Am I the only one who is embarrassed by these commercials?

Is that the one where the guy goes "I don't really care if I'm . . . larger" and his girlfriend sort of smirks?

Then, yes. I hate those ads, and I'm embarrassed for civilized society.

Then I thank god that I record almost everything I watch these days so I can FF thru that crap.

I started whistling the Enzyte theme song the other day in line at Wal-Mart. I got some really dirty looks over that incident.

Extendz
The Chubby Santa one... forget the name of the product...Enzite or somthing like that
Trojan finger vibrator for women (commercial with the old lady and the 2 young ones)
Viagra, Cialis, etc.

HATE them all! They are all so cheezy. I am glad that I dont have any children to have to explain that garbage to them.

BTW, Tonight I just saw the creepy gray haired goulish-grinning Extendze commercial guy ("I really dont care if im larger...but performing better..!!) in a new commercial for a Home Security system. He plays the operator for the system calling the homes that have been broken in to warning the intruders "stay out!!!" lol.

First he was doing commercials about trying to get in...now he is doing them for a different product about keeping them out. That guy is creepy.

Just got done watching the WEC title fight Brown vs. Faber II. That commercial was on every break. One word, sad.

Big kudos to Faber for going 4+ with a disabled right hand. Both guys are warriors.

Ya but does it work? Does that special part of a man's body get bigger? I like that type of advertizing, the lady doing cartwheels down the street cause her old man tried Viagra - that's humor and it is sorta pay back for all those years of tampon and FDS, light days comercials

you gotta talk to them some time about it. The commercials just provide an opportunity to broach the subject.

I only watch Deadliest Catch, and the show How Its Made with my 5 year old about once a week. Otherwise I find TV pretty boring.

TV? What's TV?

Seriously. We dumped our television service several months ago and haven't looked back. It's pure garbage these days. The programming completely sucks and is obviously tailored for morons. I might catch one or two things a week (usually a baseball game or something like that) and even those are getting nearly insufferable with all the stupid commercials and self-promotional crap.

It really is a medium whose best days are behind it. When our TV set finally croaks I dunno if I'll even bother replacing it.
