Dad said I gotta get the good one!

Your Dad told me you're adopted and he doesn't love you. Take the salt and STFU.

Any and all Koodo commercials.

What the hell are they saying / yelling at the beginning / end of the ad, can anyone enlighten me?

Do you mean the slightly autotune-electronic sounding voice? I believe it is just saying "Koodo".

No that's not it, I guess it's at the start of the commercial.

"El Tabador."

That's the name of the Mexican wrestling dude. He was first brought in to explain how the Koodo "Tab" works differently than a regular contract.

What's with the Spence diamonds ads on Fan 960 with the guy who screams at the end. He sounds like Howard Dean.

What's with commercials where the guy pitching the wares to you is a complete moron? As if it's a good endorsement for the company when an idiot is the one telling you it's a good deal or is an employee. I'm thinking specifically about Fountain Tire commercials, but there are lots of other ones that GMGs because of this.

For the first time in over a year I heard FM radio commercials.

Good god those are terrible. And annoying.

I understand that many radio jingles are intentionally annoying, but who the hell thought it would be a good idea to include a squeaking clown nose as an instrument (or whatever the hell that is) into the Maclin Ford radio jingle?

The b**ch on the Ford Focus commercials who says she wont compromise and need all the new things that no one else has, to be connected to friends, reliability, etc. in her new car.

I just want to falcon punch her.

The thing I don't get with that salt commercial is those bags are 25 or 50 lbs apiece. (It's been a while, I can't remember their exact weight) That kid probably throws his back out carrying his bookbag - who the heck sends an 8 year old for softener salt? How is he going to get it home, his bike?

A couple of current hated commercials:
Tostidos commercial with the women gabbing about "something they haven't done in years" "WE SLEPT IN!" God, I just want to slap her.

And speaking of slapping people, the First Calgary commercials with the dancing folks, especially the one with the two geeky guys in top hats, who rip open their dress shirts to show the First Calgary t-shirts. I just want to give them wedgies.

The one problem with being on mat leave, I watch way too many commercials and there are a lot that annoy the crap out of me!

Not to defend the horrible commercial, but at the end, they show him wheeling the bag out of the store on his skateboard.

Aaah, okay, I don't think I ever noticed the end of the commercial. I'll relent a BIT on my rant.

But he's still bent over. Pushing that bag all the way home probably isn't doing wonders for his back either. That said, I hope he hurts his back.

If I was in the market for a Ford right now, I'd deliberately not buy it from universal because their radio ads are so damn stupid and annoying. I want to de-bark the loser that voices them.

For anyone in Ontario, those LCBO summer "tiki-licious" commercials on the radio are driving me nuts. They come on just about every break.
