IT'S RESOLUTION TIME!!! - I hate this commercial - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

It really makes me never want to go to Subway ever again... and it's played so often.

CrusaderPi · 02-09-2008, 05:58 PM

Seconded. It's rap aimed at middle aged white people scrambled with circa 94 rhymes. Nauseatingly bad.

and it's almost the middle of February.

The mute button on my remote is getting a lot of use these days. Heads should roll over this disaster.

I'm still suffering from PTSD...

"why does my mommy want another onion..."

I was just complaining about this earlier tonight. Stupid commercial, and yeah, it's February already.

outside of the tiny goalie commercial every commercial played during games sucks it. I also hate all the telus commercials with the animals that are played ad nauseum (pun sort of intended), especially during sportsnet broadcasts.

I didn't even realize the "resolution" part was supposed to be about making a "New Year's Resolution."

I thought Subway's new marketing plan was to blast hi-res vegetables at us. Seriously. What a stupid commercial.

Makes be chuckle when I think of the studio guy rapping about condiments and bread. You just know he had dreams of being a rap star, all tough with stred cred, all shot to hell after he takes the cash to sing about sandwiches.

I'm pretty sure it's actually Tracy Morgan formerly of SNL singing as Brian Fellows

SarichFan needs a red square for starting this thread. That commercial is easily one of the biggest annoyances in my day-to-day life. I am pondering a Subway boycott until it is gone.

Speaking of terrible advertising, I hate that Honda ad -where the husband has narrowed his vehicle search down to the Ridgeline or the Accord - heard so bloody often on the FAN. I want to put my foot through my speakers when I hear the wife's sarcastic: "What, so you can bring hay bales home for the gerbils?"

Antithesis · 02-09-2008, 08:49 PM

Hey, you can't just go around doing deals.

The Yen Man · 02-09-2008, 08:52 PM

The one I hate right now on the Fan is that Roger's commerical, with the woman goes "nice try, but trying to sound like static to make it seem like you got cut off....not going to work". The girl is trying way to hard to sound sexy, which doesn't even make sense given the context of the commercial.

Yeah, that's the one. I'm not sure why it irritates me so much. Maybe it has something to do with the fact my wife went out car shopping years ago without me and came home with a minivan..........a '95 Ford Windstar, to boot.

Eastern Girl · 02-09-2008, 08:56 PM

Am I the only one that hasn't seen the commercial in question?

The one I really hate is that ad for insurance I believe, the one at the hockey rink where the girl is questioning the guy about insurance and then she asks if he can make her dad a better hockey player. Drives me crazy. Especially the "Even my shoes, I love my shoes," line, I hate it. Anyone know the one I am talking about?

THAT...........I can't do!

Antithesis · 02-09-2008, 09:00 PM

I can't believe you haven't seen the Subway commerical, EG ... it's only on out here every single commercial break of every show I watch!

BlackArcher101 · 02-09-2008, 09:07 PM

I too haven't seen the subway ad in question.

The Motorola Razr2 commercial however... that's a different story. I see it probably 3 times in a 30min episode. Not that I'm complaining though, I could watch it over and over again.
