Default Stupid Commercials

I know we have had these threads before but i had to get this off my chest because its so dumb.

Ok that Commercial selling seasoning with that old Greek guy telling the young kid he should learn how to cook beacuse girls like that, the kid then asks the old man if "thats why grandma married you?" and the old man says "nope" and looks at the kid with a raised eyebrow.....a pause...and the kids like "wowww.." OK WTF??

What is the old man immplieing, i dont want to get crude, but it had to be something sexual, is the "grandpa" telling his "grandson" he is well hung?? Or is he telling the grandson that he is good in the sack??

This kid in the commercial is like 14-15, and he thinks this is really cool once he understands what the Grandpa means........how friggen inapropriate is this??

Its been on for ever to, always bugged the HELL out of me, please ......someone who has seen this commercial........tell me, am i crazy or is this commercial perverted?

I heard that Canadian Tire dropped 'Canadian Tire Family', which I never did mind anyway.

I hate those Spence Diamond's radio commercials with that lispy annoying guy.

I can't believe Panago has a new commercial and they are using the SAME GUY!

I have to switch the channel anytime Howie Mandel and those BP ads come on. They drive me friggin' postal.

Most Tim Horton's ads are pretty lame too.

What about that furniture guy up there, Garrett? Some weird furniture store name. The guy looks like he should be the bassist for the Kentucky Headhunters.

Idomo? Something. Anyway, the commercial almost comes off as a spoof from SCTV...like Crazy Hy's or something.

Pretty annoying.
