make them go away please.

the new 'eco-friendly' ad w/the bikes is supremely annoying


on a related note, the new Geico ads w/the go-kart kid are awesome ("I'll put him into a wall!")

The one where the guy was whining about having a crappy job - HOW does having his identity stolen or whatever affect his ability to get a job?? It's always bothered me. mad

I'm so glad I'm no longer subjected to tv.

Oddly enough I miss them, but that's because they were on a few TV channels my local cable provider doesn't have, all of which were from the U.S., of course. On the other hand I no longer have to watch HeadOn commercials, or that other one about taking the IRS on your own or something.

Come to think about it, all is well.

i constantly get two of their songs stuck in my head. The one about the guy working in a lobster shack and the guy who married his dream girl. Oh and kleio, the identity theft thing comes into play because so many companies run credit checks when hiring.

A lot of employers rate your application based on credit. Those with extensive background checks and the like won't employ someone who's debt is 1.5 times or more their income.

That guy isn't actually doing the singing in those ads. Different vocalist, he's just pulling a mili vanilli.

I hate him so much. The ad with him whining about his job always pisses me off, and the one about his dream girl pisses me off even more. So she's his dream girl, but he would have dumped her like a sack of hot potatoes if he had known she had bad credit? Way to go, dude.

Plus he's always blaming his problems on something else. Slacker.

Also, he's ugly.

In short, even though I know he's a paid actor and not actually the character he's playing, those commercials throw me into a rage for some reason and I'd probably have the urge to punch the guy if I ever met him.
