Which is your least favorite comercial? I hate the period ones.

1. standard.
a. "I have [insert problem]"
b. I hade [insert problem] too, until I tried [insert product].
a. what's [insert product]?
b. it's great. it [insert description].
a. wow, that is great.
b. not only that, but it [insert description]
a. wow. I need to try [insert product]
a+b. thanks, [insert product.

2. Those female bodily-function problem comercials that tend to air when you're trying to eat lunch or dinner. Yes, I heard that femenine itching and periods aren't pleasant. No, I don't want to learn more about them when I am eating.

3. The stupid ones. You know, with the people falling in love with cars.

4. PSP racism. Those comercials are so racist.

5. infomercials that air when you want to watch your favorite shows. I wanted to watch 25 minutes of my show, not 5 minutes and 20 minutes of infomercials.

6. other. please specify.

Should have picked other for that "I'm an alcoholic, so I use these hang-over pills for the nights in which I get drunk." comercial.

Ever see those commercials that try to trick you into thinking that they're a talk show? It's not limited to infomercials. I've seen short commercials that open with a talk show host type saying "Weclome back, we're talking today about (insert stupid problem)" and then they try to sell you a solution to the stupid problem. It's like they think we're stupid enough to be fooled into thinking that the product is being touted on an impartial and fair television show.

The commercials where companies try to get you to order jokes or something for your cellphone.

"You'll be so funny. Everyone will love your jokes. People will think you're a comic genius. Hahaha, You'll make friends. You'll be so funny...*wash, rinse, repeat*"

Drive me absolutely nuts.... Reminds me of Brave New World.
