I have to admit the Big Red Sports commericals on the radio are just plain stupid. The idea is old they need to try something new.

I want to strangle the little dillhole in the Mickey D's ad who wakes up his Significant Other to annouce that he's "a Dollar Menu guy." This runs about every 20 minutes during Hornets games.

Great minds think alike! Before reading any of the posts, I wrote down:

1. ClearSight Lasik (The next 10 callers will get blah, blah)

2. 1-800-NO-AGENT (How many times can she say it in one spot?)

3. Big Red Sports Cars (I HATE that I-35....NORMAN!!!)

The Alltel spot where the guy does the worm. Between the lack of advertising talent and Barry Switzers endorcement, I will not do business with them.

It amazes me some ding dong with a college degree gets paid to show stupidity and a guy with talent is not even able to find a job in that field.

1. 1-800-No-AGENT
2. The beer commercial where they have the animated guys saying "Brilliant." One of the guys keeps "inventing" something and the other guy keeps saying "brilliant."
3. All of Alltel commercials are stupid.

It might just be an ad and not classified as a commercial, but as I look for a good deal on a new computer, and I see the ads showing a CPU, KB, Mouse, and flat-panel LCD monitor and the package having a price that I think is priced right, then there is the very fine print maybe two clicks over if I am looking on the net that "monitor not included" or some such.

I just mark that establishment off my list of places where I might make my purchase. LOL That leaves Wal Mart and Sams on my list.

Definitely the 1-800-NO-AGENT Commercial. And the Dr. Pepper commercial that has the song, " I would do anything for love", I find it so stupid and not a bit humorous.

"Have a happy period." I have yet to meet a woman who had a happy period.

Except for the fact I like looking at Paulette Kingston, I agree about 800 no agent.

OK, This is backwards---I liked it instead of one I hate. I think it is still enough on topic to qualify here, but if not, I dunno---delete it, I guess.

There was this guy on the bus, and as the camera backed off, there were women very close to him apparently (I think that was what the commercial wanted the viewers to surmise.) taking in the scents of his freshly washed shirt---in Gain Detergent---as the camera backed away, the bus had much empty space and all the ladies were huddled around the guy with their faces (noses too LOL) right up against the guy's shirt.

LOL The moral: Guys, wash your clothes with Gain Detergent. LOL

Hee hee. I like that one too, Okiman.

Made me think of another line of commercials that I hate and fortunately haven't seen them recently. Some men's fragrance...I think it's called Bod(?). Those were some of the most annoy commercials ever.

Someone mentioned they do not like Sonic Commercials recently---I think I am right here.

I love the Sonic commercials where the two guys are in the car, and now the ones where the guy and lady are in the car.

OK---Again I am backwards loving them instead of hating them, but I am convinced I am on topic just in a round-about way.

OH MY Gawd! I thought that I was the only one that detested that "house buying" commercial. Her voice might not be so "fingernails on the blackboard" bad if she would tone it down a notch, but the phony enthusiasm is what does it. I couldn't agree more, she is the worst...oh, maybe not, the big guy that travels the beltway doing commercials for anyone and everyone, you know the one who always swings his arm around, "12, 12, loop 12" and now he is announcing for a furniture store.

The sleeze ball who acts like a 70's disco lounge lizard spouting "no. You're cheesy" for Burger King.

I just ate my breakfast... Excuse me, I have to barf now after thinking about this lack of advertising talent.

Ditto. The sandwich they are advertising wasn't even all that cheesy. I was expecting 8 slices of cheese. "Would you like some beef with your cheese burger sir?"

I also can't stand locals who do their own commercials and think they are an actor. Pay a professional!!! I know Mathis Brothers can afford it, and how about good old boy Drew Braum from Braums. MMM doesn't that look good? No it looks plastic and cheesy. The car dealers of course, Big Red Sports and Imports and the Norman Nobody/Edmond Somebody car guy I would never by a car from any of them because of their annoying commercials

Norman Nobody makes me sick. I also don't care for the Sonic commercials. The two guys that do the commercials are ok sometime, but they don't have a lick of talent. The man and the lady are just plain stupid. I would love to see her reach over and back hand that guy when he smarts off to her. He looks like he came from geek city.

I wish they would go back to the commercials when they had the pretty young ladies that were actually advertising the product without trying to be funny.

Any advertising that says they are x number of minutes away. That is misleading. You can not predict traffic, weather or other conditions. Give me distance in what distance means... Miles. Minutes is a time factor not a distance.

I guarantee, if it takes me longer to get somewhere than they claim, then I will show them my cars license plate and enforce it. "illsuu."

I actually saw 2 Sonic commercials that I like! It's the man & woman advertising the Sweetheart Brownie Blast. The one I like best was the brownie "bits" versus "bites"; it made me roll!

What's the deal with the guy from Big Red Sports in Norman? Does he really not realize how oogey his hair is?? Makes him seem greasy, seedy, and untrustworthy, IMO. No way would I buy a car from him!!

You know, I may be the only person on the face of earth to dislike the main figure in an ongoing, multi series commercial that isn't a real person. I still can't understand how I could acquire a genuine dislike for a personage, not a person. This non-person to which I am referring is the Creepy, COX DIGITAL MAN, all dressed in blue, including blue shoes and acting so darned condecending...I dunno if it's his facial expressions or what, but there are a few of those commercials that are quite clever, but he just ruins them.

Joe Cooper Ford and their $10,000 low price guarantee commercial. That guarantee is the biggest load of crap. Gee lets think about this..... Should we discount the car a few hundred bucks or give away 10 grand.

And that folks is how I really feel.

I can't let this opportunity pass without mentioning just one more that I just knoooooooooooow that we all know and love. At first, I thought that they were sort of, well... sadistically funny, now they sicken me. Call it overexposure or just plain overdone, but....the CAPITAL ONE commercials. "What's in your wallet?" Jeesh!

Brown Furniture in Shawnee. Their spokesperson/owner(?) kills me. He seems so depressed. Recently there was one of their commercials where he mentions that they have some "exciting" items for sale. I've never heard the work "exciting" sound so sad. He reminds me of droopy dog. :D

Monk, you are so right! I remember that one. He does seem quite genuine, but methinks he would portray a mortician much better...maybe he could hire out to do a commercial for them and they could some and do his...couldn't be any worse.

Exactly, it reminds me of a commercial more for a funeral home than a furniture store.

I can just imagine it now: I walk in to the furniture store and I hear a creeking sound as the nice 'ole gentleman slowly approaches me (of course, he has a flower in his lapel) and proceeds to show me which couch would make a wonderful "final" resting place....YIKES!!!!!:sofa: :LolLolLol

I haven't lived in OKC for a few years, so I don't know if this commercial still airs, but does anyone remember...

"The price is right, noooooooooow at Oklahoma Discount Furniture!"

That used to annoy me so much. And they usually had 2 commercials back to back, which made it worse.

You know, you would think that they would do their homework before they spent all of that money annoying folks. Some of those commercials actually repulse you enough to make you go anywhere but there. I guess it costs a lot of money to make those commercials, and I guess they need to get their money's worth, but I just hate seeing the same ones over and over and over...you almost have them memorized by the time they quit showing them. I guess they can't all be Budweiser quality...LOL

Here is one out of the past. This guy (a guy women would drool over) is laying in bed. His line... "I didn't use my deoderant today and I may not tomorrow." Funny. I wonder why the guy is laying in bed alone? (Mitchum)

I also saw one in California once for a funeral home who had the slogan "dig a grave with Dave."

metro
02-27-2006, 02:49 PM
ahhh Mitchum deodorant. I think the bottle reads something like "works so good you can skip a day". I don't care how good any deodorant is, I hope no one skips a day of deodorant on purpose
