Shake my head every time I see it.....

oh yeah, the tune you can't get out of your head for the "cool guy" with ED!!! Come on.. like we ladies are sitting here all bummed because he won't be chasing us constantly!!!!
But DH and i LOVE the one where the 2 guys start out on a trip with a "Learn Spanish tape" and by the time they stop for gas they get out of the car bickering to each other in Spanish!!! LOL I think it an ad for a "high MPG car"...

Isn't toilet humor a 3rd grade boy thing?

Ref the Luv's diaper commercial: is the one you're talking about where the cartoonish babies fill up their diapers and try to ge a "10" rating? That's the worst commercial. They need to get a new advertising agency.

What's with all the commercials with food slapping the people? The really gross one is an older woman eating a corn dog and it's slapping her face!!

I'm really sick of the viagra and all commercials of that ilk. The guys in the commercials don't look to me like they should have too much trouble in that department. Usually they appear to be maybe, early forties, and their wives are smokin' hot. Be realistic. Put an older, over weight, out of shape guy, and his equally aged, has lived in her body, popped out a couple puppies, wife on there.

I'm not saying younger men couldn't have a problem, all I'm saying is be honest about the target audience and quit making perfectly healthy men, both younger and older, think something is wrong because they don't feel like chasing their wife around the house 5 days a week any more.

Pretty much like having twenty year olds try to sell wrinkle cream?

Or my twin sister and I used to get; "What day were you born?" then ask the other one, "what day were you born?". I know they were doing it to be funny or annoying, but I'm sure there are some that WERE born on different days.

My sister V and I have a game we play when we're bored. One of us reads a part of some advertising and then see if the other can guess what is being advertised. "A breath of Heaven" some time ago I thought might be a can of deodorizing spray with apple or cinnamon. Nope, it was for a dress made of some light fabric that showed every thing you wore under it!!

I still remember that white clad, white horse riding man who swept into a house and cleaned it instantly..sure wish he did house calls!!

i hate that runs in our area, on HRT..
anyone that makes a woman look stupid..rememeber the lady that talked to the tidy bowl man , in her toilet.. :roll:

I really hate the insurance commercial where the mom and dad made sushi out of the daughter's goldfish. That's just mean.
