry again are you?" Mom: "Oh, not another growth spurt". Who the hell says this stuff anyway? But wait, it gets worse. The kid's next suggestion: "Let's have a family hug!!!" and then she calls her brother from upstairs. Jesus!!!! It's sickening.

Next person please?

I second that Xander. Isn't that guy just the scariest fucker you've ever seen in your life? His smile is like "buy shit at Menards or I'm coming to your house to kill you".

What commercials?

When do you have time to watch television when you're at Literotica all day long?!

I haven't owned a TV for about ten years and I couldn't be happier. And I don't listen to commercial radio any more than I have to, either. It is possible to be liberated from all that crap. You just need to make different choices.

And remember, both mediums exist only as vehicles for commericals. You may assume they're about delivering news or sports or drama. As the cigarette is a "nicotine delivery system," television and radio are "commercial delivery systems."

Isn't our free enterprise system wonderful?

I hate overly cute children, too. They should all be led into a forest and baked into gingerbread.

There are so many annoying commercials that it's hard to pick just one. I thank the inventors of the mute button every day, and go a little psychotic when I can't find the remote to use it.

I fell off my chair laughing when I read that

uhoh...

 

[CreamyLady]

I'll get you, my pretties, and your little dog, too!

Seriously, *bratcat*, it's only those nauseatingly cute children in commercials that are supposed to inspire an "Awwwww" moment and all too often inspire a purge moment instead.

Normal kids are okay; particularly if one can see the little pointed tail and cloven feet from time to time.

Didn't you ever have...

One of those kind of kids at your school who would get up and sing some kind of Judy Garland thing at some auditorium assembly? Hey X-man, I like the Flaming X...

I hate commericals at the movies...

 

[CreamyLady]

Absolutely, Siren.

The only good thing about the coming attractions is that one has extra time to finish buying the popcorn.

I used to love movie trailers. But what really sucks is going to some Disney movie with your kids and having them show R-rated trailers.

 

[*bratcat*]

what is worse...
