There are sooo many!! But right now there's a med ad that talks about the risk of having a risk of risking....you get the picture. Don't remember the med name but they are yammering about PAD? and couldn't cram the word 'risk' in there again if they tried.
Also anything with with the idiot we used to refer to as 'The Oxy Moron' (in ads for Oxy-Clean, a detergent, I think) He is in a bunch now, mostly for useless crap. I don't know why since it seems to be a given that know one will ever hear the ad, as everyone I know scrambles for the mute button as soon as they hear him start to yell.
As for gross, this is meant to be cute I think, but those damn little cartoon bears that sit behind trees and take a shit (a 'what do bears do in the woods' reference I suppose - gee how precious ) then go dancing around in praisie of the advertisers TP and demonstrating how the wrong brand can stick to your ass!! Maybe it's me, but I find the whole series just off! (there are far worse i know...)
Any others? Some might love the very thing another hates, but this is just to express your own veiw. " De gustibus non disputandum est" as they say!!!! (You cannot dispute someone elses taste)
Note the skin shavings (!!!) being dumped out in the upper right-hand corner.
Also, the ASPCA commercial with Sarah McLachlan chokes me up every time. Since they show it nonfuckingstop, I've resorted to changing the channel until it's over. A bold move, I know.

I agree with this one and its grossness. I also love how it tells you you'll never go for a pedicure again.....like this thing is a replacement for spa bubbles, massage and those gorgeous Vietnamese ladies.
Back-to-back commercials for vagisil and tampons. Frickin gross!
In NYC, they play the commercials with the guy that has a voice box from smoking and shows all the things that he could do. Also another anti-smoking ad about icky lungs and amputating a guys foot because of smoking.

Truckloads of disgust for this one too!! Especially since someone showed me a clip (I'm sure it's on You Tube somewhere) of a take-off from this ad; people are eating salad or pasta or something, the waiter asks if they would like parmesan.... I shall say no more!
Almost any of the "woody-in-a-bottle" ads; but especially that one which apparently has the side effect of making you want to drag seperate (seperate, mind you) matching claw-footed tubs out into the wilderness and bathe. What the hell is that about?!?!

That goddamn deodorant commercial where shes like "You now have 5 reasons to raise your arms!" and she goes around being a fuck-wad moron. It's just damn annoying how stupid she's being, I always rush to find the remote to change the channel or hit mute when it comes on.
Also, all those commercials about medications and possibly side effects and "If you or a family member has suffered from..." just to sue the pharmaceutical company. Those make me feel a bit sick even, because there constantly on and to me it just reminds me of how sue-happy people are.
pretty much any ad put out by McDonald's. i mean, i don't dislike McD's any more than i hate any other fast food restaurant. but their ads never fail to fill me with rage, for some reason. i don't even know how to put into words why i hate their ads so much. something about how false they seem, i think.

I hate that one! If I were that cabby (the one she's like "oh, never mind, I just wanted to flash my pits" to) I would have punched her. Right in her damn armpits.
I don't know if it's local to me or not, but the one I'm hating on the most is the opera-singing J.G. Wentworth commercial.

I hate any J. G. Wentworth commercial.
And now I have that bloody quote in my head! "It's your money, use it when you need it!"
Haven't heard the opera one, thank heavens. I think I'd curl into a ball and weep.

Sarah you are SO right on the 'armpit' commercial!! I want to see one where the cabby just steps on the gas at the end of the ad!! There, dammit, de-oderize that!!
And on the Wentworth ones, I'm not sure if they're local there or not, Morgan, I haven't seen it yet, but if it's anything like the ones I completely loathe, that keep playing in SF, where all these people keep screaming the slogan out of windows and crap, --I can only imagine the horror!!

"On vehix.com you can literally take a test drive...."
No you fucking can't you stupid twat! You can virtually take one!
Basically, the rampant and incorrect over-usage of the word "literally" drives me bonkers. It seems people use it to add emphasis and it drives me crazy.
