I don't like it when...
 
TV commercials use good music to hawk their stuff.

The latest is the lottery 'Scratchers" using the classical piece, 'Clair de Lune'.

What don't you like?

Brussels sprouts.

I never hear anything during commercials since I mute the sound and actively try to do something else.

Unless they are fried with some real good balsamic.

And bacon.

Bacon!

I'll take the bacon. You can keep the sprouts. :)

Drivers who whip out in front of me like the house is on fire and proceed to drive well under the speed limit.
Folks at work who take the last cup of coffee and don't make a fresh pot.

What's a TV commercial?

recycled sixtie 12-19-2013 06:05 AM

The use of foreign accents to promote products. I won't specify which coz I will get whole countries mad at me! On the flip side I really enjoy the old Scottish man with white beard who wants to download from his friend's app into his pigeon.
PLAY YOUR GAME...:) That makes me smile and laugh.

Don Ro 12-19-2013 06:13 AM

The only commercial I've paid attention to in years is the Gieco "hump day" Camel.
"Mike, Mike, Mike..." :D

A kick in the nuts.

Actually, anything that involves hurting your nuts. Could be as simple as sitting on them or getting them caught in your zipper. :(

CBT dude...depends

My wife is a devout Apple hater. She's quite upset with their new commercial becasue it has a really cool song. She also broke her personal boycott war against their products and bought her son an iPod for Christmas. She's having a tough time this holiday season...lol.

G/f loves that song...downloaded it to her iPod (or whatever that gizmo is called).

I'm with Dave, I hate Brussels sprouts, but I love that hump day commercial. I wish they'd only play it on Wednesday though.

I don't like it when my doc tells me I need to lose weight. Even if he's right.
