All of those anti-smoking commercials. The ones with dubstep and poo poo for the kids, and the gross-out ones with people pulling out their teeth or talking through a hole in their throat or whatever. Just obnoxious.

Do radio commercials count? Because then it's the Mountain Dew radio commercial about an idiot asshols who turns off a soccer game while people are watching it. It's incredibly painfully stupid.

i don't remember exactly what the commercial was for, but there was some diet/supplement pill commercial where they did a close zoom on one of the pills and had little labels pointing to arbitrary granules boasting VITAMIN C! NIACIN! IRON! etc. and there was an incredulous lady they interviewed that said "they're giving it away for free?! it must be good!!"

this commercial was really long and they'd play it every single break during "dance 360", an amateur dance competition hosted by kell mitchell that started with him walking on set and spinning some rims that were just hanging on a wall while the ambiguously ethnic DJ k-sly laid down some phat beats

edit oh here's three seconds of really awful quality video the product was "focus factor" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Qv6d8hx1rk

They've done studies on this jingle to try and find out just why it's so irritating yet sticks in your mind. And yes, the creator has gone into hiding over death threats.

all commercials are invasive and weird

A few years ago I decided to get rid of cable and go Netflix/Amazon mostly because I was so tired of sitting through ads and having to mute the worst ones.

What finally pushed me over the edge was Geico and their constant unfunny spots, especially the pig in the car going

This is kind of like,

"REMEMBER, IDIOTS, IF YOU TAKE THIS PILL AND LOSE TO MUCH WEIGHT REDUCE YOUR INTAKE TO 1 MORON PILL PER DAY!"

Over and over, all day long, every single day on the radio.

I hate them and humanity and myself and I hope we all die.

There was a GHOST here.
It's gone now.
There was some yogurt commercial around 10 years ago with a hot blonde stopping in a grocery store to loudly gurgle down yogurt like she was vacuuming jizz from a cock and she looks around with a "Tee-hee, I swallowed!" grin and loving hell, I hate that woman a decade later.

It was like watching someone thinking it's foreplay to come barreling at you with a mouth full of noodles, goddamn.

...but then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you!
Grimey Drawer
Bob Rohrman is a dude around the Chicagoland area with a few car dealerships and he keeps getting older and older and keeps insisting on appearing in the TV and radio commercials and I've been seeing them for as long as I can remember all my life and this man, this Bob Rohrman has aged before my eyes over the years

Not exactly irritating but I don't like being reminded of my own mortality and the fragility of the human life in general a bunch of times while I'm watching the morning news trying to wake up


"Bob RRROOOAAARRRman here to remind you that the human life is but a blink of an eye in relative terms and it will be over before you know it! THIS IS THE BURDEN WE ALL MUST BEAR AS LOWLY IMPERMANENT CREATURES SO WHY NOT GET YOURSELF INTO A NEW FORD OR LINCOLN TODAY!!!"

They have to give money to a third party that produces the ads. Any horribleness is their fault but teen smoking is way down so whatever.

Spotify used to run a ton of American family life insurance or whatever ads that opened with "what does the American dream look like!?" By a guy who sounded stoned or way too excited about it and gently caress they fished 5 bucks outta my pocket so fast to make those stop.
