Those terrible Calgary Hitmen 960 commercials where they basically just rattle off as many hockey slang words as they can possibly jam into a 30 second commercial. "Celly! Top cheese! Bar down!". I actually cringe listening to it cuz it's so embarrassingly awkward.

It reminds me of some 90s show where some middle aged white guy tries to talk street in a cringe-worthy attempt to sound cool. "Sup homies! Grab your best shorty & hit up my crib and chill, we'll raise the roof! Bling-bling beeotch! Bring that cheddar, gonna be the bomb! Peace, dawg". So painful

First time I saw that one, my buddy and I simultaneously looked at each other in disbelief and anger at the sheer lameness of it.
It sound like those hockey idiots in Letterkenny. Maybe it's supposed to. "Sickest flow bro"

I'm ready to put my fist through the TV when those stupid Nike commercials come on during WJC - that Siri voice is so grating and the commercial seems to go on and on and on and on....

^ who wrote/directed/conceived that ####?

The first time I saw that I said to a friend, "That's enough, right there, to boycott NIKE for the rest of my life!"

He said, "yeah"

So I got that going for me, which is nice.

Shane Homes, what a stupid commercial. Lets add a room...lets make the garage wider...lets make the whole house wider... Nevermind what that would cost and the lot size and lot coverage rules. Dummies.

Honda appears to have a new commercial for the Civic that is easily the worst commercial I have ever seen. It has a couple guys sitting in the back seat of a new Civic making akward noises because it has heated seats.

The new Coke commercial is rage-inducing. I think I'd rather have the ######ing polar bears back...

The milk commercial where I believe they are doing the mannequin challenge. Everything about that commercial is terrible from their faces to the music. Just brutal

And the biggest issue with this one (and other parodies) is that the meme fails if it's not playing the original song.

There's some insurance commercial with guy in a robotic dolphin, going along with real dolphins in the ocean. And it's played totally seriously. It's terrible.

Merry Christmas!

In other news, I'd love to see the insurance claim if he were to hit one.

Oh man those dolphin insurance commercials are painful. Thankfully they've started airing a slightly less awful one.

Is it Michael j Fox doing the voiceover for those? Kinda sounds like him.
