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.

Evans, Marv 12-18-2013 08:48 PM

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!

slodave 12-18-2013 09:50 PM

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

Outback Porsche 12-19-2013 06:15 AM

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. :(

M.D. Holloway 12-19-2013 06:18 AM

CBT dude...depends

gacook 12-19-2013 06:20 AM

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.

Z-man 12-19-2013 11:32 AM

I like turtles.

Maybe we are the only ones who know?

Otherwise, this should be a two post thread with a couple of +1's.

When working on my car, crouched down and I snake my hand way back in there to reach that far-away nut with the wrench and then.....damn, I have to go to the bathroom again!

Never fails when one is old.

Jim Richards 12-19-2013 11:44 AM

that Depends. ;)

recycled sixtie 12-19-2013 12:14 PM

I don't like it when my doc tells me to cut down on my drinking when I tell him I have one small glass of wine a day. I have upped it so I can prove him wrong on my next medical! I am still here LOL:):)

dan88911 12-19-2013 01:24 PM

Yeah, and when my fat chain smoking doc tells me I need to lose weight and stop smoking.

crownarch 12-19-2013 02:02 PM

Dang those doctors as I know what you mean. I banged my finger real hard the other day, went to see the doc and he told me to soak it in cider. That night I grabbed my wife and tried to soak it like the doc said and my face still hurts from getting slapped so hard!

DanielDudley 12-20-2013 12:43 AM

I prefer Dickin's Cider.

yetibone 12-20-2013 02:11 AM

Me too. It's so nice to have a hot Dickin's Cider.
